Locating triarchic model constructs in the hierarchical structure of a comprehensive trait-based psychopathy measure: Implications for research and clinical assessment.

The triarchic model posits that distinct trait constructs of boldness, meanness, and disinhibition underlie psychopathy. The triarchic model traits are conceptualized as biobehavioral dimensions that can be assessed using different sets of indicators from alternative measurement modalities; as such, the triarchic model would hypothesize that these traits are not confined to any one item set. The present study tested whether the triarchic model dimensions would emerge from a hierarchical-structural analysis of the facet scales of the Elemental Psychopathy Assessment (EPA), an inventory designed to comprehensively index psychopathy according to the five-factor personality model. Study participants (Ns = 811, 170) completed the EPA and three different scale sets assessing the triarchic traits along with criterion measures of antisocial/externalizing behaviors. Bass-ackwards modeling of the EPA facet scales revealed a four-level structure, with factors at the third level appearing similar to the triarchic trait dimensions. An analysis in which scores for the Level-3 EPA factors were regressed onto corresponding latent-trait dimensions defined using the different triarchic scale sets revealed extremely high convergence (βs = .84-.91). The Level-3 EPA factors also evidenced validity in relation to relevant criteria, approximating and sometimes exceeding that evident for the Level-4 EPA factors. Together, these results indicate that the triarchic trait constructs are embedded in a psychopathy inventory designed to align with a general personality model and effectively predict pertinent external criteria.

SEMANTIC PORTRAIT OF WAINAMOINEN IN ENGLISH TRANSLATIONS OF “KALEVALA”

The article presents a comparative analysis of the semantic portraits of the singer and the cultural hero Wainamoinen in two English translations of the epic “Kalevala” made by William Forsell Kirby and John Martin Crawford. Following a certain algorithm, the different-structured nominations of the hero are classified and subjected to component analysis, through which an inventory of semes and semes’ specifiers is fixed, which allows to identify isomorphic and allomorphic characteristics in the portraits of the hero. The study shows that the dominant position in the semantic portrait of Wainamoinen is occupied by the so-called song space of the hero, since singing is the main activity of Wainamoinen by means of which he influences the surrounding world. The semantic portrait of Wainamoinen is a four-level structure, including nominations (1) characterizing him as a singer, (2) characterizing his singing, (3) characterizing the process of his singing and (4) characterizing functions of his singing. The study also demonstrates an importance of nominations which have the structure of a sentence and super-phrasal unity. They allow to fix additional semes in lexical nominations. The article concludes that the semantic allomorphs of Wainamoinen’s portrait characteristics are determined by both linguistic aspects (the choice of the source text for translation: original text in the Finnish language and the interlinear translation in German) and extralinguistic aspects: differences between British and American lingua cultures and personal preferences of each translator.

Methods of Adaptive Management of Smart Enterprise Using Weak Signals

The methods of adaptive management of a smart enterprise are considered, and approaches to the management of the enterprise are defined, which, due to the monitoring of the surrounding environment and the forecast of the consequences of the implementation of management decisions, ensures the effective management of the enterprise in conditions of increasing instability of the external environment. The main characteristics of smart production are highlighted, including intelligent response, operational assets, adaptability, information availability, collection and processing of information in real time. A basic four-level structure of a smart enterprise management system using weak signals has been developed, which, due to the combination of the global Internet, wireless networks with transmitters, executive mechanisms and the external environment, ensures the collection, storage and processing of data and management of the enterprise in real time. A program has been developed for evaluating the signals of the surrounding environment, calculating the integrated signal of influence on the smart enterprise.

Toward a Methodology for Social Sustainability Assessment: a Review of Existing Frameworks and a Proposal for a Catalog of Criteria

Social sustainability and, in particular, its measurement and reporting are gaining importance in society, politics and business but are facing major challenges. This is because there are no standardized and uniform approaches or frameworks. The existing approaches cover social issues, but no systematic presentation has been proposed. Moreover, there is no approach that can be applied in both management accounting and financial reporting. The aim of this paper is to present a catalog of criteria for addressing this issue and thus to close the research gap. For this purpose, frameworks utilizing catalogs of criteria for social sustainability assessment and reporting are analyzed and critically reviewed. One major weakness found is that all frameworks are oriented around only socially protected values in their catalogs. As social sustainability is focused on the impact on stakeholders, these are frequently missed. One solution to this problem is to adopt a 1:1 ratio of socially protected values to stakeholders, which is developed and described in this paper via a catalog of criteria. Furthermore, a systematic presentation of social issues using a four-level structure is proposed. Social indicators are, in turn, assigned to subcategories, to supercategories, and finally to stakeholders. This not only improves transparency and comprehensibility but also simplifies decision-making. A procedure model for the application of the catalog is also suggested. Such a catalog has not been described in previous research.

Modeling of neodymium-doped wideband fiber amplifier gain spectrum and numerical simulation optimization based on Matlab genetic algorithm: 1300-1400 nm peak gain maximization

The gain spectrum of the neodymium-doped wideband fiber amplifier was modeled and simulated by Matlab, and the intelligent optimization algorithm (genetic algorithm) included in Matlab was used to optimize the fiber length and doping concentration to maximize the peak gain (find the optimal fiber length and doping concentration within the set range). According to the set signal optical wavelength range (1300 nm~1400 nm) and the corresponding neodymium ions four-level transition structure, the pump optical wavelength (800 nm) is designed and the four-level structure rate equation and power propagation equation are established, and Matlab programming calculates the change of gain with fiber length, neodymium ions doping concentration and pump optical power. According to the obtained gain curve, it can be inferred that under the parameter range set in this study, the gain of the neodymium-doped fiber amplifier increases significantly with fiber length and neodymium ions doping concentration, while the pump optical power has almost no effect on the gain value.

Genesis of Harm and Losses in Civil Law Doctrine. The Factor of European Science

The works of the first Russian jurists on the problem of compensation for damages in civil law are not sufficiently used in scientific works on this topic. This article can fill in the gaps and be of interest to specialists in this field of research. The author has studied and compared the main works on civil law compensation published before the revolution of 1917. It was found that the science of civil law has moved away from the consideration of universal claims for damages as a remedy and focused on the interpretation of damages as a sanction for an offense. Modern authors repeat the four-level structure of consideration of compensation cases adopted and developed in the Soviet period and the influence of the following conditions: illegality, causality, guilt, proven material damage, lost profit. The author comes to the conclusion that it is necessary to return to the ideas that existed before the Russian Revolution and use them to improve the existing theory of compensation for damages and losses.Russian pre-Soviet civil law initially proceeded from the concept of responsibility only for behavior, since the category of «illegal actions» was introduced in Article 684 of the Code of Laws of the Russian Empire. Due to the developing industry, separate laws provided for payment as the equivalent of property losses for any material damage from dangerous activities, that is, for the materialized risk. In the Draft civil code of the Russian Empire, branched norms on responsibility for lawful actions appeared. A proper scientific generalization of this approach and phenomenon has not yet been made. The Civil Code of the Russian Federation has a norm on compensation for damage due to lawful actions, when it is specified in the law, but not on recovery of damages.

Guarantees of implementation and protection of the administrative and legal status of a private natural person in the public sphere

It is indicated that in the theory of law there are still quite relevant discussions regarding the definition of the criteria for the relationship and delimitation of such categories as “mechanism of legal regulation” and “mechanism of implementation and protection of the legal status of a citizen”. According to separate unified approaches to the criteria for distinguishing such categories, it is emphasized that, in general, the mechanism of legal regulation should be considered as a basic element of the mechanism of implementation and protection of the legal status of a citizen. The mechanism of legal regulation establishes the general principles of the implementation and protection of human rights and freedoms in a sphere independent of social legal relations, defining the fundamental principles of human and citizen participation, establishing a system of law enforcement and human rights protection means and methods of implementation and protection of the legal status of a private person.
 It has been proven that the system of guarantees for the implementation and protection of the administrative-legal status of a private natural person in the public sphere has a four-level structure, to which the level of regulatory regulation, institutional definition of the system, procedural order and the level of law enforcement are possible. At the administrative-legal level of the administrative-legal mechanism, ensuring the rights, freedoms and interests of private individuals is actually carried out with the help of a certain set of legal norms that provide guarantees for the exercise of subjective public rights in power-management relations. At the institutional level of administrative-legal regulation of the exercise and protection of subjective public rights, a private person is a certain set of state authorities and local self-government bodies (i.e., public administration bodies) that are obliged to perform the tasks of ensuring and promoting the realization of the administrative-legal status of a person and a citizen of Ukraine. The third level of the system of guarantees for the implementation and protection of the subjective public rights of a private person is the administrative-procedural (management) level, which includes a certain set of administrative procedures that allow the realization of the rights, freedoms and interests of non-authoritative subjects of administrative law.The law-enforcement level of the normative-legal mechanism for the protection of subjective public rights, freedoms and interests of individuals and legal entities includes a set of administrative and administrative-judicial procedures that allow to guarantee the realization of the rights, freedoms and interests of non-authoritative subjects of administrative law at the appropriate level of efficiency.

Composer’s Work with Verbal Component in Vocal Opus in Aspect of the Language Levels Theory

Relevance of research. The composer's work with a verbal source in vocal composition can be viewed from two positions. The first of them concerns the structure of the text, its components and their characteristics, punctuation, the specifics of visual graphics etc. The other position connects with meaning and interpretation. When semantic component is considered, the traditional methods, which were formed mainly on the material of the classical and romantic period, remain basic. For vocal compositions of the 20th –21st centuries composers’ work with the structure of the verbal source becomes indicative. But it is impossible to explain these changes with traditional analytical tools. Therefore, it is necessarily to form original method of vocal compositions analysis, which directs for fixing and explaining such structural changes.
 The purpose of the study. The purpose of the article is presentation of analyzing method of composers’ work with a verbal component in a vocal opus based on the linguistic concept of language levels.
 Methods. The article uses general scientific and special scientific research methods. Among the general scientific methods descriptive, comparative, systemic are used. Among the special ones structural and functional are used. The structural method gives possible to consider verbal language as a four-level structure that exists due to a combination of located at different levels elements. The functional method is involved to identify the primary function of each of the elements and made by composer changes.
 The results and conclusions. A composer has possibility to work with verbal text on four language levels: phonological, morphological, lexical-semantic and syntactic. Each level requires attention to its basic elements: phonemes, morphemes, words and sentences. Accordingly, analyzing the element with which a composer works, we reach a certain language level. It gives for us possibility to understand what is important for the composer: to convey the meaning of the verbal series; to present one word from which all morphemes and phonemes will emerge; to demonstrate extraction of one phoneme, etc. Often composers are not limited to changes at one language level, but move from one to another one. The proposing method of analysis is demonstrated on the examples from vocal works by Ivan Karabits, Ludmila Yurina, Leonid Grabovskyi, Carola Bauckhold.

Wenzhang Traditions and the Theoretical Reconstruction of Modern Chinese Prose (Sanwen)

Underlying modern Chinese sanwen (or prose) are long-established wenzhang traditions. Emerging in the transformation from traditional wenzhang to modern literature, modern Chinese sanwen had gone through a complicated process before acquiring its atypical stylistic characteristics and being relegated to a marginal place in modern literature. Nevertheless, this has also provided it with the possibility of breaking through its current dilemma. A reconstructed theory of Chinese sanwen must center on the core of “the person—the writings,” to build a four-level theoretical structure comprised of knowledge and experience, thought and emotion, spirit and mind realm, and style and form. It should also draw on the wisdoms of traditional Chinese thought and art and incorporate the historical characteristics of wenzhang (its basis on the Dao or Way, connection with history, engagement with reality, and manifestation in literature), so as to pave a path between the person and the writings and establish a viable evaluative sanwen discourse system with Chinese characteristics.

Mathematical competence and mathematical abilities: structural relations and development methodology

In the presented work, the concept of mathematical abilities is rational as both an essential internal characteristic of mathematical competence and an immanent attribute that prevails in its personal and psychological dimension. In view of the spatial Cartesian implementation the role and place of mathematical abilities in the three-dimensional structure of the internal manifestation of mathematical competence are substantiated. The semantic and system analysis of structural components of the studied phenomenon is made. It is established that complex correlations of four structural components of mathematical abilities (system-forming, coding-formalized, cognitive-generalizing, mnemonic-generalizing) can exist with three dimensions of the external manifestation of mathematical competence (semantic-theoretical, procedural-active, personal-psychological). It is introduced that the development of mathematical abilities is provided by updating the external dimensions of mathematical competence in educational and mathematical activities. The method of developing the mathematical abilities of students is presented according to the results of the implementation of this idea and the principle of developmental continuity. The basis of this technique is the developmental-problem method of teaching mathematics as a four-level problem structure which embodies the methods of mathematical and educational (educational-theoretical) modeling, the method of ascent from the abstract to the concrete, provides a reflection of the process and results of educational and mathematical activities. Due to the problem raised in the work the authors highlight the content and results of a pilot study on the development of mathematical abilities of future mathematics teachers (freshmen and graduates). The effectiveness of the created developmental methods of mathematical education was experimentally tested.

Phage Display Affibodies Combined with AuNPs@Ru(bpy)32+ for Ultra-Sensitive Electrochemiluminescence Detection of Abrin

Abrin is a cytotoxin with strong lethality, which is a serious threat to human health and public safety, and thus, highly sensitive detection methods are urgently needed. The phage display affibody has two major modules, among which, the affibody fragment, with small molecular weight, high affinity and easy preparation, can be used for the specific recognition of the target, and the phage shell, with numerous protein copies, can be used as a carrier for the massive enrichment of signal molecules, and thus is particularly suitable as a sensitive probe for signal amplification in high-sensitivity biosensors. In this study, with antibody-coated magnetic microspheres as capture probes, Ru(bpy)32+ and biotin dual-labeled phage display affibodies as the specific signal probes and AuNPs@Ru(bpy)32+ (Ru(bpy)32+-coated gold nanoparticles) as the signal amplification nanomaterials, a new electrochemiluminescence (ECL) biosensor with a four-level sandwich structure of “magnetic capture probe-abrin-phage display affibody-AuNPs@Ru(bpy)32+” was constructed for abrin detection. In this detection mode, AuNPs@Ru(bpy)32+, a gold nanocomposite prepared rapidly via electrical interaction, contained an extremely high density of signal molecules, and the phage display affibodies with powerful loading capacity were not only labeled with Ru(bpy)32+, but also enriched with AuNPs@Ru(bpy)32+ in large amounts. These designs greatly improved the detection capability of the sensor, ultimately achieving the ultra-sensitive detection of abrin. The limit of detection (LOD) was 4.1 fg/mL (3δ/S), and the quantification range was from 5 fg/mL to 5 pg/mL. The sensor had good reproducibility and specificity and performed well in the test of simulated samples. This study expanded the application of affibodies in the field of biosensing and also deeply explored the signal amplification potential of phage display technology, which is of high value for the construction of simple and efficient sensors with high sensitivity.

Valorization of Cattle Slaughtering Industry By-Products: Modification of the Functional Properties and Structural Characteristics of Cowhide Gelatin Induced by High Hydrostatic Pressure.

This study investigates the effects of different pressures (200, 250, 300, 350, and 400 MPa) and durations (5, 10, 15, 20, and 25 min) on the functional properties, secondary structure, and intermolecular forces of cowhide gelatin. Our results show that high hydrostatic pressure significantly affected the two, three, and four-level structures of gelatin and caused the contents of the α-helix and β-turn to decrease by 68.86% and 78.58%, respectively (p < 0.05). In particular, the gelatin at 300 MPa for 15 min had the highest gel strength, emulsification, solubility, and foaming of all the treatment conditions under study. The analysis of the surface hydrophobicity, sulfhydryl content, zeta potential, and Raman spectroscopy shows that at a pressure of 300 MPa (15 min), the hydrogen bonds and hydrophobic interactions between collagen molecules are strongly destroyed, leading to changes in the tertiary and quaternary conformation of the protein and unfolding, with the electrostatic repulsion between protein particles making the decentralized state stable. In conclusion, moderate pressure and time can significantly improve the functional and structural properties of collagen, which provides theoretical support and guidance for realizing the high-value utilization of cowhide.

Тhe coherence between the novel and short prose of alternative history: segmentation of the meta-genre as the internal architecture of the work

The article is devoted to the comparative analysis of the expression connections of architectonic components in short and novel prose. The purpose of this article is to to demonstrate in a comparative way the concepts of segmentation of the AI ​​meta-genre in T. Fermes' short prose, O. Menshova, V. Kozhelianko in comparison with the works of short prose, the paradigm of views on this concept in different historical and cultural milestones and their extrapolation in contemporary literature. The novelty of the article lies in the fact that Here, for the first time, chronotopic concepts in short prose of the meta-genre of alternative history are considered in comparison with novel prose AI. Research methods are a complex of comparative, descriptive, historical and literary approaches. Conclusions. Based on the study of the modern functioning of genealogy in extensive domestic and foreign literary and literary discourse, it is possible to develop potential of Russian comparative studies: avoiding the danger of falling into the trap of "literary timeless" theoretical analytical principles; in the course of the analysis, it was concluded that, by defining the genre marking of prose, should take into account not only the features of poetics in the context of the four-level structure of prose, but also the temporal the context of the work, its cultural background, literary area or direction. in which the writer analyzes mainly works, and aimed at recipients of a hidden conceptual and symbolic set of the analyzed alternative history meta-genre literature; there is a set of architectonic features of novel prose AI transferred to short form compositions, which is why the chronotope of the latter is subject to modification

Precise Community-Based Public Health Management: Crucial Experience Responding to COVID-19 in Wuhan, China.

IntroductionFacing a grim public challenge caused by COVID-19, many countries decide to live with it for a long time, whereas China continues to enforce precise community-based public health management. This paper summarized China’s approaches and aimed to provide illumination for health services decision-makers.MethodsWe systematically reviewed the construction of precise community-based public health management from three aspects: organizational structure, service content, and flexible adjustment, and summed up four essential elements for success. Then, we selected 9 typical countries to compare their non-pharmaceutical strategies and daily new cases.ResultsChina’s community-based public health management has a clear four-level organizational structure. It has worked on infection control, surveillance for new cases, management of contacts, health education, medicare service, outdoor environment disinfection, and living material supply in different stages, and the daily new confirmed cases in Wuhan sustainedly declined to zero. The outbreak was relatively well contained in China, Italy, and Germany as of June 2020, as they adopted stricter movement restrictions, social distance, and patient tracking.ConclusionChina’s experience has proved the feasibility of non-pharmaceutical strategies responding to COVID-19. The precise community-based public health management strategy can be considered, as it’s pretty much the same as public health and social measures (PHSMs) advocated by WHO.

Theoretical analysis of tunable double plasmon induced transparency in three-ellipse-shaped resonator coupled waveguide

The tunable double plasmon-induced transparency (PIT) effects are investigated in a waveguide coupled by the three ellipse-shaped resonators. By the finite element method, we study the influences of coupling modes of the three ellipse-shaped resonators, waveguide structure parameters and the refractive indices of dielectric in three ellipse-shaped resonators on double PIT effects. The waveguide structure consists of three ellipse-shaped resonators, and is similar to a four-level structure of the atomic system. The bottom ellipse-shaped resonator can be named a bright mode, the middle and top ellipse-shaped resonators each can be seen as a dark mode. In order to obtain an ideal double PIT transparency window, we also numerically analyze the optical transmission characteristics of structures of several three-ellipse-shaped resonator coupled waveguides. Furthermore, we mainly discuss the transmission spectra in the better three-ellipse-shaped resonator coupled waveguide structure as a function of the radii of the long axis in ellipse-shaped resonators, the coupling distance between the bottom ellipse-shaped resonator and the bus waveguide, the coupling distance between ellipse-shaped resonators, and the symmetry broken degree. In addition, we also consider the effect of the refractive indices of dielectric in three ellipse-shaped resonators on double PIT spectra. It is found that the transmission spectra in the three-ellipse-shaped resonator coupled waveguide have obvious red shift when the refractive indices of dielectric in the three ellipse-shaped resonators increase. All the simulation results may provide the theoretical basis for the potential application of multiple PIT in plasma switches and sensors.

Power considerations for generalized estimating equations analyses of four-level cluster randomized trials.

In this article, we develop methods for sample size and power calculations in four-level intervention studies when intervention assignment is carried out at any level, with a particular focus on cluster randomized trials (CRTs). CRTs involving four levels are becoming popular in healthcare research, where the effects are measured, for example, from evaluations (level 1) within participants (level 2) in divisions (level 3) that are nested in clusters (level 4). In such multilevel CRTs, we consider three types of intraclass correlations between different evaluations to account for such clustering: that of the same participant, that of different participants from the same division, and that of different participants from different divisions in the same cluster. Assuming arbitrary link and variance functions, with the proposed correlation structure as the true correlation structure, closed-form sample size formulas for randomization carried out at any level (including individually randomized trials within a four-level clustered structure) are derived based on the generalized estimating equations approach using the model-based variance and using the sandwich variance with an independence working correlation matrix. We demonstrate that empirical power corresponds well with that predicted by the proposed method for as few as eight clusters, when data are analyzed using the matrix-adjusted estimating equations for the correlation parameters with a bias-corrected sandwich variance estimator, under both balanced and unbalanceddesigns.

Fractal structure and hydration-driven shape memory of duck down in the dry–wet state

Duck down, as a natural keratin material, has been widely used as a filling material. The multilevel bifurcation structure of down has been observed and characterized through scanning electron microscopy. The structure is a complex fractal structure composed of four-level self-similar structures including five units, that is, the calamus, main barb, barb, barbule, and node or prong. The differential friction effect of the dynamic friction coefficients of the barb was reduced from 0.4 (dry state) to 0.23 (wet state), namely a decrease of 42.5%. The friction locking effect decreases due to the swelling of the fiber diameter. The down is zero gravity in water, and under the action of vibration and internal stress, down that has been subjected to friction or heat setting treatment can quickly return to its original shape in water. This shape memory mechanism was further confirmed, in which down after heat setting can restore its shape to the natural state by shaking it quickly and vigorously. This research provides inspiration to investigate more complicated functions of natural materials and encourages the creation of very intelligent synthetic polymers.

Research and Development of Metrological Assurance Elements for Leeb Hardness Measurements

This article is devoted to contemporary topics of ensuring the uniformity of Leeb hardness measurements. The analysis of the physical principles of the Leeb hardness test is carried out, and the influence of the measuring transducer parameters on the measurement results is investigated. A four-level structure of the calibration hierarchy for the Leeb hardness scales is proposed, which ensures metrological traceability of hardness scales from the calibration reference machines (CRMs) to measuring instruments. A list of requirements for the 2nd grade CRM and the 2nd grade Leeb reference test blocks are formulated in accordance with the proposed calibration hierarchy draft and their values are calculated. A prototype was developed and a model of the 2nd grade Leeb hardness CRM and a set of Leeb reference test blocks were manufactured, as well as the compliance of their metrological characteristics with the requirements of the proposed calibration hierarchy draft and international standards was confirmed. The results of this work allow us to ensure the uniformity and reliability of the Leeb hardness measurements.

Structural and contextual model of a concept

The central notion of the cognitive linguistics “concept” has been defined in a number of ways thus the authors suggest the unique way to treat its structure and content. The article provides the interpretation variability of a concept taking into account two approaches – lingual and cultural and semantic and cognitive one which construct cognitive and discourse vector lying in the dimension of both cognition and communication. Whereas the content of a concept is carried out via multidimensional (thinking and speaking in the first place) activity of a person the work considers its structure (imaginary, notional, axiological and adorative (secret) components being in a harmonious unity with the structure of a communicative personality (pragmatic-motivational, cognitive, verbal-semantic, transcendental levels). Concept is a coherent ethnic and mental unit possessing complex four-level structure. It implies interaction and interrelation between a concept and communicative personality, their two-side hierarchical connection particularly using spiritual halo. The following research methods were used in the work: observation, induction and deduction, analysis and synthesis, modelling method, which are necessary for the objective scientific definition of the subject in question; cognitive and discourse analysis. The article provides stratification of a concept in connection with the structure of communicative personality.
