Social support via Internet communication technology for diabetes self-management: a scoping review.

The global prevalence of diabetes has been increasing over the past 30 years, leading to a rise in complications; diabetes is the leading cause of amputations, blindness, and kidney failure in developed countries. Diabetes self-management is challenging due to the complex lifestyle changes required. Social support from family and friends plays a crucial role in overcoming barriers to healthy behavior choices. Integrating Internet and communication technologies with social support interventions has the potential to improve diabetes self-management. A scoping review was conducted by searching PubMed, Ovid, Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature (CINAHL), and Association for Computing Machinery (ACM) Digital Library databases for studies combining diabetes, Internet and communication technologies, and social support interventions. Inclusion criteria focused on adult patients with diabetes and primarily Internet and communication technologies-based strategies to initiate and enhance social support. Data abstraction included study population, design, outcomes, social support domains emphasized, support relationship intervention strategy, and Internet and communication technologies modality. The review identified 39 articles and 33 unique studies representing 27 unique interventions utilizing peer web forums, interactive voice recordings, messaging-based interventions (including Short Message Service and instant messaging), and email as Internet and communication technologies modalities. Various outcomes were reported, including improvements in perception of social support, psychosocial well-being, behavior changes, and clinical outcomes. Existing support relationships may be more effective in promoting behavior change and clinical outcomes compared to developing new relationships. Studies that explicitly measured patients' perception of support consistently showed improvements in psycho-social, behavioral, and clinical outcomes. This scoping review highlights the pivotal role of social support in diabetes self-management. By integrating Internet and communication technologies into interventions, diverse modalities such as web forums and text messaging have shown promise in enhancing patients' perception of support and improving psychosocial well-being, behavior changes, and clinical outcomes. The emphasis on leveraging existing support relationships, rather than establishing new ones, underscores the effectiveness of personalized, patient-centered approaches. These findings provide essential insights for healthcare strategies, emphasizing the need to harness technology and existing social networks to empower individuals in managing diabetes effectively.

Are people's COVID-19 attitudes discriminatory or justified? A thematic analysis of New Zealander's responses to the pandemic

The rise of Covid-19 as a global pandemic in 2020 quickly disrupted nations across the world and heralded extensive media coverage. The coverage explored the consequences of those that become infected and the effect of the virus on nations afflicted by Covid-19's spread. Here in New Zealand, the discussion of the virus and its effects occurred across a range of social media platforms, including the comments area for articles posted by The New Zealand Herald on their Facebook Page. The concern is raised that the proliferation of information now primarily driven across internet communication channels and dominated by social media complicated the ability of a population to easily distinguish information from either that of disinformation or misinformation. This condition, known as an infodemic, gave rise to an increase in discourse that included heightened distrust, racism, condemnation, and general public outcry. To understand the impact of this on New Zealand's attitudes to the Covid-19 pandemic, articles uploaded to social media between January 30 to February 6, 2020, were thematically analyzed to understand the nature of the discourse exchanged as the virus propagated around the world. Our analysis of approximately 10,300 Facebook comments revealed four themes: Our Safety is Paramount; Media is fear-mongering, Government is inactive, & Blame China. These themes revealed that New Zealand audiences were acting in prejudiced ways based often on incorrect information and perceived media scaremongering.

Marxist Internet Communication and Youth Ideology Education

Abstract Enhancing the mainstream ideological identity of young people is an unavoidable issue in the ideological construction of socialism with Chinese characteristics in the new era, which is closely related to strengthening the national identity and expanding the mainstream ideological positions. In this paper, we refer to the E-learning platform framework to design a Marxism online learning platform to achieve the online dissemination of Marxism and ideological education for youth. The HRNN model is utilized to extract and identify the behavioral traits of youth on the Marxism learning platform and investigate the link between youth behavior and ideological identity. The results of the study show that the Marxist online learning platform has a better communication effect and can improve the identification of the youth group with Marxist ideology. Meanwhile, the correlation analysis shows that there is a significant correlation between video viewing completion, quiz completion, and ideological identity (P=0.000), which is highly positive. The suggestions put forward in this paper regarding communication management, communication technology, and publicity provide a reference for further online communication of Marxism and lay the foundation for the enhancement of youth ideology education.

Связь моральной направленности принимаемых решений в ситуациях потенциального кибербуллинга с индивидуально-психологическими особенностями студентов

Background. The Internet environment creates a special reality for communication, in which socially accepted systems of norms and values are often no longer valid. In conflict situations, the anonymity of Internet communication may reduce the degree of personal moral responsibility for the “digital deeds” and lead to the choice of unethical ways of behaviour, which include cyberbullying. Highlighting the system of cognitive and personal factors involved in the regulation of the moral orientation of behaviour in online communication is an urgent scientific task. Objective. The aim is to explore the regulation of moral orientation in decision-making in situations containing possibility of cyberbullying. The following psychological features of students are considered: the level of moral development, the level of communicative skill development, the perception of cyberbullying as a phenomenon. Study Participants. The sample included 85 respondents of varying ages, ranging from 18 to 26 years old (M = 21; SD = 1.8). Methods. The study engaged the following materials: the “Justice-Care” technique by S.V. Molchanov; communication skills test by L. Michelson (adapted by Yu.Z. Gilbukh); authors' techniques “Open questions” and “Case-method” applied for identifying the content of ideas about cyberbullying and orientation of decision-making (ethical/unethical) in situations of potential cyberbullying. Results. A significant positive correlation (ρ-Spearman; p < 0.05) was found between the ethical choice of decisions in situations of potential cyberbullying, subscales of moral development (“Self-sacrifice”, “Self-respect”) and the content of ideas about cyberbullying. Moreover, significant negative correlations (ρ-Spearman; p < 0.05) were identified between the unethical choices in the investigated situations, subscale of “Preconventional” level of moral development, and communication skills. Conclusions. The moral orientation of the decisions we make in situations of potential cyberbullying is significantly related to the following individual psychological features of students: (1) students who often choose ethical decisions have fully formed ideas about cyberbullying as a phenomenon, they do not prioritize their own interests and consider the values of others; (2) students who choose unethical decisions have low level of development of communication skills, look for personal gain in communication and less often consider the values of other people.

SHA-256 Hash Function on Intel DE10 Lite FPGA

Abstract: The SHA-256 hash function is a standardized and trusted algorithm that takes a set of data and produces a unique, deterministic, and irreversible representation called a hash or digest. A component of other protocols, SHA-256 protects password storage, secures and verifies Bitcoin transactions, and authenticates internet communication. We did a thorough analysis of the hash function and a preexisting Verilog implementation at the algorithmic, architectural, and circuit levels to identify and address the bottlenecks. We propose a new SHA-256 hardware architecture that utilizes binary tree structured adder trees to speed up hash computation. The proposed design targets Intel DE10-Lite FPGA and achieves 23% increase in computation speed. In applications, this can offer faster online communication or a more secure Bitcoin network.

Tracking sustainable Industry 4.0 for listed companies

The goal of this study is to develop replicable methodology to diagnose sustainable Industry 4.0 status in listed companies. Quantitative content analysis using MAXQDA software was applied. The content of documents was mapped according to the predefined set of keywords (dictionary) and categories with lemmatization of keywords. Both annual reports and Internet news were analysed. Finally, quantitative analysis of keywords occurrence was performed, and descriptive statistics with correlation analysis was presented comparing findings for annual reports and Internet news. The methodology was demonstrated based on companies listed on the Warsaw Stock Exchange, representing ca. two thirds of total market capitalization and many different sectors. Communication in annual reports and Internet news exhibited in-consistencies and dependent on or influenced by company’s characteristics. The re-search effectively addressed research questions regarding the inclusion of Industry 4.0 and sustainability issues in company’s report and Internet communication. A limitation of the presented study is the lack of a qualitative perspective to explain potential phenomena underlying the uncovered potential correlations. Nonetheless, the methodology can serve signals for policymakers, to position economies in different countries concerning Industry 4.0 and sustainability. Furthermore, the presented re-search demonstrates excellent potential for replicability and traceability. It can be applied to other indices for sample selection, comparative analyses of sectors and branches, explore markets, and enable year-to-year comparisons.

РЕКУРЕНТНІСТЬ ЯК ОДИН ІЗ ОСНОВНИХ СИНТАКСИЧНО-СТИЛІСТИЧНИХ ЗАСОБІВ У ПОБУДОВІ ТЕКСТІВ

The article provides a general analysis of the research of Ukrainian and foreign linguists on the study of such a stylistic tool as repetition. A description of the phe-nomenon of recurrence and its defi nition are given. In linguistics, the phenomenon of recurrence is described as one of the sources of enrichment of stylistic means of language. By deliberately and precisely repeating units of speech, the author manages to strengthen the power of his opinion and exag-gerate his feelings. Repetition is the most common, oldest stylistic device in fi ction, and masters of the word used it to express a subjective attitude to the depicted object, to evaluate it, to attract the attention of the listener or reader. Recurrence is the repeti-tion of textual, compositional or thematic units with a certain artistic and aesthetic purpose, marked in the form of fi gurative and thematic repetitions. It is the most used syntactic and stylistic fi gure in the language of artistic and journalistic works.Repetitive units at any level are signifi cant in literary and journalistic texts, in Internet communication, in spoken language. They are distinguished phonetically, into-nationally and graphically, attracting the attention of the recipient and always expressing important intentions of the speaker. Recurrence is defi ned as a fi gure of speech, which consists in the repetition of sounds, words and expressions in a certain sequence, that is, the repetition is diverse in structure. It manifests itself at diff erent levels of speech. In the system of repeating units of the Ukrainian language, every link is important.The peculiarity of recurrence as a stylistic technique consists in strengthening and anchoring the statement in the mind of the reader, in appealing to his emotions, feelings and moods. It is not only a stylistic fi gure, it is an emotionally colored model of pressure on the reader’s subconsciousness, which should be used in the text in a certain place and at a certain time. Therefore, the main stylistic function of this phe-nomenon is the function of enhancing the emotional and aesthetic impact.The issue of recurrence lies at the junction of various disciplines and scientifi c directions, besides it does not limit its theoretical and practical study, but, on the con-trary, contributes to the constant search for new research aspects

Ensuring Legal Safeguards for Digitalized Social Services within the Framework of Government Decentralization

The purpose of the study is to digitize the social services system in the context of decentralization of power: legal regulation and areas of improvement. Main content. It has been established that new online services are being introduced in Ukraine to enable consumers to receive such services virtually. In our opinion, in the future, these services should simplify the procedure for access to them, taking into account the entities which are primarily interested in using them, and expand the scope of their provision: from informing the consumer to obtaining the result. The society and science development requires the introduction of new technologies into the service system. It has been concluded that the need to use information technologies in judicial proceedings is due to the global informational support of modern society, and development of new interaction forms in the social area using electronic means of communication: the global Internet, mobile and satellite communication systems. The author reveals the essence of "Portal Diia", which is introduced within the framework of the Unified Social Information System of a single electronic document in the social matters, and highlighted the disadvantage of this application: ensuring the protection of personal data, and access to information about the citizen sphere of interests accumulated in computer networks.
