PECULIARITIES OF FORMATION OF THE COMPANY’S PERSONNEL RESERVE IN THE FIELD OF STAFF MOTIVATION

It is noted that the main value of any enterprise is usually considered to be its employees, and the enterprise itself is viewed not as a mechanism for making a profit, but as a way of organizing people and their potential. New requirements for the training and retraining of management personnel are identified. HRmanagement as a science that focuses on human resources, their formation and development in accordance with the strategic goal of the enterprise is revealed. The choice of sources of formation of the personnel reserve is allocated. It is noted that an employer at any enterprise, when forming a personnel reserve, needs to make a choice and prioritize among the sources of formation. It is substantiated that when forming a personnel reserve, the choice is always made in favor of hiring new employees. It is noted that the purpose of the declared activity is aimed at improving the economic result of the organization (even if indirectly) and at avoiding mistakes when working with the reserve. The theoretical approaches to the content and mechanism of formation of the personnel reserve are investigated. The sources of formation of the personnel reserve, advantages and disadvantages of the internal personnel reserve are analyzed. It is established that the potential reserve is formed by managers, specialists, and workers who meet the basic requirements in terms of education, specialty, and height. It is determined that the talent pool is closely related to increasing the motivation of employees who are aware of the seriousness of the prospects for professional and career growth at the enterprise. Attention is focused on the criteria for forming an internal reserve and assessing the effectiveness of work with the personnel reserve. The article highlights the work with the talent pool on the example of private joint-stock company “Ukrainsky Grafit”, where the main regulatory document governing the mechanism of formation is the Regulations on work with personnel reserve. It is emphasized that the task of the Regulations of private joint-stock company “Ukrainsky Grafit” is to establish uniform organizational principles in working with the reserve and to create a system for training the reserve of management personnel at the enterprise. The main information sources of private joint-stock company “Ukrainsky Grafit” regarding the consideration of candidates for the personnel reserve are disclosed. It is determined that in the event of vacancies at the enterprise, the internal personnel reserve is considered first to fill the vacancy.

Public Patterns and Determinants of Antibiotic Self-Medication and Antibiotic Knowledge in Southern Jordan.

Antibiotic self-medication, which refers to acquisition and using antibiotics to treat infections based on personal experience and/or without a doctor's advice or prescription, is a significant public health issue jeopardizing patient health outcomes. The purpose of the present cross-sectional online survey was to assess the frequency of self-medication among the general public in various geographical locations in southern Jordan, as well as to examine the determinants to self-medication. The survey was distributed through several social media networks over the period November-December 2022, and included demographic information as well as items related to the use and abuse of antibiotics, information sources about antibiotics, the duration of use of antibiotics, and assessment of the public knowledge about appropriate antibiotic use. Inferential analysis, such as the Chi-Square test and logistic regression, were adopted to assess the associations between the different variables with self-medication. A total of 984 respondents were enrolled in the study. Of these, 752 had been using antibiotics during the last year. However, the self-medicating cases were 413 of the 752. The main source of information about the utilization of antibiotics among participants in the survey was pharmacists. The participants commonly (36.0%) tended to use antibiotics until the symptoms disappeared. Nearly half of the respondents reported usually taking antibiotics for treating a runny nose (rhinorrhea). The logistic regression analysis indicated that self-medication with antibiotics was significantly associated with female gender (p-value < 0.001), low educational level (p-value = 0.014), rural living location (p-value 0.003), no health insurance (p-value = 0.001) and occupation (p-value = 0.005). Meanwhile age had no significant relationship to self-medication. Finally, the results revealed poor understanding of key appropriate antibiotic usage, which inevitably influences self-medication practice. It is crucial to come up with several programs and governmental policies to suppress widespread antibiotic self-medication as it will affect the health of future generations of Jordanian citizens.

Medicalization of Sport? A Mixed-Method Study on the Use of Medications in Elite Ice Hockey.

Ice hockey is a high-risk sport known for its dominant macho culture. The purpose of this study was to examine experiences surrounding medication use among male, elite ice hockey players in Norway. A mixed-method design was employed, which first examined medications registered on doping control forms (DCFs) (n = 177) and then involved semi-structured focus group interviews (n = 5) with elite athletes (n = 25). Overall, 68% of the DCFs contained information about ≥1 medication. Among the most registered medications were NSAIDs and hypnotics (20% and 19% of all DCFs, respectively). During the interviews, numerous athletes reported using analgesics to manage injuries and pain caused by the sport, often being motivated by sacrificing themselves for the team during important matches and playoffs. Hypnotics were used due to high cumulative stress due to heavy training and competition load, late-night matches, and playing in a semi-professional league. Athlete support personnel (ASP), including physicians and trainers, were the athletes' main sources of information. The athletes often displayed a profound and non-critical trust in the advice and products provided to them by their team physician. The findings indicate that male, elite ice hockey players, through their excessive and somewhat ignorant use of medications, expose themselves to health risks and inadvertent doping.

Digital transformation of the promotion of educational services of Kazakhstani universities

Digital channels have become the modern priority channels for promoting educational services. Integration into the international educational space, changes in the priority of communication channels, and digital transformation have led to the need to rethink existing approaches to the digital promotion of educational services of Kazakhstani universities. Particular interest in modernizing the promotion of educational services is caused by the fact that representatives of the new generation, Generation Z, are now becoming consumers of educational services. The basis of this study was the analysis of digital promotion channels as the main source of information and value, the needs of generation Z, who are now becoming the main consumers of the services of universities, including those in Kazakhstan. The purpose of the study is to determine the priorities for the digital promotion of educational services, to build a model for the digital promotion of university educational services, taking into account the needs of key consumers—generation Z, digital channels, and educational programs of the university. Hypothesis: priorities for digital promotion of educational services of universities should be differentiated depending on the popularity and technical parameters of the sites. The web resources similarweb.com, pagespeed.web.dev, wordstat.yandex.ru, sitechecker.pro were used as analysis tools. A correlation analysis of queries on university websites and the core values of generation Z was carried out. The closeness of the pairwise correlation between the total number of visits and website performance, search engine optimization, recommendations, and special features was determined. Based on the research, a model for promoting the university’s educational services has been structured, highlighting key components: educational programs, digital technologies, and the values of generation Z.

ChatGPT: Artificial Intelligence as a Potential Tool for Parents Seeking Information About Autism.

Autism Spectrum Disorder has seen a drastic increase in prevalence over the past two decades, along with discourse rife with debates and misinformation. This discourse has primarily taken place online, the main source of information for parents seeking information about autism. One potential tool for navigating information is ChatGPT-4, an artificial intelligence question and answer-style communication program. Although ChatGPT shows great promise, no empirical work has evaluated its viability as a tool for providing information about autism to caregivers. The current study evaluated answers provided by ChatGPT, including basic information about autism, myths/misconceptions, and resources. Our results suggested that ChatGPT was largely correct, concise, and clear, but did not provide much actionable advice, which was further limited by inaccurate references and hyperlinks. The authors conclude that ChatGPT-4 is a viable tool for parents seeking accurate information about autism, with opportunities for improvement in actionability and reference accuracy.

Թվային հետքեր. ինչպես է զարգանում վարքագծի համացանց / Digital Footprints: How the Internet of Behavior is Evolving

Modern advanced technologies are opening up new horizons in data collection and processing. Not long ago, the main source of information about consumers was the mobile applications they used or the websites they visited. Now, it is possible to collect data about them through devices connected to the Internet. We are talking about a new concept, the Internet of Behaviour, so it is important to understand how this direction is developing and what is influencing it. The Internet of Behaviour is still a marketing direction, but it is clear that it has serious prospects in terms of management information technology, because information about users connected to the Internet can be successfully used in production and other sectors of the economy. In addition, the application of the Internet of Behaviour can give a serious boost to educational institutions, helping both learners and teachers to achieve higher performance. As you can see, the Internet of Behaviour is an extended version of the Internet of Things, which takes the level of modern technological development one step further and opens up new horizons in terms of human evolution.

Confessional contact zones of the Russian empire by counties and districts according to the results of the 1897 census

The first general population census of 1897 is the main source of information about the structure of the population of the Russian Empire at the turn of the 19th–20th centuries, including the religious composition of the population. At the same time, statistics based on the results of the census make it possible to carry out a cartographic analysis of the religious structure of the population not only at the level of provinces and regions, but at the lower administrative level (counties anddistricts). The purpose of the study is to assess the heterogeneity of the religious structure of the population of the Russian Empire at the level of counties and districts based on the results of the population census of 1897. For this purpose, a cartographic research method was used. The religious mosaic index was used as an indicator that allows dividing mono-confessional and multi-confessional territories and identifying contact zones between the areas of distribution of the main religions of the state (Christianity, Islam and Buddhism). Regions with a mixed religious composition of the population without a strong predominance of any one religion (confessional contact zones) were observed mainly in the border territories of the Russian Empire, especially in its western and southern parts. The center and north of the European part of the country, where the Orthodox population dominated, represented a mono-confessional (Orthodox) “core”.

Coronavirus disease appropriate behavior among medical representatives

Background: The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) crisis has brought many appropriate changes in the behavior of the people in India. It posed deleterious effects on nearly every industry and business sector and pharmaceutical industry is no exception. Medical representatives were facing challenges in contacting health-care providers and other concerned individuals for sales efforts during the pandemic affecting their work behaviors and outputs. Therefore, it is highly important that MRs have adequate knowledge about the COVID-19 appropriate behaviors (CABs). Aims and Objectives: The objective of our study was to assess the perception of COVID-19 appropriate behaviors (CAB), among medical representatives. Materials and Methods: The study was conducted during lockdown for a period of 3 months from May to July 2021. After obtaining Institutional approval using the CAB, published by the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, a questionnaire was designed and along with the consent form was sent to Medical Representatives to collect the information on CAB. Data from all consented voluntary participants using self-administered Google forms were collected. The data collected were reversibly coded and confidentiality of participants was maintained. Results: A total of 88 number of medical representatives (n = 88) participated in the study. Of these, 96.50% were males and all were &lt;50 years. Graduated participants constituted 96.6% (n = 85). Only 67.10% perceived it as a serious disease. Greeting without physical contact was practiced by 57 (64.7%), Namaste, by 56 (63.3%). Avoiding touching hands, nose, and mouth was considered very important by 68.9%. Covering nose and mouth when you cough or sneeze with handkerchief was considered important for 96.6%. Avoiding touching eyes, nose, and mouth was considered “not important at all” and slightly important by 2.2% and 5.6%, respectively. Discourage and avoiding crowd was thought as not important at all by 3.4% and slightly important by 2.3%. Conclusion: The medical representatives are well informed about COVID-19 disease and it is spread but only 2/3rd of the participants regarded COVID-19 as a serious condition and practiced various CABs to prevent infection spread. They considered national news and doctors as the main source of information.

Gender Economics: The Underrepresentation of Females in the Labor Force

In this paper, I study female labor force participation and consider potential threats and obstacles women face that may inhibit their participation in the labor force. This ultimately serves as the culprit and driving force for the underrepresentation of females in the labor force. My project presents the numerous factors that cause lower female labor participation, the possible benefits of increasing it, and potential solutions to overcome this economic disparity. I will analyze statistics from the World Bank by creating infographics such as scatterplots. In addition, I conduct literature reviews which serve as my main source of information.

COVID-19 information seeking a survey of residents of Chilinde and Chinsapo Townships in Malawi

The Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) outbreak spread anxiety among the general public, which was exacerbated by an excessive amount of misleading information. This study investigated the behaviour of Chilinde and Chinsapo residents in seeking COVID-19 information. The study used a quantitative research approach, whereby a modified Health Information National Trends Survey (HINTS) questionnaire was used to collect data from 627 participants. Descriptive statistics were used to summarise the characteristics of the study participants and the sources and types of COVID-19 information used. Most of the participants (71.3%, n=447) reported that they had looked for information about COVID-19 from different sources. Doctors and healthcare providers were the main sources of information on COVID-19. There were 58.1% (n=364) of participants who indicated that they were extremely worried about getting infected with COVID-19. It was further found that there was limited use of online platforms to access COVID-19 information. Multiple logistic regression results showed that male respondents had a higher chance of having online access to COVID-19 information than their female counterparts. Chilinde participants were more likely to have online access, unlike those residing in Chinsapo. This study recommends raising awareness to the masses regarding the use of reputable online sources in crisis situations in the future.

Knowledge, attitude, and practices toward malaria among hospital outpatients in Nangarhar, Afghanistan: A cross-sectional study.

In the Eastern Mediterranean region, Afghanistan ranks third for the world's highest burden of malaria. The vast majority (95%) of malaria cases in Afghanistan are attributed to Plasmodium falciparum and 5% to Plasmodium vivax. Most cases occur in low-altitude regions, especially in the eastern province of Nangarhar, where agriculture and farming are predominant. To better understand the public sentiment toward malaria, this study aimed to understand the knowledge, attitude, and practice of patients toward malaria who visited public and private hospitals of Nangarhar province. A cross-sectional descriptive study was conducted on Nangarhar residents who visited the adult Outpatient departments of eight local public and private health facilities. Data collection took place from 1st August 2022 to 15th September 2022. Of 700 participants, 37.9% (n = 265) identified as male and 62.1% (n = 435) identified as female. The majority of participants (84.6 %) were within the (18-40) age range, followed by 12.7% in the (41-60) age range, and 2.7% were aged 61 years or older. Moreover, 99.7% (n = 698) of the participants had heard of malaria. The main sources of information about malaria were family members (31.3%, n = 219), television (32.6%, n = 228), Internet (12.6%, n = 88), school (11.3%, n = 79), and health facilities (31.4%, n = 220). Most respondents correctly identified mosquito bites as the primary mode of malaria transmission (72.6%, n = 508). Others suggested that transmission could occur by close contact with a malaria patient (14.0%, n = 98) and drinking contaminated water (17.3%, n = 121). The majority of participants (70.6%) agreed that malaria is a serious and life-threatening disease. A significant number of participants (96.6%) reported owning an insecticide-treated mosquito net at home, and 87.0% reported using the net. Overall, participants reported good knowledge, attitude, and practice toward malaria. This may be linked to the awareness campaigns and preventive programs in Nangarhar province that have contributed to participant's willingness to prevent malaria and treat themselves if they get infected. Public health campaigns are difficult in Afghanistan with weak governance and conflict, and thus, populations may find themselves at risk if health promotion activities are stopped.
