The Impact of Social Media Content Quality on Brand Awareness and Purchase Intention for OCOP Products among Consumers in Ho Chi Minh City

In February 2023, The Vietnam Trade Promotion Center for Agriculture collaborated with TikTok Vietnam to build communication and promotion programs for OCOP - One Commune One Product. This is considered one of the outstanding events and has a positive impact on the campaign to elevate Vietnamese agricultural products and specialties. On the basis of these nationally significant activities, the authors conducted this research with the aim of exploring the impact of content quality on the social network Tik Tok on brand awareness and product purchase intention OCOP product, concurrently examines the mediating role of hedonic motive and utilitarian motive in these relationships. The study uses the partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) to analyze data, including 262 survey samples of users in Ho Chi Minh City who know and have watched live streams about OCOP products on Tiktok. The results show that Content quality has significant effects on brand awareness, hedonic motive and utilitarian motive. Brand awareness has an impact on purchase intention and also plays as a partial mediator between content quality and purchase intention. Besides, hedonic motives and utilitarianism both also play mediating roles in the relationship between content quality and purchase intention, and content quality and brand awareness.

The Frame for the Not-Yet Existent: How American, European, and Soviet Scholars Jointly Shaped Modern Mathematical Economics

This article tells the story of the first international topological conference in Moscow (1935), an outstanding event that, for the first time, brought together the most notable American, European, and Soviet mathematicians, including those who would later play decisive roles in the mathematization of economics: John von Neumann, Leonid Kantorovich, and Albert W. Tucker. The fact that Kantorovich was in contact with von Neumann and his closest colleagues, Solomon Lefschetz and Garrett Birkhoff, is hardly appreciated in the histories of mathematics and mathematical economics. Their brief academic exchange was interrupted by the increasing international isolation of Soviet mathematics and by the wars that ensued. The article provides a historical account of the conference and traces the intellectual and personal affinities of Soviet and non-Soviet mathematicians, as well as their conceptual innovations. It argues that the conference, as a singular event linking several research communities, mattered for the development of various formal frameworks and their dissemination, contributing to the intellectual landscape in which postwar mathematical economics could emerge. The article calls for a deeper analysis of conceptual affinities and motivations in applying mathematics to economics and for a more nuanced narrative linking these motivations to social and political contexts of economic modeling.

Alphabetical Index to the Tables of the Library and Bibliographic Classification: Theory and Practice of Formation

The article reveals the main principles of formation of the alphabetical subject index (ASI) to the tables of the Library and Bibliographic Classification (LBC). The main functions of the ASI are considered. The significance of the personality of one of the developers of the LBC of Cecilia Moiseevna Berdichevskaya in forming the potential for further development of the national classification system, ensuring its fundamentality, comprehensiveness and integrity at all stages of development is revealed. Directly C.M. Berdichevskaya prepared the original methodology of compiling subject indexes to systematic catalogues of libraries, which was later used in the creation of the ASI to the tables of the LBC. The completion of the publication of the LBC tables for scientific libraries (1960—1968) was an outstanding event in Russian librarianship. The theoretical development of the ASI to the LBC tables was most fully reflected in the “Introduction” to the classification and in articles published in special periodicals.

Субкультура молодежного протеста: парижские пригороды осенью 2005 г.

The protests of the youth of the immigrant neighborhoods in the fall of 2005 are an outstanding event in the history of the Parisian suburbs and in the political history of the Fifth Republic. Having begun as a local revolt, which flared up sporadically in the urban agglomerations of France populated mainly by immigrants from the countries of North and Tropical Africa, the events acquired the scale of a national uprising. They expanded to 300 communes, all departments of the Paris region, and responses happened in the east and west of France. There were thousands of detained and arrested participants, two hundred wounded police officers, thousands of burned cars. For three weeks the police and gendarmerie could not suppress the rebels. Some analysts, emphasizing the vandalism of the protests, call them “riots (émeutes).” Others, pointing to the scale of the protests, their duration, and the fierceness of the confrontation with the forces of law and order, propose the term “uprising (révolte)”. Both explain the vandalism of the protesters by the lack of other ways for young people to express their protest. Historians have noted the similarities between youth protests and social protest in traditional societies. In both cases, the participants sought a demonstration effect to convey to those in power the depth of their indignation. The protests sometimes took the form of festivities, accompanied by emotional release, the acquisition of self-esteem and collective identity. The rebels drew legitimacy for their actions by appealing to moral values. The article traces how deeply the actions of the 2005 rebels could match the cultural and historical typology of archaic forms of social protest.

ПИШУЩИЕ ХУДОЖНИКИ И РИСУЮЩИЕ ПИСАТЕЛИ ПЕРВОЙ ВОЛНЫ РУССКОЙ ЭМИГРАЦИИ

The authors of the article examine the phenomenon of word and image close unity in the Russian culture. The first author’s books of Russian artists were issued in the end of the XIX century. The authors of the article consider this and other outstanding events of the author’s book history to have become an independent art phenomenon which may be called “artist-writer”. Among others, the said art phenomenon is closely related to artist-illustrator creative work psychology. Thus, an artist creates as he was a joint author specifying and developing writer’s logic. Hence, there appear “illustrations ad hoc”. The authors of the article consider it to be probably the first steps to one’s proper literary author’s book. The authors claim the artists of the Russian emigration first wave to have considered word and image interaction to be natural atmosphere of their creative work. It is analyzed in the article creative work of A. M. Remizov, Yu. P. Annenkov, S.I. Sharshun, M.F. Andreenko-Nechitajlo, L. Zak, S.L. Gollerbax and D. A. Solozhev. The author claim everything specifying the Silver Age art and literature peculiarities abolished in Soviet Russia to have come to full flower in Pairs in 1920-1930s which is not accidentally considered to be the capital of the Russian emigration at that time. The authors of the article consider the Russian culture Silver Age to have lasted till the Nazi troops invaded Paris in 1940. Having returned to new Russia after a number of years passed, books of Russian emigration first wave authors contributed to spiritual and moral rebirth of the Russian world.

Citizen complaints in local media as source of mosquito data: the case of Aedes albifasciatus in an intermediate city of temperate Argentina.

Floodwater mosquitoes provoke nuisance due to their mass emergence. Citizen complaints about outstanding events of mosquitoes in urban areas are usually reflected in local media and could be potentially used as data. Our objective was to build a temperature dependent function to characterize the immature development time of the floodwater mosquito Ae. albifasciatus in Tandil (Argentina), and validate it using citizen complaints in local media and field collected mosquitoes. The development time obtained ranges from 5-47 days at 30-7°C, respectively. During 2000-2021, nine mosquito abundance peaks were identified through local journalistic records. For these events, the estimated hatching date was successfully associated with a previous precipitation, with a maximum difference of two days. The precipitation identified as the trigger for egg hatching ranged from 15 to 121 mm. Then, to associate mosquito news with the target species, female mosquitoes were captured by a battery-powered aspirator in green areas of the city during September 2019-June 2021. Six mosquito abundance peaks were detected in which Ae. albifasciatus accounted for 97.3% of the captures. Among them, journalistic records were able to detect the largest two; i.e. in our study above 15 mosquitoes in a five minute collection. Citizen complaints related to nuisance or vector species could be valuable retrospective data for researchers of different fields.

Current situation of Specialized Health Training in pediatrics and its specific areas: Challenges and needs

The development of pediatric subspecialties constitutes one of the most outstanding events in pediatrics in our country since the mid-20th century. The FSE in pediatrics is currently based on order SCO/3148/2006, of September 20, which approves and publishes the training program for the specialty of pediatrics and its Specific Areas. It is a training program structured in 4 years that manages to train the resident in the necessary skills of pediatrics, including training in transversal skills, training in general pediatrics and must also include training in different specific areas. In 1995 was approved the Specific Training Area (ACE). In pediatrics, ACEs are necessary to guarantee adequate health care for the child and adolescent population, at the same level as adult medicine, ensuring through regulated training, quality and uniform care. We want to give official recognition to what today is a healthcare reality in all the Spanish hospitals.

GRBAlpha: The smallest astrophysical space observatory

Aims. Since it launched on 22 March 2021, the 1U-sized CubeSat GRBAlpha operates and collects scientific data on high-energy transients, making it the smallest astrophysical space observatory to date. GRBAlpha is an in-orbit demonstration of a gamma-ray burst (GRB) detector concept suitably small to fit into a standard 1U volume. As was demonstrated in a companion paper, GRBAlpha adds significant value to the scientific community with accurate characterization of bright GRBs, including the recent outstanding event of GRB 221009A. Methods. The GRB detector is a 75 × 75 × 5 mm CsI(Tl) scintillator wrapped in a reflective foil (ESR) read out by an array of SiPM detectors, multi-pixel photon counters by Hamamatsu, driven by two separate redundant units. To further protect the scintillator block from sunlight and protect the SiPM detectors from particle radiation, we applied a multi-layer structure of Tedlar wrapping, anodized aluminium casing, and a lead-alloy shielding on one edge of the assembly. The setup allows observations of gamma radiation within the energy range of 70–890 keV with an energy resolution of ~30%. Results. Here, we summarize the system design of the GRBAlpha mission, including the electronics and software components of the detector, some aspects of the platform, and the current semi-autonomous operations. In addition, details are given about the raw data products and telemetry in order to encourage the community to expand the receiver network for our initiatives with GRBAlpha and related experiments.

Gerty Cori, a Life Dedicated to Chemical and Medical Research

This article shows the life and work of Gerty Cori, a woman born in Czechoslovakia and who later became a naturalized American, who spent her whole life researching, together with her husband, in the laboratory to find the cause of some diseases, particularly those of a metabolic type, and to be able to find substances that alleviate their effects. The result of this joint work was the obtaining by both, together with the physiologist Bernardo Houssay, of the Nobel Prize in Medicine or Physiology in 1947. The objective of this article is to complete the scarce existing biographies about this woman with new data that highlight the most outstanding events of her life, quite a few of which are still largely ignored. A relatively complete information on the presence of female chemists in the awarded Nobel Prizes is also shown.

Ultralow Frequency Resonators: on the 80th Anniversary of the Discovery of Alfvén Waves

The concept of Alfvén waves, introduced into science 80 years ago, played an important role in the formation and development of cosmic electrodynamics. Alfvén waves differ in that at each point in space the group velocity vector and the vector of the external magnetic field are collinear to each other, due to which the waves can carry momentum, energy, and information over long distances. In memory of the outstanding event, we briefly describe two Alfvén resonators, one of which is located high above the Earth, in the radiation belt, and the second, in the ionospheric layers. Both resonators have a discrete spectrum in the upper part of the range of ultralow frequency oscillations of natural origin (approximately from 0.2 Hz to 7 Hz). The close connection between the concept of Alfvén waves and the current problems of the electrodynamics of geophysical media is especially emphasized.

Viktoriia Lukianets: Ascending Opera Olympus

The purpose of the research is to highlight the creative achievements of Ukrainian opera singer Viktoriia Lukianets in collaboration with three prominent contemporary tenors: Luciano Pavarotti, Jose Carreras, and Placido Domingo (the latter both as a singer and conductor). Research methodology. In the course of searching and analyzing the relevant literature, historical, textual, and source research methods were used. The work continued with not only printed articles, but also with the singer’s personal archive (posters, programs, booklets, diaries, letters, autographs), and many interviews were conducted, the transcripts of which are stored in the author’s archive. All of this helped to reconstruct historical events (dates of premieres, number and type of rehearsals, time of auditions, etc.) Scientific novelty. The article is the first to describe the collaboration between the Ukrainian opera singer Viktoriia Lukianets and three of the most prominent tenors of our time in detail. The context is also thoroughly described and studied: the theatres where the singers performed, their stage colleagues, conductors, historical parallels, and perspectives. Conclusions. The historical reconstruction of outstanding events in the opera world makes it possible to realize the significance of the Ukrainian vocal school ( Viktoriia Lukianets’ teachers Ivan Palyvoda and Yelyzaveta Chavdar) in the world context, as well as the outstanding role of the Ukrainian singer who was able to conquer the best opera stages and perform with the most prominent singers of our time.

Blazar Variability with the Vera C. Rubin Legacy Survey of Space and Time

Abstract With their emission mainly coming from a relativistic jet pointing toward us, blazars are fundamental sources for studying extragalactic jets and their central engines, consisting of supermassive black holes fed by accretion disks. They are also candidate sources of high-energy neutrinos and cosmic rays. Because of the jet orientation, the nonthermal blazar emission is Doppler beamed; its variability is unpredictable, and it occurs on timescales from less than 1 hr to years. Comprehension of the diverse mechanisms producing the flux and spectral changes requires well-sampled multiband light curves over long time periods. In particular, outbursts are the best test bench for shedding light on the underlying physics, especially when studied in a multiwavelength context. The Vera C. Rubin Legacy Survey of Space and Time (Rubin-LSST) will monitor the southern sky for 10 yr in six photometric bands, offering a formidable tool for studying blazar variability features in a statistical way. The alert system will allow us to trigger follow-up observations of outstanding events, especially at high (keV-to-GeV) and very high (TeV) energies. We here examine the simulated Rubin-LSST survey strategies with the aim of understanding which cadences are more suitable for blazar variability science. Our metrics include light curve and color sampling. We also investigate the problem of saturation, which will affect the brightest and many flaring sources, and will have a detrimental impact on follow-up observations.

The Passage of Years: Not a Matter of Covert Retrieval of Autobiographical Memories.

In current research, variations in retrospective passage of time judgments for long intervals are commonly attributed to differences regarding the number of experiences in these intervals or the accessibility of the respective memories. This seems to imply the assumption of a covert retrieval, where authors presume that memories from the respective interval influence the experience of time without these memories being explicitly activated when judging. However, no studies have systematically investigated the relation between the experience of time and the respective experiences and memories. To this end, we analyzed data from three studies in which participants judged the passage of the last 5 years either before being asked to select outstanding life events from a list (Studies 1a and b; N = 293 and 263) or before recalling as many meaningful personal memories as were spontaneously accessible (Study 2; N = 262). Despite applying a statistically powerful trial-by-trial mixed-effects modeling approach, neither in the separate datasets nor in the combined dataset, passage of time judgments were predicted by the number of reported events or memories. This suggests that people's spontaneous judgments of the passage of multiannual intervals are not necessarily affected by a covert retrieval of memories from the respective period.

Adenovirus Structure: What Is New?

Adenoviruses are large (~950 Å) and complex non-enveloped, dsDNA icosahedral viruses. They have a pseudo-T = 25 triangulation number with at least 12 different proteins composing the virion. These include the major and minor capsid proteins, core proteins, maturation protease, terminal protein, and packaging machinery. Although adenoviruses have been studied for more than 60 years, deciphering their architecture has presented a challenge for structural biology techniques. An outstanding event was the first near-atomic resolution structure of human adenovirus type 5 (HAdV-C5), solved by cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) in 2010. Discovery of new adenovirus types, together with methodological advances in structural biology techniques, in particular cryo-EM, has lately produced a considerable amount of new, high-resolution data on the organization of adenoviruses belonging to different species. In spite of these advances, the organization of the non-icosahedral core is still a great unknown. Nevertheless, alternative techniques such as atomic force microscopy (AFM) are providing interesting glimpses on the role of the core proteins in genome condensation and virion stability. Here we summarize the current knowledge on adenovirus structure, with an emphasis on high-resolution structures obtained since 2010.
