On the «Religion» of Morality: Reflections on the Normative Nature of Divine Law in the Concept of John Austin

Philosophical and legal thought knows a number of theoretical concepts devoted to a grandiose and organic ethical and legal synthesis — the supreme unity of ethics and jurisprudence or reasoning about what is essential for law, supplemented by reasoning about what law should be. The joint task of these disciplines is to find and theoretically describe the best criteria available to the human mind for evaluating human actions. This principle of practical reasonableness, despite its incompleteness and relativity (for everything derived from man bears the signature of its own creator), would serve as a possible foundation stone for humanity in determining and understanding the highest criterion for evaluating proper behavior that only exists in the world. These are divine laws and prescriptions of their norms, this highest link in any normative hierarchy. It is the divine mind, and not the mind of mortal beings, that is the true source of any duties, from the appeal to the content of which it is possible, resorting to a suitable ethical interpretation, to «deduce» (not directly, but from the «image» that the specified content acquired through human mental activity) all other forms of obligation in one or another normative system. A striking example of such a «normative» concept turns out to be the teaching of J. Austin, devoted, if we put aside the positivist or «command» theory of the author, to the basic principles of the relationship between law (including morality) and the laws of God, ultimately to the sphere of human moral forces and freedom.

The system of international legal norms and principles – the basis of legal regulation of the activities of national law enforcement bodies

It is indicated that the introduction of advanced international and European norms regarding the functioning of law enforcement agencies into Ukrainian legislation is a key indicator that the country not only declares a sustainable course for the democratization of all aspects of public life, but also takes concrete measures for its implementation. Ukraine has made significant progress in this direction, but there are still a number of challenges, the legal analysis of which will contribute to the further approximation of the domestic system of law enforcement agencies to global and European standards. In this context, one of the priority areas of scientific research is the justification of the need to update and improve the ethical codes of conduct of law enforcement officers based on international standards. This task becomes particularly relevant in view of the need for constant improvement of professional ethics and standards of behavior in the law enforcement sphere. This approach will not only improve the efficiency of law enforcement agencies, but also strengthen public trust in them, which is crucial for building the rule of law and civil society. In addition, it will allow Ukraine to demonstrate its commitment to the principles of the rule of law and the protection of human rights in the international arena. The article examines the system of international legal norms and principles that form the basis of legal regulation of the activities of national law enforcement agencies. Two groups of international standards are distinguished. The first group includes international legal acts that declare human rights and freedoms, primarily those that may be violated by the unethical behavior of law enforcement officers as representatives of state bodies. The second group represents international legal standards of professional and ethical behavior of employees of a specific law enforcement agency, the norms of which directly indicate the proper behavior of law enforcement officers in a specific area of law enforcement activity (judicial, prosecutorial, police, investigative, etc.). The main emphasis is on the need to cover the rules of professional ethical behavior of employees of all law enforcement agencies without exception, including those legally endowed with special rights and competence.

Biobased hydrogel bioinks of pectin, nanocellulose and lysozyme nanofibrils for the bioprinting of A375 melanoma cell-laden 3D in vitro platforms

Melanoma is one of the most aggressive types of skin cancer, and the need for advanced platforms to study this disease and to develop new treatments is rising. 3D bioprinted tumor models are emerging as advanced tools to tackle these needs, with the design of adequate bioinks being a fundamental step to address this challenging process. Thus, this work explores the synergy between two biobased nanofibers, nanofibrillated cellulose (NFC) and lysozyme nanofibrils (LNFs), to create pectin nanocomposite hydrogel bioinks for the 3D bioprinting of A375 melanoma cell-laden living constructs. The incorporation of LNFs (5, 10 or 15 wt%) on a Pectin-NFC suspension originates inks with enhanced rheological properties (shear viscosity and yield point) and proper shear-thinning behavior. The crosslinked hydrogels mimic the stiffness of melanoma, being stable under physiological and cell-culture conditions, and non-cytotoxic towards A375 melanoma cells. P-NFC-LNFs (10 %) reveals good printability (Pr = 0.89) and printing accuracy (51 ± 2 %), and when loaded with A375 cells (3 × 106 cells mL−1) the bioink originates 3D-constructs with high cell viability (92 ± 1 %) after 14 days. The potential of the constructs as in vitro models is corroborated by a drug-screening test with doxorubicin, where cells within the model displayed high sensitivity to the drug.

Unlocking Dignity: Self-Worth and Life Satisfaction through the Lens of Female Persons Deprived of Liberty

The study aimed to explore the lived experiences of female PDLs in relation to self-worth and life satisfaction, as most incarcerated mothers find it challenging to adjust to their lives and find balance in maintaining their relationships. To fully understand self-worth and life satisfaction from their perspectives, their past experiences, present circumstances and plans were discussed. Seven (7) incarcerated mothers who gave birth from years 2020-2024, ranging from 20-35 years old, were interviewed. The theories utilized were Self-Worth Theory and Life Satisfaction as an aspect of Subjective Well-being. Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis was used, wherein the participants were interviewed via semi-structured interview guide questions. This study generated 11 superordinate themes which mainly centered on their education, career, status, children and family. From these findings, the author came up with supplemental programs, otherwise collectively called the MAC Program, that could help the incarcerated mothers, their children, their families and the jail authorities, both while the PDLs were in jail and after being re-integrated into their communities. It is a holistic program which includes activities for Psychological Wellbeing and Mental Health Services; Educational Assessment and Career Development; Family Support System; and Motherhood and Parenting Support Program. Investigating the self-worth and life satisfaction of the female PDLs can help assess how to better manage the PDLs as well as avoid re-incarceration. Equipping the female PDLs with the proper knowledge, skills, and behaviour can help them and their families live a better and renewed life once they get released from the jail facilities.

Attitudes and perceptions towards epilepsy in an onchocerciasis-endemic region of Tanzania: a mixed approach to determine the magnitude and driving factors

BackgroundEpilepsy remains a significant public health concern in Tanzania, with affected individuals enduring stigma, whether through actions or perceptions. Myths, misunderstandings, and misconceptions about epilepsy have persisted due to a multitude of factors. Here, we assessed attitudes and perceptions toward epilepsy in Mahenge.MethodsA cross-sectional study utilising a mixed-methods approach was undertaken in eight villages in the Ulanga district of Mahenge, integrating a semi-structured questionnaire and focus group discussions (FGDs). The questionnaire involved 778 community members, and 15 FGDs were conducted (seven groups with people with epilepsy and eight without). Descriptive statistics, chi-square, and logistic regression were used for quantitative analysis, while we used NVivo version 14 for thematic analysis of qualitative data.ResultsOf 778 participants, over half were women (425, 54.6%) with a median age of 41 years (IQR: 30–55) and most had completed primary education (79.9%). The majority of participants were aware of epilepsy (96.8%), yet they displayed low knowledge (51%), negative attitudes (45.5%), and perceptions (42.1%) towards the disorder. A low level of understanding was significantly associated with negative attitudes (Adjusted Odds Ratio [AOR] = 1.89, 95%CI: 1.41–2.53) and perceptions (AOR = 3.22, 95%CI: 2.05–5.04) towards epilepsy. In the qualitative analysis, often hereditary factors and infections were named as causes of epilepsy, along with misconceptions involving witchcraft and divine punishment. There was also a misconception about the contagiousness of epilepsy. Traditional healers were often the initial point of treatment. Epilepsy-related stigma was evident, with individuals with epilepsy facing derogatory labels, social isolation, and barriers to education. Lastly, there was a lack of understanding regarding a possible association between epilepsy and onchocerciasis.ConclusionsDespite high awareness of epilepsy, there is insufficient understanding, negative attitudes, and perceptions, including misconceptions and stigma about this neurologic condition. Community-based education programmes are essential for promoting proper healthcare-seeking behaviour and dispelling myths.

Historical outline of the development of the principle of good faith in civil procedure in Germany and France

The article analyzes the concept of good faith on the example of its development in civil proceedings in Germany and France. The author traces the relationship between the good faith of Roman civil procedure and the good faith of continental European countries, which was developed through the reception of Roman law. he author examines a number of sources of the so-called barbarian law in the context of good faith and its negative manifestation - bad faith in procedural communication and counteraction thereto. The author defines good faith as a condition for proper procedural behavior in the sources of law of the Holy Roman Empire of the Germanic nation and traces the history of the term Treu und Glauben. The author examines the concepts of correlation between the Roman term bona fides and the German term Treu und Glauben, which has become a general principle of various branches of law, including civil procedure law. The author examines the presence of the good faith principle in the modern German Code of Civil Procedure. The author also analyzes the concept of the formation of the principle of good faith in civil proceedings in France, for which purpose the medieval rules of customary law contained in such legal sources as the Coutumes Beauvais are studied. Special attention is paid to an important source of French procedural law of modern times - the Ordinance of Louis XIV of 1667 (Louis Code), which was the basis for the Civil Procedure Code of Napoleon of 1806 and whose provisions contained measures to counteract the abuse of procedural rights, and in some cases the term good faith as a measure of exemplary procedural communication. The author also reviews the provisions of the current French Code of Civil Procedure, which entered into force on January 1, 1976, where the principle of good faith is applied both as a counteraction to unfair procedural behavior and as a standard of procedural behavior which provides for the proper performance of duties and exercise of rights. The author determines that the principle of good faith is primarily found in substantive law, both in Germany and France, from where it is integrated into procedural law.

Predictors of Students’ Proper Waste Disposal Behavior in School Environment: a Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling Approach

It is evident from various reports and statistics that there is a significant gap between the desired environmental state and the current situation, primarily due to improper waste disposal. This study used a predictive-correlational design and structural equation modeling to examine the predictors of proper waste disposal behavior. The research instrument was validated and used to survey 293 high school students across three public schools in Nueva Ecija, Philippines. Using WarpPLS 8.0, the results revealed that (1) accessibility of trash bins, perceived consequences, environmental concern, and perceived behavioral control predict proper waste disposal behavior, and (2) environmental concern and perceived behavioral control sequentially mediate the effect of perceived behavioral control on proper disposal behavior. This study proposes a structural model with meaningful predictive accuracy that can help educational institutions design effective waste management programs empowering education to promote eco-friendly behavior. Future studies may be conducted to test the revised model presented in this study.

Redefining Coaching in a Pandemic: A Qualitative Exploration of Physical Educators' Responses to Sports During COVID-19

A sports coach is a total package individual who is competent and well-equipped for the role we are demonstrating. Coaches with the best level of training and the most years of experience in the sport have invested more in their education and are better at adjusting the content of the training to the developmental stages of children and adolescents. The main purpose of the study is to explore the experiences of PE teachers is sports coaching in times of COVID-19 Pandemic. On the professional aspect, the informants were able to bring their MAPEH teaching skills into practice in their own municipalities and provinces. As a result of the researcher's inability to travel, online communication and interviews were used as data collection methods to elicit the informants' experiences. This part includes the presentation, analysis, and interpretation of data gathered from the six informants from Guimaras, Aklan, Iloilo City, Ajuy, Potatan, and Pavia. It includes (1) Adversities of COVID-19 Pandemic with sub-themes of learning and training modalities and versatility of sports coaching strategies and styles (2) The Resiliency in Virtual Hubs with sub themes of life cycle on social media and (3) Discernments in the Midst of Global Dilemma with subthemes of internal enthusiasm and mind setting. Encouraging athletes to reset their mindsets to see quarantine as a learning opportunity, organizing suitable guidance, educating and motivating athletes to use proper preventive behavior, and establishing acceptable living isolation conditions. Some types of circuit-based body mass resistance training may aid aerobic adaptation. The athlete's needs should be taken into account when organizing sports skills training. The acronym AGAMER was a practical and feasible intervention that can be used by any PE teacher and coach in their respective field of expertise.

Sexual initiation age and related risk-taking behaviours among adolescents in urban secondary schools in Nairobi County

Risky sexual behaviour such as early sexual initiation, inconsistent condom use and sexual intercourse with multiple partners are relatively prevalent among youths in sub-Saharan Africa. Sexual intercourse is an important event in one’s life trajectory and the contributory factors are: proximate and distal environments. The proximate environment includes micro systemic influences such as one's attitudes and beliefs, and extends to one's family. The distal environment includes one's community and culture. However, there are core forces which influence personal choices and behaviours like the self, family and community, and networks and cultural influences. While there are a variety of factors that contribute to early sexual initiation, proper parenting behaviour has been identified as a key strategy for reducing adolescents’ risky sexual behaviours. Even though early sexual initiation process is subject to a number of barriers, there is still less focus on parenting behaviour and its relationship with early sexual initiation among adolescents. Therefore, this study applied social survey to assess sexual initiation age and its related risk-taking behaviors among the adolescents in urban secondary schools in Nairobi County. The study found the common period in which adolescents initiate sex and even befriend strangers as age (15-16years). The findings have shown that children are capable of initiating drug use at any given period. This suggests the need for parent to undertake close monitoring of their children at all ages to curb drug abuse and encourage health talk with them on the effects of drug use.

The Glutamine-Glutamate Cycle Contributes to Behavioral Feminization in Female Rats

Plain Language SummaryThe expression of female sexual behaviors in rodents relies on neuronal signaling within the ventromedial nucleus of the hypothalamus (VMH). Neurons located in the ventral lateral part of the VMH (vlVMH) release glutamate and use it as a mediator to transmit neuronal signals. These neurons are surrounded by astrocytes and may engage in metabolic interactions with them during the perinatal period. Astrocytes produce glutamine (Gln), which are transported into neurons as a precursor for producing glutamate. The vlVMH neurons that release glutamate depend on astrocytic Gln more heavily in female than in male pups. Perinatal disruption of Gln supply to neurons sex-differentially alters glutamate-mediated neuronal signaling and results in morphological changes in vlVMH neurons that resemble those of the opposite sex in adult animals. The present study reveals that perinatal blockade at various points of this metabolic pathway consistently decreased the expression of sex behavior of female rats, while it may only moderately reduce or left unaffected the sex behavior of male rats. Additionally, perinatal inhibition of Gln supply to neurons led to compensatory increases in a neuronal enzyme responsible for glutamate production in the hypothalamus of adult female rats. The results of the study demonstrate that an intact Gln-glutamate metabolic cycle between astrocytes and neurons during the perinatal period is necessary for the development of neuronal networks for proper sex behavior expression in female rats. The findings also suggest that behavioral defeminization could occur in the absence of high levels of E2 exposure in the brain of perinatal female rats.

Molecular pathology and computational profiling of Janus kinase 2 (JAK2) mutation in acute lymphoblastic leukemia: insights from a Pakistani cohort.

JAK2 mutation plays a clinically significant role in the pathogenesis of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) by enhancing its oncogenicity. The study aimed to characterize the molecular pathology and computational profile of the JAK2 mutation in an ALL cohort of Pakistani origin. Ninety-three patients were enrolled in the current study. The disease diagnosis was confirmed via flow cytometry and karyotyping of bone marrow aspirate/blood. For the identification of causative gene variations and assessment of their potential impact, the JAK2 gene underwent direct sequencing and predictive computational and in silico structural analysis, respectively. JAK2 mutations were detected in 10 (11%) patients. All mutations were missense with 1 being frameshift. Most mutations showed a similar pattern to the wild type but p.N673H+p.V674L+p.C675W (AAD699), p.V674F (AAD704), and p.V674L (AAD705) exhibited statistically significant stability loss. The triple mutation displayed reduced stability both globally and locally. The pattern of gene defects in JAK2 in the studied cohort showed a disruption in proper folding behavior, evident from increased gyration values, resulting in the hypothesis that these mutations may cause structural alterations in the JAK2 protein that lead to disease progression.

Examining the psychosocial drivers of handwashing behaviour among school children

ABSTRACT Aim Handwashing with soap remains the single most cost-effective strategy for reducing the spread of infectious diseases. From our scoping search, no study was identified which examined the predictors of children’s handwashing behaviour within the context of the Health Belief Model (HBM) and Theory of Planned Behaviour (TPB) combined. This paper contributes to bridging this gap in literature. We sought to examine variables emanating from the HBM and TPB which could potentially predict handwashing behaviour; determine whether behavioural intention will potentially predict behaviour; and identify school children’s motivation for proper handwashing behaviour. Subject and Methods Data were collected from 717 school children recruited from four basic schools. A structured questionnaire was used for data collection. Data were analysed using multi-variable linear regression models. Results Participants’ knowledge of hand hygiene failed to predict behavioural intention and handwashing behaviour. As regards participants’ perception of severity, there was an association with behavioural intention in a crude model, but this was not so in an adjusted model. Also, perception of severity was not associated with handwashing behaviour. Attitude to handwashing (β = 0.120, 95% CI [0.00, 0.24] p = 0.046), possession of handwashing skills (β = 0.037, 95% CI [0.01, 0.07] p = 0.008), and subjective norms (β = 0.263, 95% CI [0.20, 0.33] p < 0.001) were among the psychosocial variables that showed potential for predicting both behavioural intention and behaviour. The TPB’s intention-behaviour relationship was corroborated by our results. Among others, motivation for adherence to proper handwashing behaviour included the desire to make hands smell better. Conclusion Interventions targeting the handwashing behaviour of school children should consider strategies that move beyond mere knowledge improvement, but rather target attitude and skill enhancement strategies implemented in partnership with ‘significant others’ such as teachers, and adult peers.

The impact of different PV system grid integration approaches on voltage profile, grid losses and behaviour of PV system owners

Distribution grids in individual countries inside the European Union have different properties, while the grid operators use different approaches to integrate photovoltaic (PV) systems into the grid, which influences the voltage profile, grid losses and grid’s hosting capability. This work deals with a 0.4 kV distribution gird characteristic for the Slovenian countryside. The grid users are relatively sparsely distributed in the space. The distances between them are relatively long, while the load distribution among individual phases is unbalanced. Three different approaches to the integration of PV into the grid are discussed. The one used before 2012 with the concentrated larger PV units placed close to the transformer busbars, the one introduced with a net-metering scheme where larger PV units are randomly distributed in the grid, and the one where smaller PV units are evenly distributed throughout the grid. The case study discusses the impacts of the three approaches on the proper voltage profile provision, network losses and behaviour of the PV system owners.

Безопасность как основа гражданской солидарности в условиях чрезвычайной ситуации

On the events of the emergency experienced by the author example, the civic solidarity is revealed are essence, formulated as a part of the concept of citizenship and as an opportunity for an individual to express himself in society through association. On positive and negative examples of citizens solidarity are shown that have arisen due to security threats, the problems of possible or proper citizens behavior to ensure the balance of interests of society and the state are shown. The author's characteristic of civil solidarity concept is proposed, the proper institutionalization of which in the theory of constitutional law will contribute to the achievement of mutual trust between society and citizens.

Effect of the lattice structures on mechanical characterisation of additively manufactured Ti-6Al-4V for biomedical application

ABSTRACT In the last decades, most investigations in titanium bone implantology have applied lattice structures instead of dense materials to reduce weight and obtain the mechanical properties similar to human bones. However, there is still a need for more research on the optimal design of lattice titanium implants with proper mechanical behaviour and heat treatment investigations, which directly affects the mechanical, microstructural, and morphological characteristics. The present study aims to examine the effect of densities and unit cell sizes for Selective Laser Melting (SLM)-printed lattice structures created by MSLattice. TPMS lattice structures including Diamond, Gyroid, and Primitive generated by MSLattice software were subsequently printed using Ti-6Al-4 V ELI. Tensile testing of DTi (dense) produced an ultimate tensile strength of 1241.58 ± 23.92 MPa and a Yield strength of 1151 ± 8.6 MPa, while its compression test resulted in an ultimate value of 1424.8 ± 20.13 MPa. The increase in density from 20% to 30% has resulted in a doubling of some mechanical properties. The lattice structure of the Gyroid at 30% density presented a UCS value of 143.96 ± 0.89 MPa as the highest, while that of the Diamond at 20% density presented the lowest with 46.89 ± 0.43 MPa. The values for energy absorption and plateau stress follow in a precise sequence.

Definition of a beam-like reduced order model element by means of a mixed dimensional coupling

The use of Reduced Dimensional Models (RDM) discretized like beams, plates and shell elements drastically decreases the computational cost of solving a full 3D elastic problem with a Finite Element Method (FEM). However, its kinematic assumptions are only applicable to bodies with regular sections or continuous layouts. For the correct analysis of irregular regions, it is necessary to rely on bi-dimensional or solid models that fully reproduce the geometry of the body and its behavior but have a much higher computational cost. The Mixing Dimensional Coupling (MDC) technique allows linking models discretized with elements of different topologies, allowing the possibility of considering the most cost-effective model in each region. This coupling takes place at the interface that delimits both models and relies on the equilibrium of work and reactions on its two faces. In this paper, the formulation is presented for coupling beams with laminar sections and 2D Plane-Stress (PS) models demonstrating its proper behavior. Finally, this coupling is used for defining a new beam element, the Beam-Like Reduced Order Model (BLROM), which is obtained from a Plane-Stress model of their longitudinal section.

Pratiloma Paranoia: Class Hierarchy, Conservatism, and Ethics in Classical Hindu Law

The Hindu law tradition grounds its social ethics on an ideological hierarchy of class or caste known as varṇa. The positive inculcation of this hierarchy is bolstered by a fear of social inversion, known as pratiloma, in every area of law and society. Through an examination of the concept of pratiloma, this article contends first that the central Hindu law principle of dharma, religious and legal duty, depends upon knowing and abiding by one’s place in society. From this Hindu articulation of social rank as the foundation of ethics, the article then draws a comparison between classical Anglo-American conservatism and Hindu law to suggest that conservative traditions in general base moral action on social station and the fear of breaking social rank. Ethics in Hindu law, therefore, are derived from an acceptance of social station within the varṇa hierarchy and the constant cultivation of local expectations of proper behavior according to social position.

Experimental modelling of a novel concrete-based 15-MW spar wind turbine

Physical model testing is a crucial step in the validation process of floating offshore wind concepts that can be used to contribute to the worldwide decarbonization objectives. It is also important to understand the coupled performance of all the sub-systems that conform to a floating wind concept: wind turbines, mooring systems or floating platform hydrodynamic responses. Few experimental tests had been conducted, and no real-time hybrid modelling had been performed in these tests. In this paper, an open-source experimental dataset is presented, and the dynamics of a concrete spar-based floating concept withstanding the IEA 15-MW Reference Wind Turbine are investigated. An experiment on a 1:55 scale concrete-based spar (WindCrete) at IHCantabria's ocean basin was developed by means of the hardware-in-the-loop technique under the COREWIND EU-H2020 project. The available data consist of the hydrodynamic characterizations and seakeeping tests with a total of 57 available datasets. The proper behaviour of the WindCrete platform and the designed mooring system is confirmed by the maximum motion values and accelerations below the established acceptance criteria defined. Moreover, this test program identifies the importance of the wind loads over the dynamic performance of the concept.

The Correct Breastfeeding Education on the Knowledge and Behavior of Postpartum Mothers in the NNICU Room

Background: In new mothers there is often a failure of administration early in life. The first day of birth becomes a very vulnerable day because breast milk usually has not come out or only slightly confuses the mother and gives drinks other than breast milk. Purpose of the study was to Analysis of the influence of education on the right way of breastfeeding on the knowledge and behavior of breastfeeding postpartum mothers in the NNICU room of RSUD dr. Soedono, East Java Province. Methods: Research design: Pretest-Posttest Experiment Design. Independent variable: proper breastfeeding education: Dependent variable in: knowledge and behavior of postpartum mothers on proper breastfeeding. How to collect data: questionnaires for knowledge of how to breastfeed and observation sheets to measure appropriate breastfeeding behavior. Population: all postpartum mothers whose babies are being treated in the NNICU room in August – October 2023 is 165 people. Sample: a portion of a population of 28 people. Random random sampling technique. Statistical test using Chi Square test technique. Results: The results of the study before education were carried out almost all (82.1%) postpartum mothers had good knowledge and most (67.9%) had proper breastfeeding behavior. After education: all (100%) postpartum mothers have good knowledge and proper breastfeeding behavior. The results of the Chi Square test analysis with α= 0.05 ρ knowledge=0.018 and ρ attitude=0.007 there is an influence of breastfeeding education on knowledge and appropriate breastfeeding behavior in postpartum mothers Conclusion: Breastfeeding education to postpartum mothers using a leaflet containing interesting pictures, carried out at any time before breastfeeding mothers and always practiced directly with the assistance of officers makes it easier for mothers to remember. Direct practice accompanied by officers makes mothers quickly able to breastfeed appropriately.

A Closer Look at the Statistical Behavior of a Chaotic System with Message Inclusion for Cryptographic Applications

One technique, especially in chaos-based cryptographic applications, is to include the message in the evolution of the dynamical system. This paper aims to find out if and to what extent the statistical behavior of the chaotic system is affected by the message inclusion in its dynamic evolution. The study is illustrated by the dynamical system described by the logistic map in cryptographic applications based on images. The evaluation of the statistical behavior was performed on an original scheme proposed. The Monte Carlo analysis of the applied Kolmogorov–Smirnov statistical test revealed that the dynamical system in the processing scheme with message inclusion does not modify its proper statistical behavior (revealed by definition relation). This was possible due to the proposed scheme designed. Namely, this scheme contains a decision switch which, supported by an appropriate choice of the magnitude of the scaling factor, ensures that the values of the dynamical system are maintained in the definition domain. The proposed framework for analyzing the statistical properties and for preserving the dynamical system behavior is one main contribution of this research. The message inclusion scheme also provides an enhancement with cryptographic mixing functions applied internally; the statistical behavior of the dynamical system is also analyzed in this case. Thus, the paper contributes to the theoretical complex characterization of the dynamical system considering also the message inclusion case.
