The development of economic systems in the today’s world in many cases is determined by the efficiency of processes, mechanisms for regulating their functioning. Regulation is an important component of the process of development of economic systems, activation of the functioning of their individual components in order to gradually move to a new, higher level of their own development. The State-based regulation of the economy is by its nature a complex and dynamic system. This system is already an integral constituent part of the functioning of the State authorities and local self-government bodies and is used by them to implement economic policy and regulate processes of economic management. Accordingly, the issues of studying the theoretical and applied provisions of such regulation are always relevant and constantly require further research. The article deepens the theoretical provisions regarding the essence of the category of «mechanism for the State-based regulation». This is carried out taking into account the results of the analysis of the essence of the categories of «mechanism for the State-based regulation» and «the State-based regulation of the economy». It is defined that the essence of such regulation should be considered as a process of influence of public authorities on economic processes or economic entities in order to ensure the stable development of individual industries, sectors of the national economy. As a result of the carried out content analysis of scientific approaches to the consideration of the definition of «mechanism for the State-based regulation of the economy», the substantive features of such a mechanism have been allocated. Its essence is proposed to be considered as a complex of interrelated components, which altogether allow to exert the influence of public authorities on economic processes and economic entities in order to ensure the stable development of individual industries, sectors of the national economy.

Imperial jade seals of China: transformations of content and form, artistic features

The great imperial seals, one of the most prominent jade articles in ancient China, were of great significence in those times. Two of its main components – a carved ornament on the top and a stamp, were not merely symbols of the feudal era, but also demonstrated the high level of technical proficiency of visual arts in ancient China. In the context of the history of the origin and development of jade seals, this article highlights the issues of evoluiton in content, form, and artistic features of the art of large imperial jade seals as it was developing during the long history of Chinese art. The article also highlights the relevance of formal and substantive features of jade seals in contemporary Chinese art, particularly in other types and genres of jade plastic arts. The form of imperial seals was developed during the early days of the Zhou dynasty. The nearly 3,000-year history of its development, spanning the Spring and Autumn period, the Warring States, Qin, Han, Sui and Tai, Song and Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties, has contributed to the abundance of jade seals, their variety and the richness of their forms. During the first feudal dynasty of China - Qin, when the first highly centralized political system was established, the large imperial seal became a symbol of the emperor's power, and had administrative and social significance. The imperial jade seal had retained its status in long history of China until the end of Qing dynasty. During this period, its form and content were gradually enriched, and a unique and successive culture of the great imperial seal had been created.

A meta-analysis of the efficacy of self-regulated learning interventions on academic achievement in online and blended environments in K-12 and higher education

ABSTRACT Numerous empirical studies, including meta-analyses, have confirmed the impact of self-regulated learning (SRL) on learners’ academic achievement in traditional or face-to-face learning environments. However, prior meta-analyses rarely examined the efficacy of SRL interventions on academic achievement in online or blended education across elementary education, secondary education, higher education, and adult education. Therefore, this meta-analysis addresses this research gap by focusing on the effect of SRL interventions on students’ academic test performance in online and blended learning environments in elementary, secondary, and higher education settings as well as informal settings. The present meta-analysis compares SRL phase, SRL scaffolds, and SRL strategies between treatment and control groups. We also investigated possible differential effectiveness due to substantive features of the included studies, such as different educational levels of learners (e.g. elementary, secondary, and higher education), academic subjects (STEM vs. non-STEM), and learning contexts (e.g. online learning, blended learning, web-based learning, mobile learning). Consistent with previously published meta-analyses, the present meta-analysis confirmed a positive and moderate effect of SRL intervention (ES = 0.69) on learners’ academic achievement in online and blended environments for learners in elementary, secondary, and higher education as well as informal adult education settings.

Artificial Intelligence in Established of Industry 4.0

The purpose of scientific research is to present the features of digitization of business processes using artificial intelligence at enterprises as a foundation on which the gradual formation of Industry 4.0 is built and the search for reserves of socio-economic growth in the conditions of the development of digital ecosystem and digital entrepreneurship. Presentation of a number of positive and negative consequences of the influence of artificial intelligence on the operation of digital infrastructure, as well as to indicate possible approaches in the practical application of artificial intelligence based on the substantive characteristics of its construction. The results and forecasts of four waves of modern development of artificial intelligence are presented, including: increasing the profits of Internet companies, monetization of creative Internet applications; reducing the number of cases of non-repayment of loans, establishing objective diagnoses, court decisions, etc.; protection of phones and digital wallets; payment by face scan. It was determined that the expected high-quality product of the fourth wave of modern development of artificial intelligence will be computer intelligence that understands and changes the world, a direct economic benefit first of highly structured environments, and then of other spheres of human activity. The peculiarities of the application of artificial intelligence in the course of the formation of digital enterprises of Industry 4.0 are revealed. The possibilities and advantages of the application of technical capabilities on which the development of artificial intelligence technology is based are analyzed. Approaches to the practical use of artificial intelligence are indicated, including: the synthesis of a human likeness with an independent thinking platform; predictive analytics; methods of control, planning and dispatching; storage, processing and presentation of knowledge. Having conducted a thorough analysis in parts of the acceleration of deep digitalization of business processes with the help of artificial intelligence, authors determined the impact of digitalization process and the operation of digital platforms on the transformational changes of enterprises. It has been found that digitalization lowers the barriers to market entry for small businesses, which have significantly expanded their niche and limited the monopoly of large companies, and the development of digital platforms determines the so-called network effects, when a large number of platform users creates conditions for the emergence of even more consumers. The directions for the development of artificial intelligence technologies are proposed, among which are named: creation of tools for users that allow to simplify the configuration of AI components of systems and to perform some actions without the involvement of developers. A step-by-step algorithm for setting up AI models is defined, namely: definition of the goal; tool selection; configuration and training of the model; hypothesis testing and model optimization; analysis of results.

The problem of subjectivity in psychological knowledge

Introduction. The article is devoted to the theoretical understanding of the problem of subjectivity in psychological knowledge, through the knowledge of the substantive characteristics of this concept and the establishment of their functional role. The problem of subjectivity has long been interested in both philosophers and psychologists of various schools. Dealing with the problems of pedagogical psychology, there is a stable relationship between the results of training and the development of the subjectivity of students.Materials and Methods. In the preparation and implementation of scientific research, a theoretical analysis of domestic and foreign literature, the study of scientific articles and publications on the topic was used; synthesis and systematization of the results of domestic and foreign studies; content analysis.Results. The article summarizes theoretical ideas about the phenomenon of subjectivity in domestic and foreign psychology, revealed its systemic content and functional characteristics, as well as the criteria for their selection. Theoretical generalizations allowed the author to formulate a definition of the definition of subjectivity in relation to the goals and objectives of the study.Discussion and Conclusions. As the category "subject" is differentiated, it is noticed that this concept is used to describe various areas - on the one hand, and the centralization of the concept – on the other hand. In the first case, such expressions as "subject of activity," "subject of communication," "subject of knowledge," etc. are known.In the second case, a certain globalization of the category occurs, which allows you to characterize multiple areas of human life, the phrase "subject of life" is used here. Subjective experience, as opposed to objective, provides for the use of the subject as a tool of cognition. Subjectivity arises at a certain stage of personality development as a new systemic quality of personality that can change the specifics of human behavior. Subjectivity performs an organizational function in theconstruction of its activities and life relations. The function of assigning human and cultural functions. The function of realizing the maturity of the "I-concept" of the personality, providing self-identification of the personality. The function of developing and implementing life strategies. Function of personality self-development. Function of motivational hardness of personality. Function of responsibility for their activities.

PROVIDING FUNCTIONING AGRICULTURAL MARKET OF UKRAINE UNDER MARTIAL LAW CONDITIONS

The article is devoted to the study of the functioning of the agricultural market of Ukraine under martial law conditions. The theoretical and substantive characteristics of the agricultural market have been determined. It was established that the agricultural market should be understood as a specific sphere of exchange, within which the interests of producers and consumers of agricultural products are coordinated, taking into account the capacity of the market, its infrastructural capacities and the possibilities of solvent demand of the population. The expediency of adapting the parameters of the functioning of the agrarian market to the conditions of martial law is substantiated. The main problems of its development in the conditions of martial law have been identified, namely: rising prices for raw materials for the production of agricultural products, a decrease in the purchasing power of the population, an increase in the risk of food producers, blocking of sea ports for carrying out export-import operations, the destruction of the logistics infrastructure of the agricultural industry, the danger of conducting agricultural production in the de-occupied and front-line territories of Ukraine. A set of measures aimed at improving the functioning of the agricultural market of Ukraine in the conditions of martial law is proposed, including the provision of state support to food producers, the diversification of export and import channels in the agricultural sector, the development and restoration of the logistics capacities of the agricultural sector, the creation of logistics centers in the western border territories of Ukraine, improving the purchasing power of the most socially vulnerable sections of the population through targeted assistance tools, demining agricultural lands in the de-occupied territories and their reintegration into the process of agricultural production, improving the physical availability of food products for the population in the front-line zone, developing a network of wholesale trade facilities and developing agrarian and industrial clusters, facilitating access to the agricultural market of small producers of agricultural products on the basis of cooperation and integration.

Radical substance-free phonology and feature learning

AbstractThis article argues that phonological features have no substantive properties, instead, segments are assigned features by learning strategies set to the task of devising a computational system for a phonology that is consistent with the requirements of UG. I address two problems for such a substance-free model. The first is the Card-Grammar problem, which has been suggested to argue for universal substantive features, on the premise that, otherwise, language data cannot be stored in a fashion necessary to correct learning errors. The Card Grammar problem disappears, in a suitably modular theory of mind with learned interfaces, where the mind still can retain information not parsed in a particular grammar. The second problem is the need for a demonstration, not just an assertion, that a reasonable theory of grammar and learning which has no access to phonetic substance can yield a coherent system of feature assignments. This is accomplished by modeling the learning of features necessary for the phonology of Kerewe.

Perception by Russian Social Media Users of Mass Protests During the Attempted Coup in Kazakhstan

The article presents the results of an applied political research on the representation of the 2022 Kazakh events in the Russian segment of social media. The context of the study stems from the significant intersection of the Russian and Kazakh segments of social media and the mutual influence of political processes. Under the political mobilization of the mass protests in Kazakhstan, which turned into an attempted coup, the activities of Russian counterelites intensified in various regions of Russia. Using a hybrid research strategy combined with cognitive mapping and social media analysis the authors managed to identify dynamic, structural and substantive characteristics of the information representation of the Kazakh events in the Russian segment of the Internet. The authors concluded that the scale of the Kazakh protests allowed to draw the short-term interest of the Russian audience, mainly from the regions bordering Kazakhstan. The use of economic triggers (rising prices, inefficient social policy, etc.) led to the involvement of the adult audience in the discussions around the Kazakh events, while a significant part of youth and young adults was excluded from information flows around the events. The study revealed that the Russian opposition attempted to use manipulative “contamination” technology in order to extrapolate the political and economic discontent in Kazakhstan to the situation in Russia. At the same time, the greatest resonance in the Russian segment of users was caused directly by the participation of the Collective Security Treaty Organization (CSTO) in the settlement, and not by the social and economic triggers that led to the events.
