Parenting styles and externalizing problem behaviors of preschoolers: mediation through self-control abilities and emotional management skills by Zhang WenLi, Xu Tiemei, Li Shuangqi, Yu Qun, Zhu Jingbo, Sun Sijie

“…Here, teachers and parents of 799 preschoolers from China were surveyed.ResultsThe findings of this investigation are 3-fold: (1) a significant association exists between the parenting styles adopted by parents and externalizing problem behaviors observed among preschoolers; (2) self-control abilities and emotional management skills independently mediate the associations between parenting styles and children's externalizing problem behaviors, highlighting their roles as mediators; and (3) sequential mediation of self-control abilities and emotional management skills elucidates a pathway through which parenting styles impact preschoolers' externalizing problem behaviors.DiscussionThis study clarified the relationship between parenting styles, externalizing problem behaviors of preschoolers, self-control abilities, and emotional management skills to provide a theoretical basis for solving the externalizing problem behaviors of preschoolers.…”

Diasporas and Armed Conflicts: beyond Being “Third Party” by I. D. Loshkariov

“…The conventional point of view is that diasporas can only act as the “third party” of the conflict by either contributing to the deepening of the contradictions between the opposing parties or acting as an intermediary between them. In theoretical terms, the author relies on the concept of “new” or network wars (netwars) and tries to demonstrate that there are the prerequisites for more active involvement of diasporas in armed conflicts at the structural level of modern world political processes. …”

Reliable Quantized Fuzzy Controller Design for Nonlinear Singularly Perturbed Systems With Markovian Jumps and Dynamic Event Triggered Mechanism by Rabeh Abbassi, Mourad Kchaou, Hamdi Gassara, Houssem Jerbi

“…The proposed approach is based on the following key attributes: 1) An event-triggered mechanism that establishes a suitable condition for independent signal transmission from each sensor node to the controller; 2) A stochastic failure model that describes actuator failures; 3) A non-stationary Markov chain that reflects the asynchronous relationship between the system and controller modes; 4) A mode-dependent Lyapunov function is used to establish sufficient conditions to show that the resultant closed-loop system is stochastically mean-square stable with a <inline-formula> <tex-math notation="LaTeX">$\gamma $ </tex-math></inline-formula> level of <inline-formula> <tex-math notation="LaTeX">$ l_{2}-l_{\infty } $ </tex-math></inline-formula> performance index; 5) The theoretical findings are validated by a real numerical example of the Van Der Pol circuit, confirming the effectiveness of the proposed strategy.…”

HUMAN IMAGE IN CLASSICAL ISLAM AND SUFISM: PHILOSOPHICAL ANALYSIS by M. V. Nesprava

“…Achievement of this goal involves the application of methods such as philosophical analysis, comparative method, phenomenology, as well as the consistent solution of the following tasks: a) to analyze the main manifestations of anthropological ideas in Islam; b) to comprehend the specificity of Muslim ideas about a human in comparison with the corresponding Christian teaching; c) to consider disagreements between the interpretation of the essence and tasks of a human in the classical Islam and Sufism. Theoretical basis. The author proceedes from the unsatisfactory nature of the superficial interpretation of the human image in Islam, according to which a human is often expounded as a «slave of Allah», neglecting the multidimensionality of the metaphysical status of a human in Islam, as well as the polyparadigmality of the human image in various Islam directons. …”
