Social Behaviours

In New World primates, mixed-species troops have been reported. Here, we analysed the performance of affiliative and agonistic behaviours of Callithrix jacchus and Callithrix penicillata living in mixed groups. For this purpose, we recorded the interaction of the individuals from two groups located in Bauru city, in the state of São Paulo (Brazil). Our data show that in both groups, affiliative behaviours appeared more frequently than agonistic ones. We concluded that there is cohesion inside the mixed-species troops observed. We suggest that a deeper knowledge about the social behaviour of mixed-species troop species certainly may be useful in projects linked with the management of the impact caused by them.

Holistic Description

The article reveals the technology of assessing the professional suitability of officials to perform their functions on the basis of the method of modeling and comparing assessments with the necessary parameters for the position, ie with the model. The term "model" is used as a holistic description of the coordination of the requirements of the social system (SS) with the possibilities of their implementation. The model in this case is a professional standard, which is developed for each position. The professional standard is the agreed standard by which employees should work. This method - the method of evaluation using a professional standard, is the result of the implementation of the principle of consistency in the construction of the model. According to the authors, the method is not only novelty approach, but also versatility. It is possible to estimate by means of a professional standard not only the expert, but also group, potential of collective, it is possible to make comparisons, to define weaknesses and strongnesses of the organizations. The technique developed by authors is offered that allows to carry out various necessary variations with the estimated signs, including visual display of results in various forms.Job modeling refers to ideal or imaginary modeling (as opposed to material, substantive, when modeling physical and mathematical objects) and is based largely on the idealization of the object. In our opinion, at no stage can the model be embodied in an absolutely accurate copy due to the unforeseen influence of many external factors.Modeling of evaluation characteristics in personnel activity is a necessary element in the real assessment of the state of affairs in the State Border Guard Service of Ukraine. That is why their importance is growing in the context of its reform, taking into account the impact on it of both negative and positive factors.

A significant place in the social and economic development of each country belongs to the problems of the budget, because the budget belongs to the sphere of public life that directly affects the interests of all members of society. The budget of any country reflects the important economic, social and political problems of the state and each person in particular. At the same time, the successful solution of budget problems is possible only if a proper understanding of its essence, role and place in the system of economic relations. For any country, the state budget is the main link in the financial system. As part of this system, it combines the main financial categories: income and expenditure of the country, the tax system, public credit, public debt in their closest coexistence. The budget as a financial plan of public expenditures and sources of their coverage plays an important role in the activities of the state. It determines its capabilities and development priorities, its role and forms of implementation of the functions assigned to it. It is an effective regulator of that economy reflects the amount of financial resources required by the state, determines specific areas of use of funds, directs the financial activities of the state. The article analyzes and defines the essence of revenues and expenditures of the state budget. The state and dynamics of state budget revenues and budget expenditures are studied. A comparison of state budget revenues and expenditures was made and it was investigated that expenditures significantly exceed revenues, and therefore the state budget is in deficit. The factors of formation of revenues and expenditures of the state budget at the present stage are determined. The dynamics of GDP growth rates and state revenues are analyzed budget, as well as the impact of GDP on the state budget. The peculiarities of the influence of the foreign trade factor on the revenues and expenditures of the state budget are determined. The influence and shares of exports and imports in the state budget revenues are studied. The current problems of imbalance of the state budget and the causes of the state budget deficit are identified. Ways to balance revenues and expenditures at the present stage are proposed. The dynamics of indicators of export and import of Ukraine is analyzed. The problems of Ukraine 's foreign trade at the present stage are investigated and perspective directions of improvement of the existing state of the export – import policy of the state are determined.

Nematodes respond to a multitude of environmental cues. For example, the social behaviours clumping and bordering were described as a mechanism of hyperoxia avoidance in Caenorhabditis elegans and Pristionchus pacificus. A recent study in P. pacificus revealed a novel regulatory pathway that inhibits social behaviour in a response to an as yet unknown environmental cue. This environmental signal is recognised by ciliated neurons, as mutants defective in intraflagellar transport (IFT) proteins display social behaviours. The IFT machinery represents a large protein complex and many mutants in genes encoding IFT proteins are available in C. elegans. However, social phenotypes in C. elegans IFT mutants have never been reported. Here, we examined 15 previously isolated C. elegans IFT mutants and found that most of them showed strong social behaviour. These findings indicate conservation in the inhibitory mechanism of social behaviour between P. pacificus and C. elegans.

ABSTRACTThis paper aims to identify the Communication course curricular trajectory in Brazil, in order to reflect on possible impacts on teaching and learning processes within the local educational contexts of undergraduate Social Communication courses. The discourses present in curricular public policies towards this area of knowledge have been shaped by neoliberal logic, which features a context governed by the laws of the market and the democratic Social Welfare State mischaracterization, that is, the State reduction and “market and quasi-market” appreciation. The current recommendations of the Brazilian national curricular frameworks for Social Communication exemplify the management of private interests, of large enterprises in the Multinational Educational and Telecommunications area, through the expansion of outsourced educational services and products. The disentanglement of qualifications weakens the area and isolates the knowledge in related areas, massing a speech in favor of the market. Thus, the Brazilian higher education has been suffering the impact of denationalization of the state, which is causing profound changes in how curriculum public policies are being implemented.RESUMOEste trabalho tem como objetivo identificar a trajetória curricular dos cursos de Comunicação no Brasil, visando refletir sobre possíveis impactos nos processos de ensino e de aprendizagem no âmbito dos contextos educacionais locais dos cursos de graduação de Comunicação social. Os discursos presentes nas políticas públicas curriculares dirigidas a esse campo do conhecimento vêm sendo modelados pela lógica neoliberal, a qual caracteriza um contexto governado pelas leis de mercado e pela descaracterização do Estado de Bem-estar Social democrático, ou seja, a redução do Estado e a valorização do “mercado e quase-mercado”. As atuais recomendações dos referenciais curriculares nacionais brasileiros para a Comunicação Social exemplificam a gerência de interesses privados, de grandes empresas do ramo Educacional Multinacional e de Telecomunicações, pela expansão dos serviços e dos produtos educacionais terceirizados. A desarticulação das habilitações enfraquece a área e isola o conhecimento em áreas afins, massificando um discurso que vem para favorecer o mercado. Assim sendo, a educação superior brasileira vem sofrendo o impacto da desnacionalização do Estado, o que está provocando profundas mudanças em como as políticas públicas de currículo vêm sendo implementadas.

The study of some indicators of the components of socio-economic development of the region on the example of Vinnytsia region, namely production, financial, demographic, scientific and technical, social, environmental. It is stated that the provision of socio-economic development of the territorial community is realized through the financial content of the social sphere at the expense of own municipal funds and subsidies from the state budget. The assessment of expenditures proves that the social protection of the Vinnytsia region ensures compliance with the constitutional guarantees of citizens. The studied indicators of the Vinnytsia region prove that the socio-economic development of the community is aimed at ensuring the statutory guarantees of social protection of citizens, as well as streamlining the existing system of municipal assistance, benefits and compensation. One of the most successful system technologies that allows you to assess the impact of external and internal factors is a SWOT-analysis. The results of the SWOT analysis make it possible to assess the ability to withstand threats, as well as to overcome internal shortcomings. Thus, the internal factors of socio-economic development of the Vinnytsia region are dominated by strengths. With regard to agriculture and industry, the situation in the region is currently exacerbated by a shortage of skilled labor, namely, specialists in engineering and manufacturing. External labor migration increases the risk of further development of the labor industry. Declared indicators of socio-economic development of the territorial community are considered in terms of a set of different social and economic goals, rational and reasonable use of municipal and state financial resources. The given separate indicators characterizing social and economic development of territorial community allow to define acceptability of conditions for life and development of the person, social and economic stability of community. Changes in social and economic indicators under the influence of internal factors are the basis for the formation of qualitative socio-economic development of the region and the state as a whole.

The Impact

Oestrogens have a major impact on reproductive function in both males and females. Two oestrogen receptor genes known as ERalpha (ESR1NR3A1) and ERbeta (ESR2NR3A2) have been cloned. Splice variant isoforms of the ERbeta gene have been identified in human, bovine and rodents and it has been suggested that the existence of these forms can influence oestrogen responsiveness. In the human, splicing of an alternative eighth exon results in the formation of a C-terminal variant called hERbetacx, or hERbeta2, but this isoform has not been identified in other species. The aim of the present study was to clone ERbeta cDNAs from primates so as to determine how closely they resembled the ERbeta isoforms found in the human. The two species studied were the stump-tailed macaque (Macaca arctoides), an Old World primate, and the common marmoset (Callithrix jacchus jacchus), a New World primate. Full length ERbeta (wild type, ERbeta1) cDNAs were cloned from macaque and marmoset; they encoded proteins of similar size to those found in human (59 and 54 kDa, long and short forms respectively) and shared significant sequence homology (97.5% in macaque and 93.8% in marmoset) with the human peptide sequence. Full length cDNAs homologous to the hERbeta2 variant were identified in both primates. Marmoset ERbeta2 was slightly shorter than that of human ERbeta2 (54 kDa compared with 55 kDa) and did not contain the peptide sequence used to raise an anti-hERbeta2 antibody. All the macaque ERbeta2 cDNAs contained 56 bp of intronic sequence which included an in-frame stop codon resulting in translation of a truncated protein ( approximately 35 kDa). In all three species, truncated, alternatively spliced mRNAs lacking exon 5 were isolated on multiple occasions from all tissue extracts. In transient transfection assays, ERbeta2-containing constructs were unable to induce transcription of an oestrogen response element (ERE) reporter plasmid in the presence of oestradiol. ERbeta1 from human, macaque and marmoset exhibited minor differences in their ability to induce transcription of the ERE reporter when incubated with different ligands (oestradiol, PPT, DPN, 5-alpha-androstane-3-beta, 17beta-diol (3betaAdiol), genistein) and this may be due to amino acid substitutions within their ligand binding domains. In conclusion, we have identified and cloned wild type ERbeta (ERbeta1) from macaque and marmoset and demonstrated that splice variant mRNAs homologous to hERbeta2 are formed in both species. The marmoset monkey, therefore, provides a suitable animal model in which to investigate the impact of ERbeta variant expression on tissue responsiveness to oestrogens.
