The scientific problem of economics “Managing the quality of human life” is formulated on the basis of artificial intelligence, algebra of logic and logical-probabilistic calculus. Managing the quality of human life is represented by managing the processes of his treatment, training and decision making. Events in these processes and the corresponding logical variables relate to the behavior of a person, other persons and infrastructure. The processes of the quality of human life are modeled, analyzed and managed with the participation of the person himself. Scenarios and structural, logical and probabilistic models of managing the quality of human life are given. Special software for quality management is described. The relationship of human quality of life and the digital economy is examined. We consider the role of public opinion in the management of the “bottom” based on the synthesis of many studies on the management of the economics and the state. The bottom management is also feedback from the top management.

The article examines the depiction of gratitude and related events in Latvian folklore through comparative evaluation. Gratitude is considered in a psychological context, comparing the attitude expressed in folklore with the findings of modern scientific research. Gratitude is a concept that is usually associated with a relationship or a benefit, it is most often aimed outwards, dedicated to someone else, but at the same time, it creates a pleasant feeling within the person. In modern psychology, gratitude is receiving more and more attention from researchers because its manifestations stimulate the formation of positive emotions and contribute to the improvement of the person’s overall well-being. Research and clinical studies in psychotherapy confirm that gratitude plays an important role in improving mental health and reducing depressive, destructive feelings. In turn, neuroscience research shows the potential of a grateful and positive attitude in strengthening psycho-emotional health and well-being in general. In Latvian folklore, gratitude is depicted as an important part of ritual events, which helps to ensure a positive, balanced connection with the forces of nature, gods, and society. In folklore, the importance of gratitude is emphasised more when building family relationships or accepting various situations and occurrences in life. In both psychological research and the practice of systemic therapy, as well as in folklore, gratitude appears as one of the most important values of interpersonal connection, which promotes the formation of harmonious relationships. Similar to the opinions of psychology, the folk world views emphasise the motivational role of gratitude in improving the quality of human life and health in general.

Scientific-technological development, along with initiating integrative forces that offer improvement of the quality of human life, concurrently created prerequisites for individuals to exploit certain innovations for performing criminal activities. Modern criminals wander through electronic networks, and assisted by high technology, perform a variety of criminal acts and ?launder? large sums of money. Computer forensics is a technological, systemic control of the computer system and its content for the purpose of gathering evidence of a criminal act or other abuse that it has been used for. Digital forensics requires particular expertise that goes beyond traditional data collection, as well as employment of techniques available to the final user or system support personnel. In this context, this article examines principles, methods and procedures in mobile device investigation, which nowadays represent a multifunctional, powerful computer weapon, and considers the necessity to update concrete procedures in accordance with the development and growth of IT.

Introduction: Society today is overly overwhelmed with advertisements for attractive products and ways to purchase them. The population is becoming richer and richer, which means they can spend more money on entertainment and their own pleasures.   Purpose: To present the role of shopping in human life in 2021 from the perspective of consumers. Material and method: The study was carried out using the author's questionnaire. 260 questionnaires were collected and analyzed. Results: Men (52.3%) and women (47.7%) participated in the study. More than half of them (53.8%) were employed and more than 30% were studying.  One in three respondents earned cash income greater than the minimum national gross rate. Nearly 60% rated their material situation as good. The analysis showed knowledge of the term "consumerism" by 83.1% of people. The study showed that the respondents shopped several times a week (69.2%) and even daily (18.5%). In order to buy food products, they usually visited supermarkets (64.6%), and in buying products they were most often guided by quality (47.7%). They are most encouraged by sales (50.8%), as well as recommendations from friends (18.5%) and product ingredients (12.6%). The data shows that as many as 58.5% of respondents used shopping to improve their mood. They were also induced to buy products by advertisements in the media (49.2%). Conclusions: For consumers, apart from the price, the quality of the products is of primary importance. They buy mainly in large supermarkets and via the Internet. The advertisements in media, promotions and the desire to improve one’s mood are the reasons of increasing phenomenon of consumerism.

Abstract Monitoring the quality of drinking water needs to be conducted considering the important role of water in human life. Mixed Multivariate EWMA-CUSUM (MEC) chart is a multivariate control chart developed for observing the mean process. Based on the previous studies, this chart has better performance in detecting a shift in the process mean. In this research, the MEC is applied to observe the grade of drinking water. However, there is autocorrelation in drinking water data which lead to more false alarm occurred. Therefore, the Multioutput Least Square Support Vector Regression (MLS-SVR) model is employed to reduce or even remove the autocorrelation in the data. Using the optimal hyperparameter, the MLS-SVR algorithm produces the residuals of phase I with no autocorrelation. Those residuals are then used to form the MEC control charts. When the MEC is used to monitor the residual in phase I, there is no signal of out-of-control found. Further, in phase II, out-of-control observations are detected. The MEC chart can detect more signals out of control compared to the conventional Hotelling’s T 2 and Multivariate Exponentially Moving Average (MEWMA) charts.

This report offers a brief overview of the literature on the defining characteristics of democracy in the 21st century. This report seeks to map out a range of conceptual approaches to understanding democracy, evidence on emerging trends in democratisation, and challenges to realising democracy in its varied forms. The report begins with a discussion on definitions of democracy that have emerged in recent decades (Section 2), highlighting a range of qualifiers that are widely used to differentiate and analyse different democratic regime types. Section 3 summarises trends in key indicators of democracy from widely cited observers – The Economist Intelligence Unit and the V-Dem Institute - and recent trends in public opinion towards democracy, according to World Values and Pew Centre surveys. Section 4 gives a very brief overview of three leading challenges to democracy discussed widely in the literature – gender inequality; the role of media and social media; and declining quality of elections, freedom of expression and civic space.

<p>Kajian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui peran peran pendidikan Islam terhadap perubahan social yang terjadi dalam struktur dan fungsi masyarakat. Pendekatan dalam peneltian ini adalah penelitian  kepustakaan.   Pendidikan merupakan sistem  dan cara meningkatkan  kualitas hidup manusia dalam segala aspek kehidupan manusia. Bagaimana agar pendidikan itu tidak hanya hanyut oleh dinamika perubahan, tetapi ia mampu memerankan dirinya sebagai agen perubahan itu sendiri. Islam sebagai agama rahmat bagi seluruh alam, tentu sangat memperhatikan keadaan masyarakat. Hal ini terlihat dari bukti sejarah, bagaimana Nabi Muhammad SAW membangun  masyarakat Arab. Kemudian terus berkembang hingga Islam tersebar ke seluruh penjuru dunia. Hasil dari kajian ini menunjukkan bahwa Islam membangun masyarakat melalui pendidikan, karena proses pendidikan merupakan salah satu cara yang efektif dalam membangun umat. Dalam pendidikan Islam selalu memperhatikan dua sudut pandang dalam segala aspek, seperti aspek lahiriyah dan bathiniyah, aspek individual dan sosial, duniawi dan ukhrowi, yaitu terbentuknya  insan kamil.</p><p>Kata kunci: peran, pendidikan Islam, perubahan sosial.</p><p><em>THE ROLE OF ISLAMIC EDUCATION TOWARDS SOCIAL CHANGE. This study aims to find out the role of Islamic education towards social change that occurred in the structure and function of the community. This study uses library research. Education  is a system and way to improve the quality of human life in all aspects of human life. Education  as an aspect of life that cannot be separated from the community. How to make the education that not only strewn by the dynamics  change, but it was able to portray as an agent of change itself. Islam as a religion of mercy for all of nature certainly pays more attention to the circumstances of the community. This  is apparent from the evidence of history, how the Prophet Muhammad  built the Arabic community. Then continue to evolve until Islam spreads into all over the world.

Despite the significant success of the human population in the development of the planet's resources, man will most likely never be able to completely get rid of dependence on the material and energy mechanisms of the biosphere. The clearest proof of this is the existence of urban ecosystems, within which human living space is formed. However, there is no consensus among researchers on the participation of social and natural components in the formation of urban ecosystems. Moreover, there is no clear answer to the question of how and through what mechanisms the space of human life is formed in modern cities. The article analyzes the ontological affiliation of the category "living space". Numerous aspects of the formation of modern living space have been studied on the specific examples of urban ecosystems of Kryvyi Rih and Uman. In particular, sample surveys of residents of these cities were conducted, based on the results of which conclusions are made about the quality of living space. Tourist activity and tourist resources are considered by the authors as a field of harmonization of human-environment relations in modern conditions of formation of living space.
