The research presents findings resulting from a comparative analysis of the system of nominal inflection in four dialects of the Khanty language (Vahk, Vasyugan, Surgut, Salym). The analyzed idioms belong to the Eastern cluster that is opposed to the Western one according to the contemporary classification of dialects of the Khanty language [Solovar, Nakhracheva Shiyanova 2016]. Khanty is one of the minority languages in Siberia whose dialects differ in terms of their preservation as well as in the number of speakers who use them in daily communication. Of the four dialects under analysis the Vasyugan and Salym are hardly used by the ethnic speech community. In the analyzed dialects the noun has three inflectional categories: number, case and possession. In the morphological structure of the word these categories occur in the following order: Number marker + Possession marker + Case marker. For example, 1. Vas. kĭriw-l-əm-nə vehicle-PL-POSS.1SG-LOC ‘in my boats’; 2. Vas. kĭriw-ət-nə vehicle-PL-LOC ‘in boats’. The focus of the comparative analysis is similarities and differences in the system of nominal markers in the four dialects. The noun has 3 numbers: Singular, Dual and Plural. Each number has two forms: absolute and dependent. Their use depends on the presence or absence of the possessive markers in the word structure. In example 1 above the number marker -l is used in the dependent form and the marker -ət – in the absolute one. The system of possessive markers includes numerous forms which originate from pronominal stems [Honti 1986: 38]. Possessive markers simultaneously encode the number of the possessed and the person and number of the possessor. The analysis of the dialectal forms of possessive markers, for instance, reveals the fact that in all Eastern dialects with the 1SG of the possessor forms of the dual and plural number of the possessed tend to coincide. It is illustrated by the following examples: V. köɣ-kəl-äm stone-DU-POSS.2SG ‘my two stones’ and köɣ-l-äm stonePL-POSS.2SG ‘my stones’; Sur. păn-ɣəλ-am string-DU-POSS.2SG ‘my two strings’ and pănəλ-am string-PL-POSS.2SG ‘my strings’.
本研究通过对汉特语四种方言(Vahk, Vasyugan, Surgut, Salym)的名义词形变化系统进行比较分析，得出结论。根据汉特语方言的当代分类，所分析的习语属于东方集群，与西方集群相对[Solovar, Nakhracheva Shiyanova 2016]。汉蒂语是西伯利亚的少数民族语言之一，其方言在保存情况以及在日常交流中使用这些语言的人数方面有所不同。在所分析的四种方言中，瓦苏干语和萨利姆语很少被少数民族语言社区使用。在所分析的方言中，名词有三种屈折类型:数、格和占有。在单词的形态结构中，这些类别按以下顺序发生:数标记+占有标记+格标记。例如:1。血管。kĭriw-l——əmnəvehicle-PL-POSS。sg - loc“在我的船上”;2. 血管。kĭriw- æ t-n æ vehicle-PL-LOC ' in boats '。比较分析的重点是四种方言名义标记语系统的异同。名词有三个数字:单数、双数和复数。每个数都有两种形式:绝对数和从属数。它们的用法取决于单词结构中所有格标记的存在与否。在上面的示例1中，数字标记-l用于从属形式，而标记- t -用于绝对形式。所有格标记系统包括许多源自代词词干的形式[Honti 1986: 38]。所有格标记同时编码被占有者的编号以及被占有者的人和编号。例如，对所有格标记的方言形式的分析揭示了这样一个事实，即在所有东方方言中，所有格的双数和复数形式都趋于一致。下面的例子说明了这一点:V. kö * -k * l-äm stone-DU-POSS。2SG ' my two stones '和kö -l-äm stonePL-POSS。“我的石头”;苏尔。păn -ɣəλ是string-DU-POSS。2SG ' my two strings '和piln æ λ-am string-PL-POSS。sg“我的琴弦”。

Research on students from refugee backgrounds in higher education (HE) is scarce. Few studies identified academic integration of students who studied at TAFE and Monash University, Deakin University and RMIT in Victoria, and Curtin University of Technology in Western Australia (Earnest et al. 2010) as well as in South Australia at UNISA (Zufferey et al., 2013), however student experiences in the transitional pathway programs is undocumented. The existing research indicates that the educational institutions act as safe places where students of refugee backgrounds are able to reconcile the trauma of forced migration and transition to belonging and building relationships, developing cohesion and becoming socially responsible in a multiracial Australia (Cassity and Gow, 2005; Earnest, Housen and Gillieatt, 2007; Woods, 2009). Educational institutions are the settings in which many of the hopes of students from refugee backgrounds materialise. Given the central role educational institutions play, gaining better understanding of students' experiences of social and academic integration in HE is essential. This paper reports on a pilot study on experiences of ten students from refugee backgrounds studying at UNISA College to transition into university. It addresses the following questions: How students from refugee backgrounds negotiate university pathways program? What are their experiences of academic integration? If students from refugee backgrounds feel sense of belonging to the College? How significant is this to their academic and social development? Finally, this paper concludes with an exploration of how these understandings can be used to improve student engagement, academic integration and outcomes of students from CALD backgrounds.
高等教育中关于难民背景学生的研究很少。很少有研究确定在TAFE和莫纳什大学、迪肯大学和维多利亚州皇家墨尔本理工大学、西澳大利亚的科廷理工大学(Earnest et al. 2010)以及南澳大利亚的UNISA (Zufferey et al. 2013)学习的学生的学术整合，然而，学生在过渡途径课程中的经历是没有记录的。现有的研究表明，教育机构作为安全的地方，难民背景的学生能够调和被迫移民的创伤，过渡到归属感和建立关系，发展凝聚力，并成为多种族澳大利亚的社会责任(Cassity和Gow, 2005;欧内斯特，豪森和吉利亚特，2007;森林,2009)。教育机构是难民背景的学生实现许多希望的场所。鉴于教育机构发挥的核心作用，更好地了解学生在高等教育中融入社会和学术的经历是至关重要的。本文报告了一项关于十名难民背景的学生在南南萨学院学习过渡到大学的经历的试点研究。它解决了以下问题:来自难民背景的学生如何通过大学衔接课程?他们的学术融合经历是什么?来自难民背景的学生是否对学院有归属感?这对他们的学业和社会发展有多重要?最后，本文探讨了如何利用这些理解来提高来自CALD背景的学生的参与度、学术整合和成果。

Existing education system create blindness by constructing fix worldview through its social institutions (family, religion and education) in the name of truth, peace, democracy etc. The fix world view keeps people in the past full of hate and make blind to the present which is full of love, empathy and sensitivity. Because of the fix worldview, individual not only start perceiving other human beings as problem but also to the self. Individual looses all empathy and sensitivity towards life which is a real blindness to life. This fix worldview is a political consciousness. That is why, our understanding of the human being has become political. Because we understand people only through their religious, caste, class, gender, race and language differences which are politically constructed categories to make people blind towards life. Because of the fix worldviewa blindness to lifewe do not accept life as it is, rather perceive it as problem. As we do not accept human being as it is, rather we perceive him as problem because of his food, dress, belief etc. Such fix worldview or blindness is dangerous for the human society. That is why, such ‘mindset’ need to be checked and watched with awareness. And dancing, laughing, playing has a capacity to remove the fix worldviews trapped in the form of energy.

For the first time the comprehensive study of the terms of colour denoting semantic zones of "yellow", "green", "blue" on the material of the Uralic and Altaic languages, most of which belong to the languages of the minor peoples of the Russian Federation, is produced. The key material on the basis of which the comparison is made is the actual material of the Selkup language, taking into account its dialect features. Interesting and important conclusions about the etymology, semantic structure and typology of this class of vocabulary are obtained. The study reveals that some Uralic and Altaic languages are characterized by the presence of the so-called "yellow-green" systems, when a single term is used for "yellow" and "green"; in some languages there are "blue-green" systems, determined by the existence of the term which can mean both "blue" and "green"; the specificity of individual Uralic and Altaic languages is the presence of the terms that correspond to the attribution of the so-called "yellow-green-blue" systems (one term which can mean "blue", "yellow" and "green"). Mapping the data of the studied lexical and semantic features on the territory of Eurasia we indicate certain territorial specifics that can represent the dynamics of the orientation of the dissemination of linguistic phenomena: from the West "yellow-green" systems go, from the East – "blue-green" systems come. They meet just on the territory of Southern Siberia and its vicinity, where, according to the first dictionaries, most of the systems in the XIX century were "yellowgreen-blue".

As a high school student, I conducted a research project in some cities of Pakistan and Bangladesh. The goal of this research is to explore the relationship between the electricity generation level and economic development in developing countries and to figure out what are the factors result in power shortage and insufficient infrastructure for residents. During the two weeks in 2018, using the methods of field research and deep interview with both the locals and the CEO of some power plants, details about the hard life of local citizens and the aspects that extremely need improvement are recorded. According to an analysis of the electricity shortage problems and the causes in the inefficient national economic policies and company operating in a bureaucratic manner, there are some policies and suggestions aimed at addressing the problems: first, since the maintenance of a stable environment is the precondition for the development, the state should spend more efforts in restoring public order; second, the management operation of an electricity power company shall follow the principles of Efficiency First; third, on the premise of respecting the local traditional culture, the labor participation rate shall be properly enhanced; more importantly, the employment rate should improve by increasing the construction of local infrastructures. As a foreigner, in less than one month of investigation, I cannot fully understand all the problems and the more complex reasons. However, I hope these suggestions may become the reference to policymakers who are both capable and willing to solve related issues.

The objective of the study was to determine whether contingency management (CM) intervention also known as motivational incentive influences intrinsic motivation of clients in an institutionalized drug treatment centre. A Randomized controlled trial design was used in this study involving random assignment of subjects into experimental and controlled groups. A total of 44 clients were divided into two groups namely the experimental group who received the usual program with CM intervention (CM) and the control group receiving only the usual program (TAU). CM interventions are administered from the beginning of the first week to week 12th and terminated on the 13th to 16th week to observe the follow-up effect of CM's effectiveness on client motivation. CM interventions used in this study via sticker chart rewards system where every achieved positive behaviour changes in the treatment session will be rewarded with a reward sticker which will be put on the clients’ achievement chart. The sticker has a certain monetary value that can be exchanged with privileges or certain items. Experimental groups received CM rewards while no rewards are given to the control group. To measure the client's motivation level, two standardize instrument was used which was the University of Rhode Island Change Assessment (URICA) and the Treatment Motivation Questionnaire (TMQ). Qualitative data was also collected through a semi-structured interview to gain an in-depth input on the effectiveness of CM toward the client's intrinsic motivation as well as to determine the consistency of the quantitative findings. The results showed that CM effective in improving the intrinsic motivation of the clients towards the treatment programs. Results of the interview showed that most clients felt that CM helped increase their selfmotivation to participate in the treatment session and enhance their spirit to implement the knowledge learned from the treatment session.

The safety of road users is one of the most important elements of the functioning of every society. The data published by the European Commission shows that on roads in the EU in 2017 was 25.3 thousand deaths occuried in road accidents. To reduce the number of road accident victims, threats in this area should be identified and appropriate solutions implemented. The article presents factors in traffic accidents, elements of human mentality which have a significant impact on driving a vehicle, factors influencing a driver’s action in traffic and correlation of the system of safety management including the procedure of risk management. The article presents partial results of international scientific research carried out in Poland, Czech Republic and Slovak Republic. In the survey participated respondents from ten cities. Opinions were obtained from 642 people on the subject of individual personality factors determine the behaviour of vehicle drivers. Furthermore were presented respondents ́ answers regarding legal changes relating to the proposal penalties for drivers participating in road traffic under the influence of alcohol and drugs.

This paper is an attempt to analyse the onset of the issue of ecological paradigm and how it is context specific. The paradox of the western dissent of ideas and the newer perspective which sheds light upon the spaces which were never discussed before; it enables a fresh perspective through the methodological approach of relational sociology. On the onset of Paradigms as ways of categorising stories into groups, this paper is an attempt at unfolding the limitations to the concept of an archtype through the eyes of a social phenomenon. It allows the paradox of ideas which holds on to the archtype nature of a concept to allow itself to negotiate through the process of parallel developments, infact open itself to a newer idea on its own.
