Compounds, typically defined as words composed of two or more words, are frequently found in everyday English usage. In the field of morphology, a number of word formation processes are present, including compounding as one of the most productive ones. This paper introduces some of the most important notions of the word-formation - noun compounds and adjective compounds. Following the theoretical introduction briefly explaining the structure and types of these compounds, the corpus selected for this article provides a classification of 32 noun compounds and adjective compounds in this study, including a discussion of their structure as well as stress patterns found in the compounds. For the purposes of the analysis, the examples were identified and collected from several women’s magazines, namely various issues of Cosmopolitan magazines, analysed and classified in order to present examples of noun and adjective compounds as well as some metaphorical compounds. In addition to the fact that the meaning of compounds is to a certain degree compositional and easy to comprehend, there are still compounds which may imply metaphorical or figurative meanings, and thus form confusion among speakers of listeners. In this way, compounding is believed to be one of the most productive aspect of language, as it can form as many words and composite words as possible in order to form a completely new meaning, either literal or non-literal. The paper concludes that compounding is considered to be highly productive, especially when interpreting compounds, with a particular focus on nouns and adjectives as heads.

From the development of civilization, structure of large settlements have changed in accordance with the needs of the population and the level of scientific and technological development. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, more smart services have been developed in countries around the world, including Serbia. Based on research and past experiences, the problem of implementing smart traffic and mobility has been identified as a priority with the aim of sustainability. Mutual interactions between different actors will be presented with the aim of understanding cities as structures that must be viewed in the future as smart urban ecosystems that change over time. The research methodology will include case studies and research of opinions of experts in the field of urban planning, mobility and sustainability, and an interview will also be conducted among residents. We propose modern solutions for designing cities as urban ecosystems that can overcome the increasingly negative impacts.

Society and clubs invest a lot of effort, time and money to discover young people who have the potential to develop into top athletes. But, there are still many questions about a universal theoretical approach, agreed terminology and possible characteristics of talent that would bring practical benefit.The purpose of this paper is to clarify the essence of talent concept in sports and to evaluate the degree of agreement between the opinions of Serbian youth soccer coaches on the important issues of detection, identification and selection of talented soccer players in comparison with other researches. 161 youth soccer coaches with a high level of competence participated in the survey.The word talent is often heard in everyday speech to emphasize the qualities or skills of a young person who achieves above-average results in a certain field. There is no universal definition of talent. Over time, talent concept expanded and dynamized, so that today talent is approached multidimensionally, assessed holistically, and a conclusion is reached with a certain degree of probability. Coaches traditionally select players based on personal taste, observing movement patterns in the game and using their intuition based on experience, and using test results to monitor changes in morphological characteristics and motor skills. In addition to the existence of a disposition for the development of appropriate abilities, strong motivation and a favorable environment with an optimal training process are needed to realize the talent according to the planned outcome in the form of a competitive result. A reliable judgment about the ultimate range of a talented athlete is hindered by intense developmental changes in childhood and youth, due to which talent changes its structure. Further research should be focused on discovering the main and secondary components of giftedness, their interconnections, influences and changes during childhood and youth. This topic raises many questions such as: How not to stifle the individuality of talent? Would the discovery of the undiscovered make the game of soccer lose its charm?

This publication highlights the mix methods in political sciences methodology. Mix methods are defined as `mixing` both qualitative and qualitative methods, or their elements or integration of some elements. Qualitative methods are interpretive and refers to interviews, focus groups, qualitative date analysis and other methods in order to determine the categories, patterns and, mostly important, the participant`s meanings. Quantitative methods are survey and experiment. Survey is used to describe numerically a trend or certain opinion, while in experiment the goal is to identify the outcome, in comparing two groups, one control and other with experimental factor. There are diverse classification of mixed methods designs. During these twenty years, many methodologists have developed more than forty types, so Creswell and Plano Clark have made more concise several classifications of mixed methods designs which can be applied in social sciences. The object of this article is to point out four mix methods designs which can be applied in political sciences, such as Explanatory design, Exploratory design, Convergent and Embedded design. The author`s objective is to explain each of these designs, the procedures, challenges and their application. Mixed methods are used in political sciences when only qualitative or quantitative method cannot answer to a research question. The intention of `mixing` or integration of elements or procedures, collecting and analyzing data of both qualitative and qualitative methods, is to achieve more significant conclusions.

This article explores the various facets of violence, identifying key commonalities among definitions, including repetitive occurrences, intentional harm, imbalanced power dynamics, and the desire to inflict psychological and physical suffering on victims. The categorization of violence into physical, verbal, and sexual forms is a longstanding practice. Violence is defined as the deliberate, unjustifiable infliction of harm on others, encompassing a wide range of negative consequences endured by victims. However, the mere act of harm is insufficient to classify an action as violent; it must be accompanied by intent. Harmful behaviors encompass verbal and non-verbal actions, spanning physical harm, material damage, and psychological distress, such as intimidation, humiliation, and social isolation. This article underscores the urgency of addressing violence in our society, emphasizing the pivotal role of educational institutions in creating safe and harmonious environments for children and students.

Despite numerous studies and examples, the phrase “IoT”-Internet of Things continues to be a source of confusion for individuals. The purpose of the research is to give a basic explanation of IoT. Despite the increasing usage of the term, there is currently no accepted definition or understanding of what the Internet of Things actually entails. IoT technology is increasingly expanding into practically all areas of everyday life. Today, more and more companies are starting to introduce a number of IoT-based products and services. We can say that IoT is the merging of the physical and digital worlds through the Internet. The Internet of Things will affect many different domains. Provisions for both the structure’s security and users’ privacy must be included in the regulatory framework. It will also be necessary to take into account any legal obstacles that might prevent the Internet of Things from being fully utilized.
尽管有大量的研究和实例，"物联网"--Internet of Things（物联网）一词仍然让人感到困惑。本研究旨在对物联网进行基本解释。尽管这个词的使用越来越多，但目前还没有公认的定义或对物联网实际含义的理解。物联网技术正日益扩展到日常生活的几乎所有领域。如今，越来越多的公司开始推出一系列基于物联网的产品和服务。我们可以说，物联网就是通过互联网将物理世界和数字世界融合在一起。物联网将影响许多不同的领域。在监管框架中必须包括对结构安全和用户隐私的规定。还必须考虑到可能妨碍物联网得到充分利用的任何法律障碍。

Action research represents a distinct approach to research that differs from traditional research methods. Instead of solely focusing on describing and explaining phenomena, action research aims to enhance practice in the real world. This means it focuses on identifying issues in practice, developing and testing interventions to address these issues, and ultimately evaluating the effects of these interventions. The research problem is the motivation of preschool teachers to engage in action research to improve educational practice. The aim of the research is directed towards determining the significance of action research that would contribute to the development of knowledge, skills, and abilities to improve the work of preschool institutions. The results have shown that preschool teachers have developed an awareness of the importance of action research and reflective practice, as the results obtained through the t-test indicate statistically significant changes in the respondents’ attitudes at the level of p=.000. Preschool teacher are motivated to enhance collaboration with cultural institutions through their own thinking and actions (p=.000), and it is important to them that preschool institutions establish collaboration with cultural institutions (p=.000).
行动研究是一种有别于传统研究方法的独特研究方法。行动研究的目的不是仅仅关注描述和解释现象，而是要加强现实世界中的实践。这意味着，它侧重于发现实践中的问题，制定和测试解决这些问题的干预措施，并最终评估这些干预措施的效果。研究的问题是学前教师参与行动研究以改进教育实践的动机。研究的目的是确定行动研究的意义，以促进知识、技能和能力的发展，改进学前教育机构的工作。研究结果表明，学前教育机构教师对行动研究和反思性实践的重要性有了一定的认识，因为通过 t 检验得出的结果表明，受访者的态度在 p=.000 的水平上发生了统计学意义上的显著变化。学前教育教师有动力通过自己的思考和行动加强与文化机构的合作（p=.000），学前教育机构与文化机构建立合作关系对他们很重要（p=.000）。

Magnets are a part of students’ daily experience, whether within technical devices, souvenirs, toys or included in various school experiments. The aim of this research was to gain insight into the way primary students understand magnetism and to estimate the effect of teaching to the development of concepts about magnetism. For the purpose of this research, a diagnostic knowledge test was designed which includes teaching content about the concept of magnets, their properties, interaction and application. A total of 160 of second, third and fourth grade students attending elementary schools „Siniša Glavašević“ and „Nikola Andrić“ from Vukovar and „Bijelo Brdo“ from Bijelo Brdo, Republic of Croatia, were included in the study. The results showed that there were no statistically significant differences in knowledge test scores among girls and boys. The knowledge test achievements according to age (second, third and fourth grade) were statistically significant between second and third grade, as well as second and fourth. The difference in test scores between third and fourth grade students was observed, but it was not statistically significant. The analysis of students’ responses according to each test question confirmed the absence of differences according to gender but significant differences according to age, as well as the persistence of some typical misconceptions. The overall level of knowledge test achievement was rather low throughout the sample, indicating that primary students lack sufficient knowledge and that the majority of students fail to completely and accurately answer the questions about magnetic phenomena. Based on the results of this study it could be concluded that the process of developing concepts about magnetism within the course Nature and Society from the second to the fourth grade is insufficiently effective. We recommend that the contents about magnetism should be studied from the very beginning of primary school education. Furthermore, it is necessary to apply innovative teaching methods, strategies and models, while connecting these contents with students’ everyday experiences.

The omnipresence of social media has significantly influenced and shaped contemporary businesses. Online presence has become one of the main prerequisites for survival and success of companies in a dynamic and competitive environment. Digital presence and image of a company in online marketplace has become much more important than ever before. The aforementioned was especially pronounced during the COVID-19 pandemic when the period was marked by social distancing of people in their physical environment. Interestingly, social distancing ultimately led to the increased use of the Internet in conducting everyday personal and professional activities. The purpose of this paper is twofold. First purpose is to investigate social media presence of audit firms in Serbia. The second purpose is to analyze correlation between the financial performance of audit firms and their social media metrics during the COVID-19 pandemic. The contribution of this paper is to investigate to what extent Serbian audit firms use social networks for promoting their consulting and auditing services, with the purpose of attracting new clients. Results show that audit firms that belong to international networks are significantly more present on social media, while approximately 80% of domestic audit firms in Serbia are not present on the observed social media platforms: Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn. Regarding profitability, results show that there is a high statistically significant correlation between EBITDA and observed metrics of Linkedin and Instagram social networks.
