Technosphere Thinking in the Transformations of Earth Sciences

The paper focuses on identifying factors of influence of technosphere consciousness on the state of Earth sciences. The comparative analysis of current philosophical and scientific advances showed changes in a status of technosphere consciousness in culture. The authors formulated a hypothesis on a fusion of scientific rationality of Earth sciences with an axiological area of culture. A special methodology was developed to trace and demonstrate a determination influence of technosphere consciousness on the logic of development of Earth sciences and the state of communication processes in society. The authors described consequences of risks occurred as a result of strengthening the independence of technosphere consciousness and modeled opportunities of their minimization. It was proved that in the information communication society technosphere consciousness could form a new paradigm foundation for Earth sciences. The authors described a special character of the correlation between the state of technosphere consciousness, a level of development of technosphere and the status of Earth sciences. They determined key areas for negative consequences of blurring semantics of technosphere consciousness. © 2021 Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd

Психолингвистический анализ устной и письменной речи у пациентов с расстройствами шизофренического спектра (на примере автобиографических текстов)

Introduction. There are speech disorders as one of the psychopathology diagnostics criteria in ICD and DSM. However, the linguistic component is not enough studied, so the study topic is actual. The use of text analysis allows to apply psycholinguistics approach to the objectification of thinking disorders. The objective of the study was aimed to detect psycholinguistics features of oral and written speech in patients with schizophrenia.Methods and materials. Participants were 29 schizophrenia patients, 20 patients with personality disorder and 25 healthy participants. Methods: expert assessment, anamnestic assessment, experimental-psychological (tests of thinking, collect memories), linguistic analysis, statistical analysis.Results. Oral speech of patients with schizophrenia is complex and volume, the writing speech is «factual», lexically varied and low communicative. In oral and writing speech of patients with schizophrenia, there are three text types correlated with thinking disorders. Texts of patients with schizophrenia are less volume, simpler in structure, describe more facts than thoughts and feelings, unlike patients with personality disorder and healthy participants.Conclusion. Texts of patients with schizophrenia, personality disorder and healthy participants are different in formal linguistics characteristics. Such characteristics of the speech of patients suffering from schizophrenia as a lot of impersonal sentences describing object attribute, complexly organized speech, emphasis on describing emotions and oneself using the pronoun «I» allow to suppose that the patient has thinking disorders: thinking distortion by formal and latent ways of object attributions, thinking purposefulness disorder, thinking «versatility».Введение. Нарушения речи – один из диагностических критериев психической патологии, прописанных в МКБ и DSM, но лингвистический компонент исследован мало, поэтому тематика исследования актуальна. Использование текстового анализа позволяет применить психолингвистический подход к объективизации нарушений мышления.Цель – выявление психолингвистических особенностей устной и письменной речи у пациентов с шизофренией.Методы и материалы. Выборка – 74 человека: пациенты, страдающие шизофренией, расстройством личности, а также условно здоровые лица. Методы: экспертных оценок, клинико-психологический, экспериментально-психологический (исследование мышления, воспоминаний), психолингвистический метод, методы математической статистики.Результаты. Устная речь пациентов с шизофренией сложнее по структуре и объемнее, чем письменная, а письменная речь чрезмерно «фактологичная», с низкой коммуникативной направленностью. В письменной и устной речи пациентов с шизофренией выделяется три типа текстов, взаимосвязанных с нарушениями мышления. В отличие от текстов пациентов с расстройством личности и условно здоровых лиц, тексты пациентов с шизофренией меньше по объему, более простые по структуре, больше описывают факты, а не чувства и мысли.Заключение. Существуют различия по формально-лингвистическим признакам между текстами пациентов с шизофренией, расстройством личности и условно здоровыми лицами. Такие характеристики речи пациентов, страдающих шизофренией, как множество безличных предложений, описывающих качество объекта, сложно организованная речь, акцент на описании эмоций и себя с использованием местоимения «Я», позволяют предполагать наличие у пациента нарушений мышления: искажение процесса обобщения с актуализацией латентных и формальных признаков предметов, нарушение целенаправленности мышления, разноплановость мыслительной деятельности

CP Studies and Non-Standard Higgs Physics

There are many possibilities for new physics beyond the Standard Model that feature non-standard Higgs sectors. These may introduce new sources of CP violation, and there may be mixing between multiple Higgs bosons or other new scalar bosons. Alternatively, the Higgs may be a composite state, or there may even be no Higgs at all. These non-standard Higgs scenarios have important implications for collider physics as well as for cosmology, and understanding their phenomenology is essential for a full comprehension of electroweak symmetry breaking. This report discusses the most relevant theories which go beyond the Standard Model and its minimal, CP-conserving supersymmetric extension: two-Higgs-doublet models and minimal supersymmetric models with CP violation, supersymmetric models with an extra singlet, models with extra gauge groups or Higgs triplets, Little Higgs models, models in extra dimensions, and models with technicolour or other new strong dynamics. For each of these scenarios, this report presents an introduction to the phenomenology, followed by contributions on more detailed theoretical aspects and studies of possible experimental signatures at the LHC and other colliders.Comment: Report of the CPNSH workshop, May 2004 - Dec 2005, 542 pages.
