quality, quality of employment, and quality of working life within English- and Russian- language academic
literature. Through a systematic review of publications, the study examines key concepts such as job
quality, quality of employment, decent work, and quality of working life, identifying their conceptual
distinctions, disciplinary specificities, and ...

Differentiation in foreign language teaching is essential for accommodating individual trajectories of communicative competence development; however, its implementation is hindered by teachers' lack of time, resources, and training. Artificial intelligence (AI) helps overcome these barriers by enabling differentiation across content, process, and product. The article illustrates practical techniques supported by AI, including sample prompts and ...

Mylonas Y., L.: Routledge, 2026.
This book presents a critical examination of how cultural forms, ranging from cinema and TV to literature, address class within the overarching context of a crisis conjuncture, specifically the period following the 2008 financial crash. It demonstrates how culture serves as a crucial site for capturing the contemporary "structure of feeling", publicly mediating the period's ...

Поскольку древнерусским князьям приходилось постоянно принимать участие в походах и сражениях, идеал правителя должен был, несомненно, отражать представления о них как о воинах. Предполагаемая рядом исследователей первостепенная важность воинского образа
князей, включающего их ратные и полководческие качества, однако, не находит подтверждения среди летописных некрологов (посмертных панегириков). Эти текст конструируют посмертный образ князя, отмечая его важнейшие качества ...

Introduction. The study analyzes the structure and volume of workload for faculty at Russian medical universities amidst increasing student numbers, rising demands for students' clinical training, scientific output, and continuous professional education. The relevance of the topic stems from the contradiction between official regulatory requirements and the actual excessive workload of medical educators. The aim is to provide ...

This article examines the residence of the British envoy James Harris in St. Petersburg (1777—1783) as an instrument of his diplomatic mission. Despite growing scholarly interest in informal diplomacy, the embassy house as a space for representation and everyday sociability has rarely been the subject of dedicated research. Drawing on a wide range of sources, ...

This paper proposes Covariate-Balanced Weighted Stacked Difference-in-Differences (CBWSDID), a design-based extension of weighted stacked DID for settings in which untreated trends may be conditionally rather than unconditionally parallel. The estimator separates within-subexperiment design adjustment from across-subexperiment aggregation: matching or weighting improves treated-control comparability within each stacked subexperiment, while the corrective stacked weights of Wing et ...

This article is devoted to the phenomenon of intrinsic motivation, to understand which two models are proposed. We study how positive/negative intrinsic motivation to work (experienced utility) affects worker's individual labour supply (model I) and the amount of effort they exert (model II). In model I, we use intrinsic motivation to explain the positive/negative slope ...

In this paper, we develop a formal mathematical model aimed to explain the Dunning-Kruger effect that beginners systematically overestimate their own competence in various fields of knowledge and activity. We argue that the Dunning-Kruger effect arises from the emotional nature of confidence combined with unknown unknowns that it simply can not take into account due ...

This paper attempts to model the evolutionary theory of modernization and democratization. The model reflects the key provisions of R. Inglehart and C. Welzel's theory and provides a microfoundation for the adaptation of subjective values to the objective importances of the survival factors and the structure of the labour markets from the perspective of evolutionary ...

Many competitive environments allow for a third party to be indirectly involved by supporting one or both sides in the conflict. Such support can come from trade partners, colleagues, or allies, who can in turn benefit from a supported party's success. We use theory and an experiment to investigate how support relationships develop endogenously in ...

The study explores a psychological phenomenon of inaction inertia-avoiding action after missing a more favourable opportunity. Unlike action inertia (e.g.,sunk costs effect), inaction inertia has been less studied, particularly in economic contexts. Considering the reference dependent nature of the phenomenon, I build on the work of Kőszegi and Rabin (2006) to examine how past experiences ...

Simplified tax regimes with explicit eligibility thresholds are a common tool which reduces tax burden but distorts firms’ behavior, creating local bunching just below the threshold. However, we show that when firms have access to business splitting their responses extend far beyond the local margin. Our model demonstrates that splitting reduces local bunching but amplifies ...

In recent years, an emerging body of empirical research has shown that tax audits, in addition to recovering unpaid taxes (direct effect), increase future tax compliance (indirect or dynamic effect). This literature also suggests that updating expectations induced by audit experience plays an important role in explaining this indirect effect. However, exactly how taxpayers form ...

While the emerging empirical literature shows that collateral tax sanctions (CTSs) - such as driver’s license suspensions or passport denials - appear to be effective instruments to enforce tax debt collection, there are still few theoretical arguments to explain why. In this paper, I model enforcement of tax debt collection and provide a new rationale for why it could ...

We study the application of factor investing in the market for real estate (REITs). The analysis of traditional factor strategies, such as momentum, value, size and profitability, reveals their unstable and atypical behavior in comparison to the equity market, however, there is a strong momentum effect in the factor strategies. We propose a new dynamic ...
