Abstract:

In the monograph, on the basis of a qualitatively new concept of organized market integrity, an attempt is made to build an ontology of the general theory of markets. Ontology is defined by a system of basic concepts and categories, around which conceptual structures are formed, forming abstract models designed to reflect the essential properties and patterns of the structure, functioning, behavior and development of the market in interrelation and interaction with the external environment. The structure of scientific knowledge is fixed in the form of hypotheses of organized market integ

Abstract:

Dissatisfaction with societal structuralist approaches with culturological determinism characteristic of them resulted in another crisis of modern sociology. Traditional sociology ignored a person capable of making individual decisions and making informed choices, and in traditional economic theory this person hung in an airless space in the absence of supportive social structures. Sociologists began to show interest in what is happening in neo-institutional economic theory, and, moreover, intensively borrow its conceptual apparatus. Attempts to resolve the crisis are demonstrated today

Abstract:

There are tangible benefits to the use of models to inform dissemination and implementation research. However dissemination and implementation scientists may find it difficult to select, adapt, and apply a model to their work. Guidance is provided on how to select a model, as answering several questions (e.g., the research question, scope of the study) can aid a research team in selecting a model. Given the large number of models available and the amount of work required to develop a new model, a dissemination and implementation researcher likely does not need to create a new model.

Abstract:

Mathematical competence rests on developing knowledge of concepts and of procedures (i.e. conceptual and procedural knowledge). Although there is some variability in how these constructs are defined and measured, there is general consensus that the relations between conceptual and procedural knowledge are often bi-directional and iterative. The chapter reviews recent studies on the relations between conceptual and procedural knowledge in mathematics and highlights examples of instructional methods for supporting both types of knowledge.

The evolution of the decision-making approach to foreign policy analysis has been punctuated by challenges to rational choice from cognitive psychology and organizational theory.

The neurobiology of insomnia is intertwined with that of sleep and wakefulness. Conceptual models of insomnia are being refined to accommodate sleep-wake research and insomnia-specific research, including animal models. Neurobiological abnormalities associated with insomnia include homeostatic dysregulation; circadian abnormalities; and somatic, cognitive, and cortical hyperarousal. The role of hyperarousal in particular has been supported by evidence generated from a variety of psychophysiological measures and neuroimaging techniques.
