FINDING OF OPTIMAL SUBSET STRUCTURE IN THE KNAPSACK PROBLEM

open access: yesДоклады Белорусского государственного университета информатики и радиоэлектроники, 2019
An algorithm for solving the knapsack problem based on the proposed multi-criteria model is considered. The implementation of this algorithm allows to define the structure of the optimal subset as a union of certain elements of a Pareto layers group into

Longitudinal Relations Among Theory of Mind, Advanced Theory of Mind, and Executive Function From Ages Four to Seven

open access: yesDevelopmental Science, Volume 29, Issue 3, May 2026.
ABSTRACT This longitudinal study examined the developmental relations between first‐order Theory of Mind (ToM), advanced ToM, and executive function (EF) from ages 4 to 7.5. Two‐hundred‐three German children were assessed at ages 4, 5.5, and 7.5 on measures of ToM, EF (working memory, inhibition, cognitive flexibility), general cognition, and language.

Art Adds Value to Ecological Field Courses: A Multi‐Year Case Study in Higher Education

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
This study presents Earth Projects, an interdisciplinary, place‐based field course that merges ecology and ecological art (eco‐art) to foster deeper engagement with environmental learning. Pre‐ and post‐survey comparisons show that incorporating eco‐art can strengthen students' emotional connections to their identities, disciplines, and place.
