CORPORATE INTEGRATION AS A FACTOR OF INTENSIFICATION OF THE COMPANY`S INNOVATION CAPACITY
DescriptionThe article investigates a relation between the company`s innovation capacity and its integration strategy. The author considers main elements of innovation capacity: access to new technology, dynamic entrepreneurship, reproducible competitive advantages, supply of complementary goods. Further in the article main forms of corporate integration are being analysed: from zero integration to “mild” integration in the form of entrepreneurial networks and “strong” integration in the form of M&A. The author analyses the effect of different integration forms on the elements of a company`s innovation capacity and makes a conclusion that integration may serve a purpose of increase of innovation capacity by creating a synergistic effect which is shown in increased company`s potential and reduced transaction costs. Stronger integration means stronger synergistic effect and its effects. However, the author shows that “mild” forms of integration through entrepreneurial networks and strategic alliances may be the most prospective for further research because such forms of integration allow to affect all the element of innovation capacity without sufficient costs of implementation of integration strategy

Description
The article is devoted to the study of factors of adaptation of Chinese students to educational environment of TPU. The goal of this work is to identify influence of different factors on adaptation of foreign students studying in Tomsk Polytechnic University. Various methods of data collection and analysis are used in the research –an associative experiment, open-ended questions and observation. As a result of the associative experiment main factors of adaptation of foreign students are revealed: interest in Tomsk, comfortable accommodation, professional tutors, relationship with peers and Russian language level. Weather and the need to adjust to new surroundings negatively influence adaptive capacity. Analysis of answers to the open-minded questions has confirmed the results of the associative experiment. Negative character traits are mentioned as factors that negatively influence adaptive capacity. The Russian language is regarded ambivalently by the Chinese students. It is perceived both as a negative and as a positive factor by the same respondents. Many students consider successful passing of Russian as a Foreign Language Test as personal success. Therefore, Russian is the most important factor of adaptation of the Chinese students in TPU

WOOL PRODUCTIVITY OF MERINO SHEEP OF IMPROVED GENOTYPES
06.00.00 Agricultural sciences
DescriptionThe article deals with the issue of improving the profitability of sheep breeding by using improved mutant genotypes in the breeding system. The results of studies of the main indicators of economic-useful traits are given, the dynamics of growth, level and quality of wool productivity of sheep of improved genotypes obtained on the basis of such breeds as Soviet merino and Stavropolskaya, as well as firstgeneration daughters cultivated in themselves are estimated. It was found that at birth, the live weight in the groups of the 3 group (the breeding of half-blooded hybrids "in oneself") was higher than that of the females from the 1 and 2 groups, respectively, by 0.50 kg, or 13.1%, and by 0.20 kg or 5.2% (P> 0.95). At a more senior age, the young, having a large live mass at birth, retained its rank position. The highest indicator of the cutting of physical wool was observed in animals of the 2 group, obtained as a result of the use of sheepproducers of Stavropolskaya breed on sheep of the Soviet merino. The parameters of the 1 and 3 group were lower by 0.6 kg - 12.3% and 0.17 kg - 3.5% (P> 0.95), respectively. The conclusion is made that the use of sheep-producers of the Stavropolskaya breed on the uterus of the Soviet merinos breed had a positive effect on the wool productivity and the live weight of the hybrid offspring. Further breeding of half-blooded hybrids “in oneself” showed the possibility of reproducing improved genotypes without losing the acquired qualities

Description
The situation which has developed in the Russian economy concerning investment activity taking into account the operating investment policy of the state is considered in the article. Today in the country the new aspect of the international relations demanding sharper and cardinal intervention of the state in the improvement of structure of investment resources develops. The purpose of this article is disclosure of the main characteristics of formation in dynamics of structural elements of investment resources and the offer of the directions of activization of the investment policy in Russia. Indexes of the main indicators of the investment activity in the Russian Federation are considered, the structure of investments into fixed capital by financing sources is analyzed. The main structural shifts in formation of the investment resources during the post-crisis period taking into account change of investment potential of institutional sectors and financial conditions of the investment activity in Russia are investigated. It is revealed that negative change of a situation with attraction of foreign investments into the Russian economy had significant effect on dynamics of investment resources. The situation, which developed in the economy of Russia quite precisely, lets to know that it is impossible to rely only on the self-regulating market. For more effective attraction of the investment resources strengthening of a role of the state support of investments, development and improvement of investment policy, searches of the most optimum cooperation of domestic enterprises with the foreign companies are offered

IMPROVING THE EFFICIENCY OF MANAGEMENT OF INNOVATIVE ACTIVITY OF ENTERPRISES
DescriptionMethods and models for assessing the effectiveness of management of innovative activities of enterprises allow to calculate its indicators for each individual innovation project that can potentially be included in the developed version of the plan, and for a version of the plan (program) of innovation development in general. In the existing practice, this problem is usually solved means of an assessment of the socioeconomic efficiency of their implementation. The objects of this assessment are commercial and budgetary efficiency. The output data of the specified process is: the payback period of investments (the period of their return) and the profitability index (return on investment) - when calculating commercial efficiency; the net discounted income of the state (budgetary effect), the profitability index and the period of return of budget funds - when determining budgetary efficiency. Within existing practice of assessing the effectiveness of the implementation of innovative plans and programs, enterprises usually only determine the financial results of the implementation, without linking them with the planned specific results of scientific and innovation activities. This practice is a consequence of the long dominance of the so-called "monetary" approach to solving this problem. Of course, it is important for the enterprise to reduce the costs of implementing the innovation project, and to increase the return on assets. However, it is also important for the enterprise to ensure that its innovative activity provides the maximum saving of not only production resources, but also labor resources (labor productivity) and material resources (material-output). It allows the enterprise to increase the efficiency of its innovation activities and ensure the achievement of the planned target indicators and indicators of its development program. In order to solve this problem, the main elements of innovative activities of enterprises and the trends of their development in modern conditions are identified in the article. A systematic analysis of this activity is carried out. The organizationaleconomic mechanism of innovative activity of enterprises is formalized, structured and investigated. The theoretical bases of the organizational and economic mechanism of innovative planning are considered. The economic-mathematical tools for adjusting short-term plans and a long-term program for the innovative development of enterprises are proposed

THE NUMBER OF LINEARLY ORDERABLE BINARY RELATIONS ON A FINITE SET
01.00.00 Physical-mathematical sciences
DescriptionPartially ordered set is a basic concept of modern settheoretic mathematics. The problem of linear set ordering with given binary relations is well-known. Every partial order over a finite set can be linearly ordered, but not every binary relation over this set can be linearly ordered as well. Up to now, there is no known formula for calculating the number of partial orders over a given finite set. It appears that there is a formula for calculating linearly ordered binary relations over a finite set. This article is concerned with derivation of this formula. The fact from work of G.N. Titov [9] that a binary relation over a finite set is linearly ordered if and only if any diagonal block, derived from the binary relation matrix as a result of setting main diagonal elements to zero, contains at least one zero row (diagonal block of matrix means any matrix composed of elements at the crossings of rows and columns of a given matrix with the same numbers), plays a key role in process of corroboration. The main conclusion of the article is a theorem that allows to find the number of linearly ordered binary relations over a set of n elements using the formula. A recurrence formula for the number of linearly ordered (irreflexive) binary relations over a finite set of n elements, provided in the lemma, was derived as well

VARIABILITY OF A PSYCHOTHERAPIST’S SPEECH TACTICS AS A FACTOR OF EFFECTIVE PERSUASION
10.00.00 Philological sciences
DescriptionCombinability of psychotherapist’s speech tactics used in the context of a therapy session is considered. Psychotherapeutic discourse is distinguished from similar notions of medical discourse and therapeutic discourse. The specificity and sequential organization of speech tactics are determined by the character of the interaction in the dyad “therapist – client”, which is categorized as oral unprepared semi-official nonpublic speech. The rationale for using tactics with therapeutic effect is to induce the reappraisal of the problem situation in the sphere of the addressee. Speech tactics form a syntagmatic sequence, based on the evaluative modus of the state of affairs: moving from a negative appraisal to a normative appraisal (normalization tactic); from a normative appraisal to a positive appraisal (positivization tactics). Psychotherapist’s speech tactics are an immediate response to the client’s preceding speech move. The repertoire of psychotherapist’s speech tactics includes justification, compliment, praise, joke, exaggeration, compensation, advice, warning, sympathy, definition, dissociation

DescriptionIn this article, the mythological archetype of Mountain is depicted in the interpretation of peoples of different epochs. The comparative analysis of archetype of Height, namely the Mountain in the R.L. Stevenson and R. Burns creative work is carried out. The archetype of Mountain has power and authority; it is changeable, bright and fully depicts the archetype of Height. Mountain is the abode of silence, modest witness, symbol reflects the desire of a man to reach height and hover over the earth. The archetype of mountain is versatile, unsteady, authors transform it, but in all cases, it accumulates the great power of energy, strength, it reflects fear and veneration. Moreover, the archetype of Mountain has all the indications of ambivalence. The examined mythologem is analyzed in Russian tales. The folklore creativity can reflect, probably, more widely the idea of archetype because legends, tales, heroic epics during time were modified and changed but the main concept often remained authentic. The analyzed symbol is in the title of the tale – “Cristal Mountain”. It means that symbol in the title of the article is archetypical
