2. ‘A Complete Negation of theWill to Live’ : A Phenomenological Evaluation of Schopenhauer’s QuietismVadim Gershteyn, 2025, izvirni znanstveni članek Opis: The author examines Arthur Schopenhauer’s concept of quietism: a philosophical stance that advocates detachment and negation of the will-to-live, as outlined in Schopenhauer’s The World as Will and Representation (1969). Schopenhauer, influenced by a Vedic philosophy that emphasizes ontological pessimism, perceives life as marked by suffering due to the will’s ceaseless striving. His ethical response to suffering, quietism, advocates withdrawal and stillness to transcend suffering. Employing a phenomenological approach, this author evaluates quietism in light of contemporary trauma research and psychological evidence, alongside Friedrich Nietzsche’s critique of Schopenhauer. Findings from mindfulness and exposure therapy studies suggest that complete withdrawal is unsustainable and detrimental to psychological well-being, which is contrasted with Schopenhauer’s radical negation of the will. Nietzsche’s philosophy of the will to power, though born from Schopenhauer’s Vedic-inspired ontology, emphasizes engagement with one’s suffering-filled life and transformation through it, thereby presenting a more dynamic, life-affirming alternative to Schopenhauer’s pessimistic withdrawal. The author concludes that while Schopenhauer’s insights into suffering are profound, his quietism is incomplete, thereby necessitating integration with active engagement and ethical responsibility to address human challenges effectively.

3. Effects of different lifting strategies during resistance training on lower body function in untrained adult women : a comparison between 6-weeks of 10% velocity loss and standard resistance trainingMatic Sašek, Hana Golob, Nejc Šarabon, 2026, izvirni znanstveni članek Opis: Introduction: This study investigated whether velocity-based resistance training provides additional benefits to lower limb performance compared to standard exercise execution. Methods: Twenty untrained adult women (37–55 years) were randomly assigned to two resistance training groups to perform resistance training with three sets of four lower body exercises per week for 6 weeks. The number of repetitions and lifting velocity differed between the groups. One group performed lower body exercises with maximal intent and a 10% velocity loss threshold termination (VB10%; n = 10), while the other group performed 10 repetitions at a standard 1:2 s concentric:eccentric tempo (STD; n = 10). The number of repetitions was recorded during the sessions. Before and after the intervention, power, muscular endurance and dynamic stability of the lower limbs were assessed using the mean propulsive velocity (MPV) and power (MPP) at 70% one-repetition maximum in the squat and deadlift, the Y-balance test (YBT) and the 30-second sit-to-stand test (STS), respectively. A two-way analysis of variance was used to assess the effects of time, group, and their interaction. Results: The difference between 10 repetitions in the STD and repetitions in the VB10% was assessed using a one-sample t-test. Both groups significantly improved MPP, MPV, YBT and STS [mean difference (MD) ≥5.4%; effect size (ES) ≥0.6]. Although 2.5–2.7 less repetitions were performed in VB10%, the improvements in MPP and MPV were slightly greater (ES ≥ 1.2 vs. ≥ 0.8). Conversely, STS and YBT improved more in STD (ES ≥ 0.4 vs. ≥ 1.0). Discussion: Regardless of the lifting method used, the training intervention improved lower limb power, muscular endurance and dynamic stability, indicating that resistance training is an effective strategy for enhancing these capacities in untrained adult women. Using 10% threshold may be a more time-efficient strategy for improving lower-limb power in this population and could represent a promising approach for mitigating early declines in power over time.

7. Monoid algebras and graph productsWilfried Imrich, Igor Klep, Daniel Smertnig, 2025, izvirni znanstveni članek Opis: In this note, we extend results about unique n^th roots and cancellation of finite disconnected graphs with respect to the Cartesian, the strong and the direct product, to the rooted hierarchical products, and to a modified lexicographic product. We show that these results also hold for graphs with countably many finite connected components, as long as every connected component appears only finitely often (up to isomorphism). The proofs are via monoid algebras and generalized power series rings.
