Abstract
The paper interprets and explores two main constructs: “self-esteem” and “motivation for affiliation”. They are placed in the field of psychology of youth, the subjects are students of humanities. The study was conducted at Southwestern University “Neofit Rilski”, Blagoevgrad, Bulgaria. The aim of the study is to reveal the relationship between self-esteem and motivation for affiliation, as they are compared in students majoring in psychology with students majoring in pedagogy and speech therapy. Self-esteem is the core of personality, experiences and behavior. It is important for interactions in young people. The need to belong to the group (affiliation) is a prerequisite for self-knowledge and satisfies a number of basic needs. Using a standardized self-assessment test and Albert Mehrabian’s affiliation test, we track how the level of self-assessment determines affiliation needs. These: 1. Students with average and above average level of self-esteem have a higher motivation for affiliation, compared to students with low and very high level of self-esteem. 2. We assume that there will be statistically significant differences in the manifestations of the two constructs in students from the specialty of Psychology and other students from the humanities. We expect that psychology students will have average and above average levels of self-esteem, which will affect their motivation for affiliation, compared to students from the other group. The results of the research provide information about the personal development of students in the humanities, which could be used by university professors in order to optimize the learning process and create conditions for full inclusion of students in university life.
Highlights
The linguistic personality of a public relations (PR) specialist is a new phenomenon, which emerged in the late 20th and early 21st centuries in the globalizing world
Metacognition is an action that must be integrated into the teaching and learning process, so, the student should be aware of how he advances and retreats in his own thinking, but it is necessary that he discerns what skills are more complex to develop when executing a task, these are some of the premises that the teacher must consider in his planning in order to monitoring and controlling learning together with the strategies he uses to generate a reflection on his thinking
The evolution of “memory studies” is a consistent deployment of the program of interdisciplinary synthesis, which initially developed on the basis of the counter steps of sociologists and psychologists to understand the problems of temporality and memory and led in the first half of the XX century to the inclusion of specialists in other disciplines, primarily historians, and the creation of the conceptual apparatus of memory studies
Summary
The linguistic personality of a PR specialist is a new phenomenon, which emerged in the late 20th and early 21st centuries in the globalizing world. This significant advance in translation studies brought about by corpus linguistics has provided an empirical basis for translation research, opening up new perspectives for the scientific study of translation In addition to this empirical turn (Snell-Hornby, 2010), translation studies as a discipline have undergone a cultural turn (Ibid.) whereby translations have started to be viewed as a linguistic phenomenon and as a cultural and social fact. This has had implications both for translator education, implying that translators have had to develop various competencies besides the linguistic competence, namely communicative, cultural, translation and generic competencies (see Antunović, 2003), and translation research, placing a text within a context and setting it against other similar texts, providing a broader scope for investigation. In terms of the Indigenous methods, they are “a mix of existing methodological approaches and Indigenous practices” (Smith, 1999: 144), and as this approach has developed, Indigenous methods have become more and more distinctly Indigenous (Kovach, 2009; Lavallée, 2009)
