Abstract

In this article we present the empirical base of the study, which consists of data obtained from social surveys of students of the branch of the Ufa State Oil Technical University in Oktyabrsky. The nationality of the respondents was stated according to self-identification of representatives of different nationalities living in the territory of different countries of the near and far abroad. The study involved 114 respondents aged from 17 to 21. The study applied a wide range of methods for collecting and processing empirical information. The authors applied some diagnostic techniques and methods of information collection used in the works of Russian researchers. The questionnaire (social survey) was used to study general demographic information, as well as to study the affective component of the national consciousness of foreign students – a sense of national identity and related emotional experiences.

  • The questions of the questionnaire were grouped into several blocks for foreign students of the USPTU branch in Oktyabrsky, which make up the largest number of all students: 1. Representatives from Arab countries (Iraq, Yemen, Syria, Egypt)

  • Social and professional activity inevitably leads to socialization and social self-identification of the individual in a multiethnic society, such as modern Russia

Summary

Introduction

In the first decades of the twenty-first century many countries became interested in expanding economic, political and cultural ties. Arab students demonstrated a higher level of national dominance (97%) than those of other ethnic groups. Our findings are consistent with the results of studies (table 1) which emphasize that the importance of personal ethnicity is not relevant for the group of the national majority (e.g. the representatives from the Russian Federation), especially in a peaceful national environment.
