Personal autonomy development and family functioning of Russian and Azerbaijan adolescents

IntroductionThe development of adolescent’s autonomy is influenced by both: family and culture. Cross-cultural studies show different autonomy development trajectories and culture-specific family organization tendencies. The comparison of autonomy development in different cultures can help in clarifying universal and culture-dependent aspects of autonomy development.ObjectivesThe present research studies adolescent’s autonomy in context of family functioning in Azerbaijani (Baku) and Russian (Moscow) adolescents.MethodsFamily Environmental Scale (FES), Method of unfinished sentences to study adolescent’s autonomy fields («I feel independent when…»), The Separation-Individuation Test of Adolescence (SITA) were used in the study with 201 adolescents, aged from 13 to 18.ResultsFamily functioning of adolescents from Moscow is less achievement oriented (U-test, p=0,000), family life is less organized (p=0,000) and controlling (p=0,000). Adolescents in Baku consider the value of independence in families higher (p=0,01).Context analysis of unfinished sentences shows universal categories of autonomy representation (autonomy in specific activities, autonomy as possibility to be alone) and culture specific representations: adolescents from Moscow describe autonomy more like «independence from others», whereas adolescents from Baku describe autonomy as «the presence of others nearby».Engulfment Anxiety shows negative correlations (р<0,01) with family cohesion (r=0, -0,474), conflict (r=-0,466) and independence (r=-0,326) for all adolescents, with expressiveness (r=-0,490) and achievement orientation(r=-0,286) by Moscow adolescence and with intellectual-cultural (r=-0,249) and recreational family orientation (r=-0,278) by Baku adolescents.ConclusionsAutonomy development in families has universal aspects (positive effects of cohesion, etc.), but Moscow adolescents are less focused on others and family in their autonomy development.DisclosureNo significant relationships.

The relationship between gratitude and well-being: The moderating effect of religiosity on university freshmen during the COVID-19 pandemic

The various challenges and difficulties faced by college and university freshmen (new students) during the COVID-19 pandemic can affect their well-being. This well-being condition is influenced by gratitude and religiosity, as well as the role of religiosity in moderating these relations, are the main objectives of this study. The research was conducted on new students in the 2020/2021 and 2021/2022 academic years (N = 2048). Data collection was made through surveys by distributing online questionnaires, including the Gratitude Questionnaire-6, the Short Muslim Belief and Practice Scale, and the WEMWBS Scale. Data analysis was performed using multiple regression and a moderation test. The results show an influence of gratitude (β = .928, p .01) and religiosity (β = .371 p .01) on well-being. Religiosity is demonstrated to moderate the relationship between gratitude and well-being (F = 251.656, p .01). The study has empirical implications in the form of the theory that career achievement and well-being orientation for new students will face various problems, but can be helped by introducing self-protective factors in the form of well-being, religiosity, and gratitude.

Does Self-Sacrifice Make Me Great? Research on the Relationship Between Employee Conscientiousness and Pro-Social Rule Breaking.

Based on the theory of purposeful work behavior, this study proposed that the two facets of employee conscientiousness, namely duty orientation and achievement orientation, have opposite effects on pro-social rule breaking (PSRB). We also explored the moderating effect of employees’ task characteristic (job autonomy) and social characteristic (leader reward omission) on the above relationships. Using two-wave data collected from 216 employee-supervisor dyads, we found that duty orientation was positively related to PSRB, while achievement orientation was negatively related to PSRB. Further, job autonomy, by amplifying employees’ perceived meaningfulness of their higher-order implicit goals, can strengthen the positive effect of duty orientation and the negative effect of achievement orientation on PSRB. Similarly, leader reward omission could also activate the negative effect of achievement orientation and PSRB, but not significantly moderate the positive relationship between duty orientation and PSRB. By separating the distinct role of facet-specific personality, our study sheds light on the relationship between employee conscientiousness and PSRB.

Variations in Demonstrated Emotional Intelligence: Trainee to Experienced Faculty Member.

To identify differences in emotional intelligence (EI)-related competencies between fellows and faculty in a cohort of pediatric critical care physicians. Single-center, cross-sectional observation study. Seventy-two-bed multidisciplinary pediatric critical care unit at a quaternary children's hospital (Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, Philadelphia, PA). Forty-seven critical care physicians, including 19 fellows and 28 faculty members, were assessed. A multidisciplinary team of 83 physicians, nurses, and nurse practitioners contributed to the assessments. None. A multirater EI assessment tool (Emotional and Social Competency Inventory 360) was used to measure EI competencies of participating physicians across 12 core competencies. Utilizing a priori scoring definitions, physician EI competencies were classified as strengths or areas for growth. Results were stratified based on provider experience, generating comparisons between fellow and faculty cohorts. Ninety-four percent (177/188) of distributed assessments were completed. Fellow strengths were identified as organization awareness, achievement orientation, and teamwork; areas for growth were influence and emotional self-awareness. Compared with fellows, faculty members demonstrated additional strengths in the domains of adaptability, emotional self-control, coach and mentor, positive outlook, inspirational leadership, and influence. This study provides the first characterization of EI competencies among trainees and faculty members using a validated multirater assessment tool. The descriptions of physician EI, based on years of experience, are an important piece of the foundation for future explorations into the advancement of physician EI and effective leadership.

Exploring emotional and social competencies in undergraduate students: Perspectives from CALD and non-CALD students

With the internationalisation of higher education, students from culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) backgrounds represent a significant proportion of the university student body in Australia. Research literature indicates that the unique cultural and linguistic challenges experienced by these students may adversely impact their academic performance and social integration in university settings. However, less is known about how the socio-emotional competencies of undergraduate CALD and non-CALD domestic English-speaking students compare. This cross-sectional quantitative study compares the emotional and social competencies in a cohort of CALD and non-CALD occupational therapy undergraduates. Data were collected at one Australian university from a group of 360 students enrolled in the Bachelor of Occupational Therapy (Honours) course. Participants completed the Emotional and Social Competency Inventory– University edition (ESCI-U). Multivariate regression analyses were used to compare between CALD and non-CALD students, controlling for students’ year level of study, age, and gender. Key findings from the regression analysis included the observation of indicate that non-CALD students having significant higher scores than CALD students on all the ESCI-U socio-emotional subscales, especially the Emotional Self-control, Achievement Orientation, Empathy and Teamwork from western perspectives. No difference was found between CALD and non-CALD student on two cognitive competencies- systems thinking and pattern recognition. These findings should be interpreted with caution considering CALD students may interpret the questions differently and demonstrate the competencies in different ways. Specific emotional and social competencies that need to be strengthened in students are discussed and recommendations are made to inform the preparation of evidence-based curricula.

Competencies for superior performance across management levels in the provincial government executive offices

PurposeThe purpose of this study is to investigate a set of competencies that are important for superior performance across three top levels of management in the provincial government executive offices.Design/methodology/approachUsing the case of the West Java Province Government, Indonesia, a qualitative approach with document analysis and behavioural event interview techniques were employed. The results were confirmed using focus group discussions. The Mann–Whitney U test was also conducted to further analyse the results.FindingsThe authors found 19 competencies grouped into five competency clusters: managing personal, managing task, managing work unit, managing socio-cultural and functional aspects. The Mann–Whitney U test results showed that managing work unit and socio-cultural aspects were more important for upper-level management, while functional aspects were more necessary for lower and middle levels of management. Two competencies, that is, achievement orientation and innovation, were the main characteristics of superior performers across all management levels, differentiating them from average performers.Practical implicationsThe study suggests the need for the Government of Indonesia to improve the current competency model. Its implications on educational and training institutions are discussed.Originality/valueThis study considered three different levels of management, grouped into superior and average performers and thematically analysed their past experiences when performing their jobs. It thus extends previous competency studies that mostly focus on a particular management level and individuals' perceptions.

Developing a Personal Leadership Competency Model for Safety Managers: A Systems Thinking Approach.

The roles of all levels of management in influencing safety, particularly in a complex work environment, are crucial. Therefore, safety managers need to develop leadership competencies (i.e., effectiveness in terms of person-oriented behaviours) to reinforce their influencing capabilities through their safety responsibilities. However, practising leadership behaviours without considering how and when these behaviours should be executed is not enough. Therefore, this paper develops a personal leadership competency model by adopting the Systems Thinking approach. The model was developed by conducting exploratory factor analysis and confirmatory factor analysis of three behavioural leadership competencies (emotional, social and cognitive) selected to fulfil the holistic view of Systems Thinking. Data were collected via self-administered questionnaire surveys. A total of 180 valid responses were received from construction managers responsible for overseeing site safety. The statistical results revealed three factors belonging to emotional competency—achievement orientation and adaptability, positive outlook, and emotional self-control. Regarding social competency, four factors represented it—teamwork, organisational awareness, coach and mentor, and conflict management. Finally, cognitive competency was found to be formed by two factors—interaction recognition and pattern recognition. All nine identified factors should, in combination, help safety managers to achieve a better understanding of themselves, of others and of their worksite environments.

Examining the relationship between screen time and achievement motivation in an adolescent population

During these times of unprecedented technological advancement, digital screens and devices have become synonymous with 21st-century life. However, such prevalence comes at a price. Research has shown a multitude of mental and physical health problems linked to excessive screen time. Although the effects of screen time have been extensively studied, one area at the core of mental health among adolescents has had limited examination: motivation, which is the drive to reach personal goals or to improve oneself. The purpose of this project was to identify the association between screen habits and achievement orientation, specifically in the prolific screen-using population of adolescents, by surveying students attending a large, suburban high school in Oregon. The survey contained three sections: one involving the Ray-Lynn Achievement Orientation scale to measure motivation; another asking participants about screen habits (time spent, devices used, and activities completed); and a third asking demographics questions. In total, 217 responses were collected. Using linear multiple regression, both average screen time—excluding work/school-related tasks—and entertainment-oriented screen time were found to be associated with lower achievement orientation. Average smartphone, television, and social media time were found to be smaller predictors of lower achievement motivation. Additionally, the results showed that all significant screen habits had negative associations with achievement motivation for adolescents. Sexual orientation was found to be a significant covariate in the models. Sources of error include the small sample size and the lack of equal grade-level representation. Further research could include experimentally manipulating participants’ screen time to evaluate a causal relationship.

Entrepreneurial Orientation and Firm Innovativeness: A Study of Selected Fast Food Restaurants in Nigeria

УСТАНОВКИ УЧИТЕЛЕЙ К ОБРАЗОВАТЕЛЬНОМУ ПРОЦЕССУ И ИХ ПРЕДСТАВЛЕНИЯ О ШКОЛЕ КАК ФАКТОРЫ ПСИХОЛОГИЧЕСКОЙ БЕЗОПАСНОСТИ

The problem of psychological safety in the modern school is highly relevant at the moment, but a broad interpretation of this category requires specification. The article sets the task of identifying teachers’ attitudes towards interaction with students and teachers’ ideas about the school as a whole. This research task allows us to address the issue of psychological aspects of the safety of the educational environment from a new angle. The study is exploratory in nature. The respondents were 77 secondary school teachers with an average teaching experience of 24.2 years. The results showed that the respondents, first of all, are unanimous in their ideas about the school as an important institution of education and upbringing, with a high goal and achievement orientation, formalization and structure. Teachers are focused on maintaining a favorable climate in the children’s environment, removing conflict, supporting psychological comfort, supporting children in their endeavors and self-expression. However, the emotional side of the relationship does not occupy a dominant position, although empathy for students, trust in communicating with them, is recognized as an important component of creating a friendly atmosphere.

Психологические предикторы раннего обращения к врачу женщин с первичным люминальным раком молочной железы

Introduction. One of the most common localizations where there is a connection between early diagnosis, timely treatment and a successful outcome of a disease is breast cancer. The behavior of a woman is associated with whether she is seeking medical help earlier or later, this now is for the first time determined, among other things, by a number of psychological characteristics of her personality. These can be cognitive beliefs included in her picture of the world, locus of control, resilience, and life orientation. The aim of this study is to identify a set of psychological predictive markers that determine the moment of initial medical treatment (early or late stages of the disease) of women with primary luminal breast cancer. Materials and methods. Survey methods were used as research methods: World assumptions scale R. Janoff-Bulman (by M.A. Padun, A.V. Kotelnikova), locus of control scale J.B. Rotter (by E.F. Bazhin, E.A. Golynkina, L.M. Etkind), Life Orientation Test M.F. Scheier, C.S. Carver (by Tsiring D.A., Evnina K.Yu.), Hardiness Survey S. Maddi (by D. Leontiev), methods of mathematical statistics: methods of descriptive statistics, univariate analysis of variance, discriminant analysis. The study involved 138 women with breast cancer in the I-III stages of the disease, who for the first time sought professional medical help. Results. The study of the psychological characteristics of women with breast cancer who first consulted a doctor at various stages of the disease revealed a set of predictive markers that contribute to seeking medical help earlier or later. Women who were diagnosed with cancer at stage I of the disease (early treatment) were characterized by: in comparison with the others, low assessment of their own significance and value, low indicators of life orientation (dispositional pessimism). Whereas in women who applied at stage III of the disease (late treatment), to a lesser extent compared to others, their belief of control in general manifested, however, in situations of achievement and professional relations, the locus of control of these women is internal. Also, for women who applied at The study was funded by Russian Science Foundation, project number 19-18-00426. the third stage of the disease, the indicators of engagement and resilience are lower than for women who applied at the early stages. Analysis of the psychological variables that differentiate women according to the stages of primary treatment showed that resilience, internality in the field of their achievement and life orientation affect the behavior of women associated with the initial visit to the doctor.

“O olho do treinador”: indicadores psicológicos e táticos discriminam o potencial esportivo de jovens futebolistas

Abstract Coaches’ subjective evaluations are predominantly responsible for talent identification and selection in soccer; therefore, systematizing the "coach's eye" can optimize this process. Our objective was to compare tactical skills, perceived competence, and sport achievement orientation of young soccer players classified as having high or low sporting potential, according to their coaches’ opinion. 101 Brazilian U15 soccer players (14.6 ± 0.7 years; practice time: 7.6 ± 2.6 years) participated in the study. Questionnaires were used to assess their tactical knowledge (TACSIS – Tactical Skills Inventory for Sports), sport orientation (SOQ - Sport Orientation Questionnaire), and perceived competence. Compared with the low-potential soccer players (n = 57), the high-potential soccer players (n = 44) showed higher positioning and deciding skills (4.52 ± 0.73 vs. 4.18 ± 0.63; p = 0.02; d = 0.50), knowledge about others (4.25 ± 0.96 vs. 3.81 ± 0.83; p = 0.02; d = 0.49), and sum of tactical skills (4.43 ± 0.72 vs. 4.14 ± 0.65; p = 0.04; d = 0.46) In turn, high-potential athletes showed higher competitiveness (4.76 ± 0.27 vs. 4.55 ± 0.33; p = 0.01; d = 0.72) and greater perceived competence (7.79 ± 1.32 vs. 7.12 ± 1.13; p = 0.01; d = 0.54), respectively. We concluded that the U15 soccer players evaluated by their coaches as having high sporting potential presented better results in indicators of tactical skills, motivation, and perceived competence than their low-potential peers.

The Relationship between Motivational Persistence, Self-Directed Learning Readiness and Achievement Goal Orientations of Medical Students

Aim: Nowadays educators are expected to be learners' companions and to guide directing learning successfully. Moreover, learners are expected to be individuals who can direct their own learning, be a stakeholder in their education, have a say in their own education, and understand their learning needs realistically. In this context, the features of learners such as orientation to academic success, motivation, and self-directed learning come to the fore. The driving force and starting point of this research is to determine students' motivational persistence levels, self-directed learning readiness levels and success orientations, and to examine the relationships between them.Methods This research is designed with descriptive method along with relational method. 780 students from Çanakkale Onsekiz Mart University Faculty of Medicine, from Term I to Term VI joined the study. The data were obtained with the "Motivational Determination", "2X2 Achievement Orientations" and "Readiness for Self-directed Learning" scales. In the analysis of the data, correlation analysis was used in addition to descriptive statistics.Results: Medical students were mostly goal-oriented while their performance orientation was relatively low. Medical students’ motivational stability level is moderate. Medical students’ self-directed learning readiness level is relatively high. Medical students’ success orientation, motivational stability and self-directed learning readiness are positively and significantly related to each other. Medical students’ approach learning, avoidance learning, performance avoidance, revision of the goals which have not been achieved, willingness to learn, and self-control differ according to the period they study. Medical students’ performance approach, pursuing long-term goals, pursuing current goals and self-direction did not differ according to the period they study.Conclusion: The results of the study showed that medical school students have a learning-oriented goal orientation rather than a performance goal orientation. In period VI, the level of motivational stability is lower than in other periods. Similarly, the highest self-directed learning readiness of students is in Term III and the lowest in Term VI. The characteristics that show a high level of positive correlation with the learning approach are willingness to learn and self-control. Performance approach is the trait that is highly positively correlated with learning avoidance achievement orientation. Performance avoidance achievement orientation and performance approach orientation show a high correlation. Characteristics that are highly positively associated with pursuing long-term goals are pursuing current goals, repeating unachieved goals, self-management, and a willingness to learn. Characteristics that are highly positively associated with pursuing current goals are repetition of unattained goals, self-management, willingness to learn, and self-control. Self-management and willingness to learn and self-control have a high positive relationship. The desire to learn and self-control are in a highly positive relationship. Research findings showed similarities with the literature as well as different aspects.

KAJIAN KEBIJAKAN PEMBANGUNAN DAN PENGEMBANGAN PARIWISATA PERIODE 2017-2025 DI KECAMATAN KUTA UTARA, KABUPATEN BADUNG

The North Kuta District is a strategic area which is located in the suburb of Denpasar City and also borders South Kuta. Since 2011, North Kuta District has been planned as part of the urban development area of Sarbagita, which is a national strategic area in Bali island. The utilization of space in the North Kuta District has developed quite rapidly. This study uses documentary research methods with content analysis techniques in the form of official government documents in the form of Regional Regulations concerning the Master Plan for Tourism Development in Badung Regency (RIPPARKAB) and Regional Spatial Planning (RTRW) at the Badung Regency level. The result shows that The tourism development policy in North Kuta District has become a guide for stakeholders, starting from the government, private sector, and society. However, the orientation of tourism development achievement is determined only from the economic growth side. In terms of quantity, tourism is seen from the increasing number of tourist visits both foreign or domestic tourists. The quality depends on the length of stay of tourists and the number of tourist expenses. It was also found that there were obstacles in the regional regulations regarding RDTR, where for the Badung Regency only South Kuta District had been promulgated a regional regulation. North Kuta District is one of the other five sub-districts where there is no clarity regarding the RDTR. The government can immediately finalize the RDTR regulation so that implementation in North Kuta District can be following the plan.

Penentuan Penerimaan Karyawan Menggunakan Metode Simple Additive Weighting dan Weight Product

Recruitment errors influence in a decrease of quality, performance, and company revenue. One of the causes is the absence of a method that is applied as a systematically of information system in determining the acceptance of the best prospective employees. This study uses the Simple Additive Weighting (SAW) and Weight Product (WP) methods to build an objective, fast, and accurate of Decision Support System (DSS) in determining employee acceptance. This research case study was applied to the Indonesian Market Traders Cooperative (KOPPI) Sorong City, West Papua Province by involving a number of 10 alternative applicants. This study aims to produce an objective information system and provide convenience in determining the best employees, referring to the determination of 9 criteria obtained from interviews, namely education, work experience, motivation, intrapersonal ability, achievement orientation, sales ability, self-confidence, trustworthy, and work ethic by weighting each. SAW and WP methods are both used to determine the best ranking of all alternative applicants and get the best prospective employees. The information system was built using the Waterfall development method with the PHP programming language and Mysql database. Based on the results of research that has been carried out, it is found that the information system built has 100% conformity of functionality and compatibility between manual and application system. Both methods provide the same highest alternative to be used as the determination of the best employee acceptance, however it is found that the WP method provides better accuracy and validity than SAW.
