Adequate Self-esteem Research Articles

Chapter 6. Influence of self-esteem of students of vocational education on their academic performance and level of aspirations

Self-esteem refers to the core of a young man's personality and significantly affects his behavior. Therefore, the purpose of the research is the theoretical substantiation and experimental study of the relationship between self-esteem, academic success and the level of demands of vocational (vocational and technical) students of the Mykolaiv Vocational Industrial Lyceum. The tasks of the research included: theoretical analysis of the literature on the problem of studying the relationship between the level of harassment, academic performance and self-esteem in youth; an experimental study of the relationship between self-esteem, academic success and the level of demands of education seekers. Among the studied students of the Mykolaiv Vocational Industrial Lyceum, 17-year-old girls with an average level of academic success prevail. In order to study their self-esteem, we used the methods "Research of adolescent self-esteem" (G. Kazantseva) and "Research of self-esteem (Dembo-Rubinshtein modified by M. Parafiyan). Education seekers with adequate self-esteem predominate (60 %), there are significantly fewer people with overestimated (22 %) and underestimated self-esteem (18 %). Individuals with high and medium levels of harassment and self-esteem prevailed among the studied education seekers. By age, level of academic success, self-esteem and level of harassment, no significant differences between boys and girls were found. According to the level of success among boys and girls, those with an average level of education and adequate self-esteem prevail. According to age, gender, self-esteem and level of harassment, no significant differences were found between students of different levels of academic success. According to the level of self-esteem, individuals with adequate self-esteem prevail among students with average and sufficient levels of success. Achievers who study better have a higher level of harassment and self-esteem. By age and sex, we did not find any significant differences between students with different self-esteem: boys predominate among students with adequate self-esteem, while girls predominate among those with inadequate (overestimated or underestimated) self-esteem. According to the level of academic success, individuals with an average level of self-esteem predominate among students with adequate and low self-esteem, that is, students with high self-esteem study worse, and vice versa. The analysis of the levels of harassment of self-esteem of education seekers (Dembo-Rubinstein method) with different self-esteem (the methodology of G. Kazantseva) shows that there are no significant differences between them on all scales, but those with low self-esteem have the highest level of harassment, and those with high self-esteem have a slightly lower self-esteem higher than in other categories.

Empirical Research on Studying Psychological Conditions of the Formation of Adaptive Relationships between Parents and Children of Senior School Age

The purpose of this article is to describe psychological conditions of the for­mation of adaptive relationships between parents and children of senior school age. Methods of the research. The following theoretical methods of the research were used to solve the tasks formulated in the article: a categorical method, structural and functional methods, the methods of the analysis, systematization, modeling and generalization. The empirical method is a confirmatory research. The results of the research. We believe that adults should create the most positive conditions for the harmonious mental development of the personality of senior school pupils. Parents should understand that the child’s point of view and dignity should be respected, because this will facilitate the formation of a high or adequate self-esteem of the child. Senior school pupils should definitely be given useful advice, set a positive example, because all this will contribute to the formation of their personal and social maturity. Conclusions. Both parents and children should be patient with each other, be kind to each other, love each other in all situations, talk to each other. In this difficult period, the period of children’s growing up, everyone in the family has to perceive the people around them in a completely different way, relate to each other and to the surrounding world. The personally meaningful experience acquired by children is useful. The latter greatly helps senior school pupils to overcome conflicts, depression, not to fall into pessimism and take responsibility for their actions, to draw positively labeled conclusions from all events that will help overcome new life problems. Thus, a personally meaningful experience is formed taking into account certain psychological and social conditions that take place in the life space of senior school pupils in different periods of their life and personal development.

Psychological features of the development of adolescent resilience

The article presents the results of both theoretical analysis and empirical research of the psychological features of the development of adolescent resilience. It has been established that resilience is a dynamic phenomenon that plays a key role in a person's ability to effectively cope with stress, life challenges, maintain mental health and ensure personal development. The close connection of resilience with the concept of post-traumatic growth is emphasized thus revealing the individual's potential for positive transformation and enrichment of internal resources after experiencing a traumatic experience. Two main approaches to the essence of resilience are defined. It was found that resilience has a multifactorial nature and depends on interacting individual, family and social factors. Resilience is analyzed as a leading personal trait that determines the success of adolescents' adaptation to life under martial law. The key characteristics of adolescent resilience are: confidence in one's own abilities, adaptive personality traits at this age, positive experience in solving life's difficulties, adequate self-esteem, emotional and behavioral self-regulation, a sufficient level of intellectual development, self-organization and time planning skills, and orientation towards achieving goals. The results of the empirical research on the resilience of adolescents indicate the presence of a significant part of adolescents with average and above average levels of resilience and hadiness, activity and optimism that are important resources for effectively overcoming life's challenges. The presence of a risk group with a lower than average level of resilience, a low level of hardiness indicates the need to develop and implement psychological interventions aimed at developing adolescent resilience. The urgency of developing training programs for the development of adolescent resilience using flexible methods of influence and the latest techniques is emphasized

Use of structural psychological protection mechanisms in dealing with youth in crisis situations

Introduction. In modern conditions, adaptation to the dynamics of tension in social reality is of particular importance. One of the adaptation systems of personality is psychological protection. The optimal functioning of the complex system of psychological protection of the individual determines the effectiveness of overcoming life difficulties, preserves the positive ideas of the individual about himself, allows him to "live" problematic situations with the preservation of mental well-being. The main function of psychological defense mechanisms is to "protect" the content of consciousness from negative, traumatic experiences, ensuring the quality of psychological security of the individual. This allows, in a situation of optimal anxiety, adequate self-esteem, an adequate level of claims, to build and support the socio-psychological adaptability of the individual to the life situation. The purpose of this article is to reveal the possibilities of using constructive mechanisms of psychological protection in working with young people in crisis situations. Materials and methods. 40 students of the Armavir State Pedagogical University (Armavir, Krasnodar Territory, Russian Federation) participated in the study of the content of the protection mechanisms used. The testing was carried out using the methodology for diagnosing the structure and strength of psychological defense (developed by L. Y. Subbotina), and the methodology for diagnosing the dominant strategy of psychological defense in communication (V.V. Boyko). The results of the study. Experimental data obtained during the study showed that in the hierarchy of the high level of protection use, the projection mechanism (22.5%), then rationalization (15%), then the denial mechanism (15%) is the most common in the experimental sample of young people. At the same time, in the response variant of 40 respondents, 18 revealed such psychological protection as aggression, 12 are characterized by peacefulness, and the remaining 10 – avoidance. And when choosing strategies to overcome difficult life situations, respondents chose by importance – orientation to the goal, process and result. Conclusion. Thus, psychological protection is a multi-valued, phenomenologically complex, systemic education that determines the nature of the manifestation of personality and behavior. Therefore, in order to work out an adequate way of responding to young people in crisis situations, it is necessary to take into account the substantial mechanism of psychological defense mechanisms. During the construction of counseling and correctional work, it is possible to use activity aimed at building an adequate strategy for overcoming difficult life situations.

Emotional Well-Being of Preschoolers in Extreme Climatic and Geographical Conditions by Means of Ecological and Psychological Support

Emotional well-being of preschool children that live in extreme climatic conditions is difficult to maintain. Emotional well-being is a basis of psychological health that manifests itself as positive emotional states in social environment. It presupposes a stable emotional sphere when interacting with the world, low anxiety, emotional comfort, and adequate self-esteem. Climatic and geographical factors of the Russian Arctic may inhibit the development of the emotional well-being in preschool children. However, some psychological and pedagogical conditions may neutralize the negative impact of environmental factors. They include psycho-emotional monitoring, flexible school interior, and health-saving technologies in the academic process. The authors developed a model of ecological and psychological support for preschool children living in polar regions. It is based on interaction with plants and animals as a source of positive emotions. The model of environmental and psychological support for emotional well-being of preschoolers living in the Russian Arctic justifies the feasibility of health-saving technologies as part of an active cooperation between a preschool institution and a botanical garden.

Development of social competence of specialists of helping professions to carry out comprehensive prevention of suicidal behavior of adolescents

Introduction. The relevance of the research problem is due to the increase in maladaptive forms of adolescents' response to various kinds of crisis situations. The importance of preventing teenage suicides has increased dramatically in the context of the socio-cultural crisis of recent decades. Despite the fact that various sciences are developing and putting into practice more and more new methods and technologies for suicide prevention, alarming trends do not disappear. A real problem of training specialists of helping professions to organize complex, specifically filled activities for diagnostic, preventive, advisory, correctional and developmental work with adolescents is being formed. The purpose of this article is to consider the possibilities of supporting the activities of specialists in helping professions to work with adolescents in the prevention of suicidal behavior. Materials and methods. The study involved 133 students and 20 teachers of general education organizations (schools of the Krasnodar Territory, Russian Federation). To carry out diagnostics on the research topic, we used theoretical and empirical methods (in particular, analysis of psychological and pedagogical literature on the research problem, testing, conversation, the method of expert assessments, the method of content analysis), as well as methods of mathematical statistics. In the course of the study, we examined the manifestations of individual characteristics of self-esteem in children, the perception of loneliness, value orientations, and features of the emotional-volitional sphere. Also, within the framework of the study, we determined the content characteristics of the construction of a comprehensive work of specialists of accompanying professions with adolescents of the "risk group". The results of the study. As a result of the diagnosis of students in grades 8-9 (133 people), a "risk group" of 14 people was identified. To confirm the criteria for inclusion of adolescents in the group of suicidal risk – anxiety, frustration, a set of diagnostic techniques was used. It was determined that 43 subjects had an average or low level of anxiety, 90 respondents (67.66%) showed an increased level of anxiety. 57.14% of respondents revealed low self-esteem, while adolescents with adequate self-esteem accounted for only 34.58%. Teenagers who were assigned to the "risk group" demonstrated a fairly high level of loneliness: 7 of 14. The results of the study allowed us to identify areas in the prevention of suicidal activity of adolescent schoolchildren, for which it is necessary to prepare specialists of accompanying professions working in an educational organization. Conclusion. Based on the data of the conducted research, it is possible to note the multifactorial etiology of suicidal manifestations, which implies the need for a comprehensive psychological and pedagogical impact on all components of this phenomenon. The age peculiarity of a teenager determines the features of his suicidal behavior, which determine the specificity and uniqueness of prevention. Preventive work on suicide prevention should be built as an integral system that includes all levels of prevention, as well as a set of measures aimed at preventing repeated attempts. At the same time, the preventive activity of suicidal behavior should integrate several areas, such as: work with family, teachers, and adolescents themselves.

Роль психологічних знань у роботі логопеда з дизлалією дітей молодшого шкільного віку в час війни

The dynamism of a child’s and adult’s life, its challenges, the biggest of which are the war in Ukraine, air strikes, information from the media, which often makes it even more stressful, and other challenges emphasise the role of psychological knowledge in the work of pedagogues, including teachers – speech therapists. Studying in the junior grades of a general secondary education institution requires each child to change and adapt to new conditions, in particular to the conditions of the educational environment, which can create social stress for them even in peacetime, and even more so, in wartime. For children with dyslalia, negative experiences and impaired effective communication due to speech disorders are added to this. In this regard, and in order to find out exactly which structures of the child’s personality require the application of psychological knowledge in the speech therapist’s work with dyslalia of primary school children during the war, an empirical study was conducted. The study was conducted within the framework of dual education at the Department of Special Education of the Ivan Franko National University of Lviv. It was empirically substantiated that to reduce the negative effects of social stress in a child with dyslalia, it is necessary to promote the development of self-control and the formation of stress resistance skills, while children without speech disorders need to develop and optimize, first of all, effective communication. For the speech therapist’s work to be effective during the war, it is necessary to take into account the social stress experienced by students of primary school age. Pedagogical experts should take into account that all children of primary school age should reduce general anxiety at school, frustration in achieving success, overcome fears of self-expression, testing knowledge, and fear of not meeting adults’ expectations, in order to successfully manage social stress. At the same time, it is necessary to promote the formation and development of adequate self-esteem in children, both in general and in its individual components; the development and formation of new personality traits of a child with dyslalia, in particular, expanding the scope of knowledge and increasing children’s intelligence; the development of sociability, social courage, stress resistance, emotional balance, openness; children’s mastery of self-regulation methods; reducing the level of school fears and general anxiety. Also, the teacher-speech therapist should contribute to the implementation of psychological education of parents, optimization and correction of their children’s upbringing, individual approach when applying sanctions or punishments, promote the development of their sense of duty, sympathy, and love for the child, the need to realize themselves and ‘find continuance’ in children. In the pedagogical environment, the teacher-speech therapist should create and develop a favourable business and constructive psychological atmosphere, when all children feel safe and in comprehensive well-being. Keywords: dyslalia, stress, social stress, work of a teacher - speech therapist, psychological knowledge, primary school students, war.

On the formation of foreign language written communicative competence of students of language specialties based on a methodological system using social network services

This article presents a methodological system developed by the authors for forming foreign-language written communicative competence of students of language specialties based on social services. In the methodology of foreign language education, there is a tendency to an increasing role of written speech due to the socioeconomic needs of modern society. The formation and development of the ability to create written statements in a foreign language remain problematic tasks at all levels of foreign language teaching. Modernization of education affects the expansion of educational technologies and electronic learning tools. Modern information and communication technologies provide additional opportunities for students to move to a more advanced level of formation of foreign-language written communicative competence, which is understood as the ability to carry out foreign-language written speech activity with the help of a complex of linguistic knowledge and speech skills and abilities to create a foreign-language written text in accordance with the communicative situation. Social network services Instagram, Twitter, and others, which allow users to transmit written messages, have a number of didactic properties and methodological functions with the possibility of their use in the foreign language educational process. The authors describe the main components of the methodological system, the methodological conditions for the formation of a foreign written communicative competence, the conducted experiment, and its results. The analysis of experimental teaching confirms the positive dynamics of indicators of the degree of formation of foreign-language written communicative competence of students of language specialties in all aspects: possession of methods of constructing a foreign-language written statement adequately to the language situation, the formation of socio-cultural, sociolinguistic, linguistic competencies, high motivation, and adequate self-esteem.

Investigation of the influence of the locus of control, self-esteem and self-esteem on the behavior of students

The purpose of our study is to study the infl uence of locus control on the behavior of students of railway technical schools and to study the possible intermediary role of self-esteem and self-esteem of students. A total of 220 fi rst-year students and 210 fourth-year students completed the USC personality questionnaire, the Rosenberg Self-esteem Self-esteem scale, and the Coping Behavior in Stressful Situations questionnaire.The analysis showed that the external locus of control, reduced self-esteem and self-esteem suggests a violent emotional reaction to situations. At the same time, students with an internal locus of control and adequate sel f-esteem have a behavior strategy aimed at rational problem solving without being distracted by emotions. These results show that it is necessary to pay closer attention to the formation of the internal locus of control among students of railway technical schools, as this is directly related to their future professional activities.

Влияние самооценки и профессиональной деятельности сотрудника органов внутренних дел друг на друга

The study of the features of self-assessment of employees of the internal affairs bodies of the Russian Federation is of scientific interest, since for the effective performance of official duties, an employee must have a certain level of physical development, moral qualities, the ability to adapt, the ability to improve and self-development in the system of internal affairs bodies of the Russian Federation, as well as the ability to adequately assess their potential. The article analyzes and discusses the results of a study of the self-assessment of employees of the internal affairs bodies of the Russian Federation and the correlation of the types of self-assessment of employees with their professional activities. The study was conducted on the basis of the territorial bodies of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia of the Smolensk region. The respondents were 80 employees from among the middle and senior commanding staff of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia. The article shows that the success of professional activity is conditioned by high adequate self-esteem and normal self-esteem. To improve the efficiency of the service, the basis of the actions of psychologists and heads of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia aimed at achieving compliance of employees with the tasks of activity should be based on the results of psychological diagnostics of self–assessment of employees of the internal affairs bodies of the Russian Federation (hereinafter - the ATS).

Successfulness, success and self-concept of personality

The article analyzes the differentiation of typical levels of developmental functioning of teaching activity (reproductive, adaptive, local-modeling, system-modeling, competence-acting) which correlate with the degrees of academic success of students of higher education institutions (insufficient, low, average, high, super high). It has been proven that the competence-acting level of successfulness, in addition, also stimulates the development of social and personal successfulness, which in result will enable the work in a field of life’s profession and later will crystallize into a full-fledged spiritual vocation. At the same time, it is substantiated that personal successfulness as a property-trait of a person correlates with his ability to be happy, to become a significant person for others, who is able to organize the environment around him and to become a successful person at the level of individuality and the universum of self-creation. It has been highlighted the types of successfulness (academic or professional, situational, social, personal) that function interdependently with the evolutionary stages of success (individual, periodic, stable, creative) and ontogenetic levels of the Self-concept organization as a center of self-consciousness (simple, complex, stable, positive-harmonious). It is argued that the Self-concept is a systematically organized set of ideas, attitudes, thoughts, reflections, beliefs and feelings of a person about himself that arises in the process of social interaction’s deployment as a result of its psychocultural development, and is also a mental neoplasm relatively stable and at the same time malleable to internal fluctuations and changes. The heuristics of the author’s model of a positive-harmonious Self-concept has been proven, which includes four structural components – mental-cognitive (Self-image), emotion-evaluative (Self-attitude), action-creative (Self-deed), spontaneous-spiritual (Self-spiritual), which function in the structure of the innovative-psychological climate of a group or organization. Moreover, it is defined as harmonious because internally (thinking about an acceptable Self-image, self-attitude through adequate self-esteem) and externally (educational actions (Self-deed), work with psycho-spiritual forms of self-comprehending (Self-spiritual) – states of faith, truth, love etc.)) holistically regulates the relationship between the developmental functioning of the components of the personality’s Self-concept.

The influence of self-esteem on emotional burnout syndrome of law enforcement officers

The study is devoted to the level of self-esteem and its role in the emotional burnout syndrome in law enforcement officers. The purpose of the study is to evaluate the role of self-esteem in the emotional burnout syndrome among law enforcement officers and to compare the content and dynamic characteristics of respondents receiving and not receiving psychotherapeutic help. The subject of the study: the possibility of forming an adequate self-esteem of police officers through the use of psychotherapeutic correction methods. Experimental base of the study: SibUI of the Ministry of Internal Affairs (Krasnoyarsk). Experimental sample of the study: 37 police officers (trainees of the Faculty of Vocational Training), males aged 21 to 35 years. Research methods: "Diagnostics of the level of emotional burnout" V. V. Boyko, "Self-assessment test of personality" S. A. Budassi. In the course of the research, the author developed and implemented a psychotherapeutic program with elements of art therapy. Data processing was carried out using the IBM SPSS Statistics 24 program. To determine the relationship according to the methods, the correlation coefficient of C. E. Spearman was used. Statistically significant differences in self-esteem and burnout syndrome have been established. The scientific novelty of the study lies in the development of a psychotherapeutic aimed at correcting the low self-esteem of police officers with emotional burnout syndrome. The obtained research results and the developed psychotherapeutic program can form the basis of scientific and methodological recommendations for improving the training and advanced training of psychologists, medical psychologists, employees of government agencies responsible for the mental health of personnel.

FACTORS OF TRANSFORMATION OF THE SELF-CONCEPT OF PERSONALITY

The self-concept of an individual is constantly in interaction with the environment, which often has a negative impact on it. A positive self-concept is an important condition for the full functioning of an individual. A positive self-concept manifests itself through a person's positive attitude towards himself/herself, adequate self-esteem, a sense of his/her own integrity, and the desire to realize his/her potential. A person with a formed positive self-concept is characterized by stable psychological health and, in general, has a high level of psychological well-being. The self-concept of an individual faces various life challenges every day, functions in traumatic situations, is influenced by the social environment, and therefore can undergo transformations. Often, a person is not aware of these transformations, but notices that his/her life has changed for the worse - apathy, feelings of insecurity, emotional exhaustion, decreased self-esteem, etc. have appeared. These negative formations appear due to the transformation of the self-concept, therefore, the study of the factors and features of this process is necessary for the development of measures to overcome the consequences, restore harmony, and master effective strategies of behavior in specific situations. The self-concept of an individual is affected by two groups of factors - external and internal. They cause constructive and destructive transformations that lead to the formation of a positive or negative self-concept. Empirically, transformation factors were identified for two components of self-concept: emotional-evaluative and behavioral. The constructive transformation of the emotional-evaluative component of the self-concept of the individual takes place under the influence of emotional stability, dominance, courage, straightforwardness, trustworthiness, calmness and relaxation, the desire for creativity, flexibility in communication, tolerance for uncertainty, values and autonomy, constructive sexuality, constructive aggression, constructive external delimitation of the Self, constructive anxiety, satisfaction with work experience in the specialty. The constructive transformation of the behavioral component of the self-concept of the individual takes place under the influence of courage, expressiveness, trustworthiness, dominance and calmness, constructive narcissism, constructive aggression, constructive external demarcation of the self. Destructive transformation of the emotional-evaluative component of the self-concept of a person occurs under the influence of emotional stability, courage, practicality of directness, anxiety, radicalism, intolerance of uncertainty, disorientation in time, contact and autonomy, deficit aggression, destructive anxiety, constructive narcissism, deficit narcissism, constructive internal demarcation of self. The destructive transformation of the behavioral component of the self-concept of the individual occurs under the influence of radicalism, sociability, courage, emotional stability, contact, values, destructive narcissism, constructive external demarcation of the self, deficient external demarcation of the self.

Соціально-психологічні проблеми неповнолітніх з неповних сімей

The article reveals the socio-psychological problems of minors from single-parent families. It has been shown that the most common type of socially dysfunctional family is a conflict family, that is, one where family members cannot or do not know how to solve emerging problems using constructive methods. Minors raised in such families, without a positive example, also build relationships with others accordingly. Such minors are characterized by a low level of social identity, a low level of socio-psychological adaptation and distorted value orientations. That is, minors from families at risk are characterized by an imbalance of socialization components. The program for developing the socialization of at-risk minors must be aimed at developing the adolescent’s adaptive capabilities (developing the ability to understand people and social situations, a positive self-concept, reflexive skills); development of social competence (formation of adequate self-esteem, consistent with the level of aspirations; skills in mastering the emotional state, relieving emotional stress, managing means of communication, constructive interaction in various life situations); changing the value picture of the world. In parallel with classes for teenagers, classes should be held for parents aimed at developing the skills and abilities to help children develop skills that increase their level of socialization. Key words: minors, single-parent families, dysfunctional families, addictive behavior, prevention, psychocorrection.
