Identity of personality and specificity of its self-presentation in virtual communicative space

The purpose of the article is to reveal the features of constructing a personal identity in a virtual environment. Methodology. The choice of research methods is determined by the purpose of the article and the subject of research, in particular, general scientific and empirical techniques are used, based on a systematic approach to the analysis of works on the problems of interpretation of virtual identity. The scientific novelty of the obtained research results lies in the correlation of the essence of the concepts "real identity" and "virtual identity", identifying the features and risks of the formation of the latter. The article highlights the factors of human construction of a "virtual" identity, which often occurs due to dissatisfaction of the individual with his real identity. It is emphasized that virtual reality provides ample opportunities for self-expression and disclosure of personal potential, but the desire to always "be online" affects the physical health of the user, thereby increasing his anxiety, leads to fatigue and irritability, exacerbation of hyperdynamic. The problem of excessive immersion in cyberspace has been identified: by abusing being in it, an unformed personality can lose life landmarks, assimilate programmed solutions and ready-made mental stamps. Conclusions. In social networks, a person can easily create an ideal image of himself, which is less authentic than the real one, because it reflects the individual's idea of an invented, ideal set of their own qualities, which are completed with ready visual, textual and audio network tools. Social "slowing down" in the Internet environment significantly reduces the moral level of communication in social networks and messengers. Even today, the level of trust among young people in semi-anonymous messages on the Internet is higher than in traditional sources of information. At the same time, the unsystematic acquisition of knowledge in this way does not allow young people to form an established picture of the world, leaving it largely fragmented.

Research Paradigm as a Value Guideline for Professional Training of Future Social Workers

The need for R&D of social workers was due to the development of theoretical and methodological approaches and concepts of social work, the application of which involved the use of specific research tools. It is substantiated that the research subsystem of social work can be represented in the form of a model of the research environment, which reflects the relationship of three components: the social problem, methods of its research and tools for solving. The dialectical nature of social work, as well as the dynamic conditions in which it is carried out, determine a set of socio-economic, managerial and pedagogical factors that actualize the need for research in the social field. It is substantiated that R&D today is an integral element of professional social practice and is implemented both in the process of working with different categories of clients and in administrative and managerial activities. R&D provides adequate social order development of targeted comprehensive programs, projects and technologies of social protection, design and implementation of models of social institutions and services. As a result of a comprehensive study of the problem, the essential characteristics of R&D were clarified, which means the activity of obtaining new scientifically based knowledge aimed at purposeful change of social reality, which is realized in a logical sequence through the use of appropriate forms and methods of scientific knowledge. It is proved that R&D in the system of social work is realized at three levels (reflexive-theoretical, experimental-theoretical and research), each of which involves step-by-step actions (problem definition; hypothesis formulation, choice of research methods and tools; implementation of research plan; evaluation of results) and the use of appropriate research methods.

Star architecture and urban transformation: introduction to the special issue

ABSTRACT For nearly as long as there have been urban centres, exceptional architecture projects have contributed to transforming city form and city fortunes. In this special issue of ‘European Planning Studies’, we focus on star architecture and its ability to contribute to urban transformation, with articles on the phenomenon of star architecture from a range of disciplines. Star architecture is a topic where concerns about place, identity, economy, innovation and communication intersect. In this introduction to the special issue, we overview how star architecture participates in urban transformations, and address how research into star architecture connects to ideas of identity and branding, the media, the economy, urban governance and architecture itself. We also overview methodologies for studying star architecture and urban transformation: the choice of research methods and research approach affects the problematization and the types of research questions that can be answered. Studying star architecture offers insight into disparate fields including network analysis, media studies, geography, planning, cultural economy, identity, branding and spectacle. By looking beyond economic effects, researchers can expand the audience for studies of star architecture, and more fully understand its role in urban transformation.

The purpose of the article is to highlight the virtual reality technologies that are already used to modernize the education system, to review and determine the relevance of existing augmented and virtual reality applications used in the modern educational process. The choice of research methods is determined by the purpose of the article and the subject of research, in particular, a systematic approach to the analysis of works on virtualization of education, general scientific and empirical techniques based on a systematic approach, and general research methods such as generalization and comparison. The scientific novelty of the obtained results lies in the review of VR-systems and applications used today in the educational process, in particular in Ukraine, focusing on the problems and prospects for their further use for educational purposes. The article describes the possibilities and advantages of using virtual reality technologies in modern education. It is noted that today there are already several thousand different applications for the use of virtual reality in education, and their number is increasing daily – in the European market alone there are more than 300 companies engaged in the development of these technologies. Thanks to new challenges and virtual reality technologies, the education sector is on the threshold of a new stage of technological and effective development. New curricula will appear in the near future, and virtual reality technology will be improved and implemented in an increasing number of educational processes. It is emphasized that a significant prerequisite for the development of the education sector is the intensive spread of virtual reality technologies, while the development of VR programs is still expensive and time-consuming, labour-intensive, and not all learning materials can be transferred to VR. Effective use of VR-technologies requires a significant change in curricula at the state level, so the introduction of VR-technologies in the education sector is at the level of experiments.

Двойственное значение доверия в теории социального капитала

Relevance. Considering the integral part that trust plays in the theory of social capital itself as well as in its network refraction, it is important to determine the functional content of the studied category. Further theoretical detailing and ways of applying theory to the study of social objects depend on the interpretation of trust. It can be either an element of content or a source of social capital. The purpose of the study is to identify the reasons for the duality of understanding of trust in relation to social capital and to establish the boundaries of the semantic demarcation of the concept under discussion. Objectives: identify the features that allow us to consider trust as an element of social capital in a network social organization; to reveal the grounds on which trust is ranked as a source of social capital in the network approach; define a role in establishing everyday order; to make the question of the importance of the researcher in the organization of the semantic boundaries of the studied phenomenon relevant. Methodology. In addition to the theory of social capital, the research is based on the achievements of the network and informational approaches. Theoretical and methodological approaches correlate with each other and determine the choice of research methods. Key words: methods of socio-philosophical analysis necessary to achieve an assessment of the role of social capital in the context of interaction and the method of identifying determinant factors (the method of causality), which affects network activity and forms social capital. The research results made it possible to reveal the foundations of the trust interpretations that have developed in the theory of social capital. The characteristics of trust are revealed, which make it possible to classify it as a component of social capital. The features that relate it to conditions contributing to the origins and development of social capital have been determined. Conclusion. By focusing on certain aspects of trust, the researcher identifies its functions, hence diving into a certain semantic connotation of the phenomenon under study.

Theoretical Approaches to the Essence of the Concept of ‘Methodology’ in Modern Jurisprudence

The article investigates theoretical approaches to the essence of the concept of ‘methodology’ in modern jurisprudence based on the analysis of the views of domestic and foreign scientific researchers. It is proposed under the methodology to understand the set of methods, means, principles and procedures of scientific research, used in the process of scientific knowledge of a particular problem, with the help of which the researcher substantiates the phenomenon under investigation. It is determined that the development of modern legal science requires a well-formed research methodology, since the term ‘methodology’ is often changed with the term ‘methods/ technique’. It is established that there are different and not always unambiguous interpretations of the concept of methodology in the modern world and they are provoked by the rapid globalization development of society, the introduction of new information resources, digitalization, etc. The basic categories on which the methodology is based, which is endowed with a certain apparatus of research, which include: methods and ways of organizing scientific research; principles and forms of organization of scientific research; techniques and procedures of scientific research. It is substantiated that all the components of scientific research constitute the foundation of methodological apparatus and collectively make up a certain tool for the knowledge of the phenomena and processes under study. The significance and difference of the concepts of ‘scientific method’ and ‘method of science’ have been considered and the main requirements for these concepts have been characterized. It is determined that the right choice of research methods will lead the scientist to deep and verified results, provided that these methods will be used together with another elements of scientific research in order to solve certain problems. It was revealed that there are a considerable number of methods, the unity and interrelation of which form the specificity and integrity of the cognitive activity in science, the determining of which are general scientific, theoretical, experimental and specific. The key principles on which the methodology of scientific research should be formed are specified, i.e. the principle of consistency, the principle of development, the principle of unity of theory and practice, the principle of objectivity, the principle of abstraction, the principle of decomposition. The main functions the methodology is based on are characterized. It is defined that modern scientific research is impossible without a clearly formed methodology, which should have a systemic nature in scientific research and be carried out in certain logical sequences.

Research Handbook on Comparative Corporate Governance: Introduction

This chapter introduces the Research Handbook on Comparative Corporate Governance and surveys several of the central themes addressed in the book. Most corporate governance research deals with the interaction between board members, officers, and shareholders, primarily in large, publicly traded corporations. Considerable volumes of literature thus are preoccupied with reducing conflicts of interest between shareholders and management, and consequently minimizing agency cost, thus vindicating the narrow finance perspective. Given the predominance of controlling shareholders around the globe, the literature increasingly focuses acutely on conflicts between controlling and minority shareholders. In a comparative or international context, research also often addresses all groups whose interests are affected by corporate activities and who have some degree of influence on corporations, such as creditors and employees. The book attempts to take a broad perspective. It deals with interactions between boards and shareholders, as well as minority and controlling shareholders. We cover legal duties and their enforcement, as well as the balance of powers generated by the institutional setup. Nevertheless, the interests of other “stakeholders” are very much present. The authors also explore corporate purpose, including short-termism, corporate social responsibility (CSR) and environmental, social and governance (ESG) issues. In addition, the book tackles key debates in the field, including the significance of legal origins for the development of corporate law, convergence in corporate governance, and the appropriate choice of research methods in comparative corporate governance scholarship.

The Interdisciplinary methodological Trends in the Ukrainian Musical Regionalism

Relevance of research. The Ukrainian musical regionalism, as a branch of Ukrainian musicology, is a relatively young but independent field that is actively developing in the methodological plane and continues to arouse interest of scientists in the structure and types of common methods, the effectiveness of research methods, of trends and directions of methodology. In studies of the methodological specifics of the Ukrainian musical regionalism, the issue of integrative interdisciplinary methodological intentions has not been systematically considered. The relevance of his deeper research is stated.Main objective of the study. The purpose of the article is to identify the integrative methodological intentions of the Ukrainian music region at the levels of approaches, principles and interrelation of methods in modern musicological research.The research methods. The choice of research methods is due to the interdisciplinary specifics of the material of regional music research, namely the pronounced tendency to integrate approaches, principles, methods of different sciences. Leading in the work are methods of classification, analysis, comparison, which allows classifying an array of studies into groups based on the objectsubject sphere of regional material, to identify the specifics of integration trends in each group, to generalize the structure of methodology of Ukrainian musical regionalism.Results and conclusions. Based on the analysis of the array of musicological regional researches, according to the criterion of their object-subject spheres, groups of works with integration methodological intentions are revealed. Researchers of the problem of musical space are focused on the methodology of modern historical and theoretical musicology. Methodological integration in the group of studies of the problem of musical life of the regions is characterized by a decisive influence on the musicological methodology of research of archival documentation and source studies in order to involve archival materials and sources in the scientific circulation. A number of researchers focus on the systemic phenomenon of music culture and its varieties, which encourages the application of a multidisciplinary methodology aimed at studying its components. A systematic approach to regional musical processes dominates the study of the musical environment.The works of historical and theoretical orientation enrich regional musical genreology and regional musical style studies with dominance in the group of methods of historical and theoretical musicology. The mosaic of aspects of research of folklore genres (system-typological, ethnomusicological, ethnosociological, geographical, culturogenetic, contextual, historical) is accompanied by interdisciplinary approaches with dominance of theoretical and applied methods of musical folklore.The vast majority of investigations on regional musical performance cover a broad historical and cultural context, address issues of creative interaction, the specifics of performance, the formation and functioning of pedagogical traditions. The number of studies of regional institutions with the dominance of the institutional approach and a set of interdisciplinary methods is noticeably growing. Based on interdisciplinary methodological algorithms, the experience of scientific interpretation of the diversity of creative personality and its role in the region is presented.The levels of methodology of the Ukrainian musical regionalism (theoretical, empirical, philosophical, general scientific, concrete scientific) are defined and characterized. It is proved that at its general scientific level the approaches, principles and methods of culturology, history, archival documentation, source studies, geography, anthropology, sociology and other sciences are widespread.

Sound as a Style Somponent of Art Rock: Formation Ways and Factors

Relevance of research. Recent studies of rock music by representatives of academic musicology are more and more often devoted to matters of style. An important component of rock stylistics is sound that is first of all related to timbre coloristic and texture characteristics of sounding. It is the sound that highlights the creative individuality of rock musicians and becomes a key to support rock bands awareness. Sound obtains a special value in the creative practice of art rock (including progressive rock) that is an intersection of rock and academic music. This is why the studies of sound formation factors are important, both merely artistic and those beyond artistic.Main objective of the study. The purpose of the article is through the example of creative work of rock bands that are the main art rock representatives (“Genesis”, “Gentle Giant”, “King Crimson”, “Pink Floyd”, “Yes”) define the ways and different in nature factors of sound formation process. The research methods. The choice of research methods is determined by specificity of material, namely by the fact that the musical notation of the music being analyzed is not available. The main in the study is the comparative method that allows us to clarify common displays and difference in sound formation or art rock bands, as well as respectively modified intonational analysis methods.Results and conclusions. Sound arises as a style category that defines individual character of sounding. The creative practice of rock music typically involves unity of the author(s) of the music and the performer(s), therefore rock music is considered as a result of combination of the composer’s and the performer’s intentions in the artistic communication. The ensemble specificity of rock bands requires special attention to the nature of relation of vocal and instrumental components and the analysis of their importance in the sound formation of one or another band. Consideration of sound in the context of timbre and timbre formation allowed to state the spread in the practice of art rock of trends that previously formed in the field of academic music of the 20th century: significant expansion of instruments, use of noise and specific sounds, rethinking the possibilities of various instruments, experiments with musical texture.A special role of music producers, arrangers and sound directors in the sound formation has been noted. It is emphasized that the search for new sounds stimulated the design of fundamentally new electromechanical (such as Mellotron) and electronic instruments. It is shown with the example of specific groups that the formation of sound in art rock is often the result of inter-genre and stylistic synthesis, when distant genre-style layers become material for textural, dynamic, agogical experiments. It is claimed that further research into the sound will provide an opportunity to get closer to understanding the mechanisms of style formation in rock music.

The article describes the main functions of the presented intelligent system, which expand the possibility of assessing the variability of climate characteristics by combining quantitative and qualitative information in the form of historical and archival evidence. The main functions of the system include the generation of event flows; estimation of the event probability; physical reconstruction of data using geoinformation systems; determination of the period between two rare events; and management of agricultural production under risk conditions. Conclusion . The advantage of the proposed system consists in increasing information about extreme events and improving the management efficiency by means of reducing risks.

Psycholinguistic features of expression of basic emotions in adolescents with intellectual disabilities: gender aspect

Objective. The main purpose of the study was to determine the specifics of emotion perception and psycholinguistic features of the expression of basic emotions in adolescent boys and girls with intellectual disabilities. The scientific analysis focused on such aspects as speech style, activity, and passivity in the use of certain parts of speech, intonation, use of epithets and comparisons, creation of synonymous series, use of certain types of sentences, their construction, communication style, etc. in the context of expressing emotional states. feelings, experiences of adolescents.
 Materials & Methods. The ambiguity and lack of research on the problems of psycholinguistic aspects of the expression of basic emotions by boys and girls, in general, the complexity of psychodiagnostics of the emotional sphere of adolescents with intellectual disabilities led to the choice of research method: psychodiagnostic (projective method «Testing the ability to recognize emotions based on pantomime masks of the human face» (adaptation by M. Lebedeva), observation, interview with subsequent analysis of protocols, conversations (individual, group).
 Results. The main attention in the diagnostic process was focused on such important qualitative characteristics as recognition, differentiation and verbalization of emotions by adolescents. According to the results of the scientific analysis, the peculiarities of the perception of basic emotions by adolescents with intellectual disabilities were established. The main ones are described psycholinguistic accents of expression of emotions by the studied teenagers. Gender features of perception and expression of emotions by adolescents with intellectual disabilities during communicative activity are outlined.
 Conclusions. Gender features of emotion expression are more clearly outlined than differences in the emotions experienced by adolescent boys and adolescent girls with intellectual disabilities. Different is the «quality» of expression of emotions, feelings, experiences, not their «essence». In the process of communication and psychodiagnostics, rather low rates of differentiation of basic emotions, inconsistency of the correlation of emotions to the corresponding domain (distortion of the polarity of emotions) were stated. This indicates a lack of functions of understanding, differentiation, verbalization, and control of emotions in adolescents with intellectual disabilities. Misinterpretations of emotions can be attributed to the lack of skills of «speaking» feelings to adolescents, low level of attention to the psychological education of boys and girls, lack of psychological support or psychological support, and so on. From this, adolescents need additional measures, help to learn to control their own emotions, to understand the states, attitudes of people around them and situations.

Modern Methods of Marketing Researches of Ecological Needs of Population in the Region

The economic damage from environmental pollution is significant; therefore, environmental protection has become an urgent problem in recent decades. The greening of the economy, the growing needs of a socio-biological nature form an environmental orientation of the interests of consumers, more and more people are aware of the importance of preserving the environment.
