Oсобливості соціальної адаптації молодших школярів та дитячо-батьківських відносин

The article reveals the peculiarities of correction of the destructive psychological influence of child-parent relations on the social adaptation of minors. The psychological impact of the parent-child relationship on the individual-psychologycal, interpersonal and microsocial spheres of the personality functioning of a child of primary school age (self-esteem, social emotions, social perceptions, social motives, social status) is revealed, which determine the peculiarities of the child social adaptation. It is shown that the violation of the parental relationship affects the display of anxiety in children of primary school age and sets negative strategies for such interaction. The relationship between parent-child relationships and parental coping behavior, which acts as a mechanism for their influence on the effectiveness of social adaptation of younger schoolchildren, has been revealed. It has been determined that the indicators of social adaptation have significant differences among junior pupils with different types of attachment to parents. A scientifically based socio-psychological program for the correction of the destructive psychological impact of parent-child relationships on the social adaptation of younger schoolchildren has been developed; its efficiency has been proved. Key words: younger schoolchildren, self-esteem, social emotions, social perceptions, social motives, social status, child-parent relationships, social adaptation.

Specificity of Perception of the Life Path of Clients with Different Types of Attachment

The purpose of this article is the formation of a theoretical construct that allows us to study the specifics of perception of the life path of an individual with different types of attachment. This article presents the main attachment styles in adults and gives a brief description of them. The hypothetical assumption that clients with different types of attachment have different perceptions of their life path is discussed. Securely attached clients are more likely to see their life journey as a series of successful transitions and achievements. At that time, clients with an insecure attachment type tend to evaluate their life path as negative. The proposed construct serves as a methodological basis for the empirical study of the characteristics of perception of the life path of people with different types of attachment. The theoretical principles highlighted in the article can be used by practicing psychologists to organize psychological work with clients demonstrating different types of attachment.

FEATURES OF CHILD-PARENT ATTACHMENT IN PERSONS WITH MANIFESTED ADDICTION

The purpose of this study was the theoretical substantiation and empirical confi rmation of the features of child-parent attachment in people with addiction. The main research methods were: theoretical analysis of the literature on the research topic, psychodiagnostic method, methods of mathematical statistics. To collect data, a questionnaire was used to determine the type of attachment of M.V. Yaremchuk (2005). The study was conducted on the basis of the Krylia RC (Chelyabinsk, Russia). In the course of the work, 14 people with manifested addiction who are in rehabilitation and 10 people without a history of addiction were interviewed. In the course of the study, the types of attachment were determined in two groups, which were also divided into attachment to the mother and attachment to the father, on the basis of which they revealed diff erent types of attachment on three scales: the reli-able type, the anxious-ambivalent type and the avoidant type. Based on statistical analysis, it was found that there is a signifi cant diff erence between the two groups in the avoidant type of attachment to the mother.

An Overview of Active Electrode Materials for the Efficient High-Performance Supercapacitor Application

Recent energy research focuses on the efficiency enhancement of supercapacitor devices for multipurpose applications. Several materials have been used as electrode materials to achieve the maximum specific capacitance. The present review article concludes with three different types of materials recently used to enhance the efficiency of supercapacitors. The first type involves carbon-based materials for storage and supercapacitor applications. The carbon materials could be obtained naturally and synthesized manually based on need. The additional advantage of carbon material is these materials can be obtained from natural sources. The second type discusses the recent advances in metal oxide materials for high-performance supercapacitors. The metal oxide materials are involved in different types of attachment through the bi-tri metallic bonding, which enhances the specific capacitance. The third type involves recently advanced materials for high energy and power density application. The power and energy density of the materials is enhanced by the surface modification of the materials. In recent days, the MXene and nanocomposite materials seem to be an appropriate material to increase the power and energy density of the device. The modification and surface treatment of respective materials could enhance the specific capacitance of the material.

How do social network ties influence purchases in social commerce communities? A lens of attachment theory

PurposeThis study aims to address how to facilitate more community members making purchases in social commerce communities. The research is expected to shed new light on the underlying process by which individuals’ social networks influence their purchases in social commerce communities.Design/methodology/approachAn online survey and secondary archive data are presented to confirm all the hypotheses.FindingsCommunity members’ out-degree ties show a positive effect on their attachment to other members, as well as to the community. Community members’ attachment to the community has a positive influence on their purchases made in the e-commerce modules of social commerce communities and mediates the effect of their attachment to community members. The study establishes a theoretical framework to reveal how community members’ social networks influence their purchases in social commerce communities.Practical implicationsThe findings of this study provide new insights for managers and designers of new social commerce communities to inspire them to achieve their goal of keeping consumers making purchases in the e-commerce modules of social commerce communities.Originality/valueFirstly, this study draws on attachment theory to explain why community members make purchases in a social commerce community. Then, the study enriches the research on social network ties and attachment theory by initially integrating the social network perspective with attachment theory to examine the effects of social network ties on different types of attachment.

Self-Concept of Young People with Different Types of Attachment

The purpose of this research was to study the relationship between the Self-concept and various types of attachment in young people. The authors performed a theoretical review of available sources and established that the Self-concept and types of attachment are formed by the social environment from birth. In Russia, Self-concept studies in connection with the types of attachment are only gaining momentum. The empirical study involved a questionnaire developed by the authors. The results obtained were processed and analyzed using Excel, mathematical statistics methods, and SPSS Statistics v. 23. The correlation analysis established a two-way significant relationship in fourteen parameters between the characteristics of the Self-concept and unreliable-anxious, unreliable-avoidant, and unreliable-disorganized types of attachment. The reliable type of attachment proved to be an exception with no significant connections. Thus, three attachment types correlated with the Self-concept. The revealed interrelations confirmed the hypothesis about a relationship between the Self-concept and the type of attachment in young people. The absence of a relationship between the Self-concept and the reliable attachment type allowed the authors to outline plans for further research.

Conclusion: It can be said that different types of attachment to God have important effects on death anxiety in cancer patients and also self-compassion significantly mediates the relationship between attachment styles to God and death anxiety.

Child’s attachment to mother as a predictor of psychological well-being in primary school age

Introduction. The attachment is viewed as the base for assessment of individual adaptation variation throughout life. In the capacity of the core indicator of the person’s unison with external environment, the psychological well-being combines the different aspects of child life. The assessment of the psychological well-being is based on three indicators: evidence of life satisfaction; life quality assessment; difficulty levels of external and internal spectrum.The aim of the current publication is to investigate the influence of features of attachment to mother on psychological well-being of primary school-age children.Methodology and research methods. The methodological research framework was based on the main provisions of the attachment theory (J. Bowlby, M. Ainsworth). “Mother-Child Attachment Style Measure Questionnaire” method (Pupyreva, 2007) was employed to identify attachment features. The measure of psychological well-being was carried out by means of “Student’s Life Satisfaction Scale” (Toporkova, Slobodskaya et al., 2015), “Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory” and “Strength and Difficulties Questionnaire” (Goodman, Slobodskaya, Knyazev, 2005) methods. 178 primary school-age children (85 boys and 93 girls) aged 10 to 11 (mean age = 10.2) participated in the research.Results. The analysis of the results showed that secure attachment among children reduces life satisfaction, facilitates the behavioural disorders and psycho-emotional reactions, impacts on limitation of social contacts and life quality. Using the regression analysis, it was revealed that the quality of the correlation between attachment indicators and psychological well-being vary depending on degree of attachment security. It is demonstrated that maternal responsiveness and attentiveness is an absolute predictor of life satisfaction, physical and social well-being and life quality in the primary school-age period, irrespective of the child’s attachment types. The absence of mother-child closeness is the predictor for disruption of physical, emotional and social functioning, low level of life quality in insecure attachment in primary school-aged children.Scientific novelty. The specificity of psychological well-being of primary school-aged children with different types of attachment to their mother is determined. It is shown for the first time that characteristics of attachment are the predictors of life satisfaction, quality of life, and mental health of primary school-aged children.Practical significance. By identifying different regression models for the description of psychological well-being on the basis of child-mother attachment indicators, it may be possible to provide interventions to improve psychological well-being based on the characteristics of attachment.

Comparative study for the effect of two different types of attachment on supporting structures in implant retained mandibular complete overdenture

Objective: To compare between implant retained overdenture with two different attachments (Magnet and locator) by measuring the following: Retention. Bone changes by radiographic evaluation. Subjects and Methods: Eight completely edentulous patients were selected from the Outpatient Clinic of the Prosthodontic Department; Faculty of Dental medicine, Al Azhar University and classified into two equal groups. Each patient in two groups received two implants placed in the mandibular canine-premolar region bilaterally. Group (1): four patients received two implants with using locator attachments. Group (2): four patients received two implants with using magnet attachments. Results: Results revealed that, there was no statistically significant difference in bone loss between locator and magnet during the follow up period, and there were no statistically significant mean retention values in the two groups at base line and after 3 months. But 6 months; Magnet attachment showed statistically significantly lower mean retention values than Locator attachment. By time there was a statistically significant decrease in mean retention values of magnet rather than locator attachment. Conclusion: The use of locator and magnet attachments with two implant supported mandibular overdentures leads the same amount of bone resorption around the implants. At the beginning the two attachment have the same retention quality by time magnet attachment loss some of its retention rather than locator attachment due to poor corrosive resistance of magnets within oral fluid requires encapsulation within a new hybrid material. Keywords: Dental Implants, Overdenture, Attachment, Retention

Autism Spectrum Condition and the Built Environment: New Perspectives on Place Attachment and Cultural Heritage

ABSTRACT Values have long provided essential foundation for cultural heritage policy and practice. Traditionally these values were determined by heritage experts and employed by agencies responsible for managing and protecting heritage for society and the future. Such values tended to focus on authorised and normative views of the past. More recently, heritage values have been applied with greater flexibility but to be effective this more flexible approach requires a good understanding of different perspectives. Only through understanding such differences and their implications can heritage genuinely have relevance to everyone in society. In some areas, we think this understanding may be deficient. In this paper we set out new findings which demonstrate that individuals with autism form different types of attachment towards buildings and places and create and respond to heritage values in different ways to neurotypical people.

Stavovi prema religioznosti i relacije sa afektivnom vezanošću u poznoj adolescenciji

The purpose of this study, based on the findings that there is a link between the attachment system and the different aspects of religiosity, is to examine the degree of expression of four religious attitudes - literal belief, post-critical belief, relativism and external critique, as well as their potential relationships with different qualities of parental attachment in late adolescence. The sample is represented by 301 respondents - 176 girls and 125 boys, average age 19.2 years, who completed the Post-Critical Belief Scale and the modified version of the Experiences in Close Relationships Inventory. The results indicate that adolescents have the highest tendency towards post-critical belief and the least tendency towards external criticism, where girls are on average more likely to have a literal and post-critical belief, while boys are more inclined to relativism and external critique. Furthermore, the results showed that among adolescents expressing different types of attachment there are significant differences in leaning towards literal and post-critical belief, external critique, but not relativism, i.e. it was found that higher anxiety and lower avoidance predict a greater tendency towards literal and post-critical belief, whereas a higher avoidance predict a stronger tendency towards external critique, but with the low percentage of explained variance. The results were interpreted based on the context of the findings of previous researches and were perceived in the light of current models which explain the relationship between the quality of attachment and religion.

Early Programming during Attachment Development and its Relevance for Risk/Resilience of Neuropsychiatric and Cardiometabolic Diseases during Adulthood

Social and cultural environmental factors influence the development of susceptibility to diseases in adulthood since the peri-natal stages of life. Sociotype describes the way in which interactions between social, cultural and environmental factors influence health. It plays a role as important as that of the genotype and phenotype in the balance of the health/disease processes during all the life span. Attachment forms part of the sociotype and is defined as the innate biological system that characterizes the link between an infant and a bonding figure. It increases the possibility of survival to a reproductive age and determines empathy and intimacy that when incorrectly established may be the cause of a number of pathological conditions in the adult life. Different types of attachment have, as a consequence, physiological and endocrinological alterations that result from the exposure to stressful and/or traumatic events during early stages of life. These constitute long- term plastic changes in structures in the central nervous system that produce in alterations in signaling molecule production that may arise from epigenetic cues established during the early stages of life in trauma- exposed subjects and that may lead to increased risk of diseases in adulthood. Therefore, sociotype and attachment might determine epigenetic alterations that may act on biological pathways involved in the comorbidity of cardiometabolic and neuropsychiatric diseases.

Исследования роли привязанности в жизни человека. Обзор зарубежных исследований

Attachment theory currently covers more and more research areas. Starting its development with the study of children, now researchers of attachment are increasingly paying attention to the psyche of an adult. Moreover, more and more studies are devoted to the relationship of attachment and psychopathology. This article presents the scientific researches that have been carried out over the past five years and re-open the problem of attachment. The studies investigate the problems of romantic attachment, the effects of attachment on the course of pregnancy, the relationship of attachment and psychopathology in adults, the specificity of psychotherapy for patients with different types of attachment, and give a brief overview of studies of child attachment, which also focuses on psychopathology. This review doesn’t only present new scientific data on the theory of attachment, but also outlines new vectors of research on this issu.

De-coupling or remaining closely coupled to ‘home’: educational strategies around identity-making and advantage of Israeli global middle-class families in London

This article makes an empirical contribution to the study of the global middle class (GMC), and sheds light on the complex relationships that are constructed and sustained by these families with their ‘home nation’ through their educational strategies. Drawing on an inductive analysis of 20 in-depth interviews with Israeli migrant mothers in the United Kingdom who constitute a specific fraction of the GMC, this article examines families’ identity constructions and how these shape their educational practices. The participants constitute a growing phenomenon – highly educated, mobile middle-class families who live and move around the world, and position themselves using global frames of references. We emphasise how country of origin acts as a symbolic object in the cultivation of their children’s identity and how different types of attachment to ‘home nation’ are perceived as offering valuable capital for the GMC. The article therefore contributes much-needed empirical analyses on education strategies within the GMC, and challenges the suggestion that critical to the definition of the GMC is that they are ‘rootless’.

Attachment styles, grief responses, and the moderating role of coping strategies in parents bereaved by the Sewol ferry accident

ABSTRACTBackground: Previous studies on the influence of different types of attachment on grief responses have yielded contradictory outcomes. Little research has been conducted to identify the psychological processes that moderate the relationship between attachment representations and patterns of grief in disaster-related grief.Objective: The present study examines the effects of different attachment types on the grief responses of parents bereaved by loss of a child in a ferry accident, along with the moderating role of coping strategies.Methods: Bereaved parents (n = 81) completed self-report questionnaires evaluating attachment, coping strategies, complicated grief, and shame/guilt. We performed correlational analyses to examine the associations among variables. We also conducted hierarchical regression analyses and simple slope analyses to examine the moderation effects of coping strategies.Results: Anxious attachment was associated with severe shame/guilt, and avoidant attachment correlated with complicated grief. Anxious attachment was positively associated with all types of coping strategies, and avoidant attachment was negatively related to problem- and emotion-focused coping. The use of problem-focused coping strategies was a significant moderator of the relationship between the avoidant attachment dimension and shame/guilt. Avoidant attachment had a significant effect on shame/guilt in groups with a high level of problem-focused coping. In contrast, none of the coping strategies significantly moderated the relationship between anxious attachment and grief response.Conclusions: The results suggest that people with highly avoidant attachment might be overwhelmed by shame and guilt when they try to use problem-focused coping strategies. This finding suggests that grief interventions should be organized with consideration of individual differences in attachment representations.

Representation of children attachment styles in corman’s instruction of family drawing

Corman’s family drawing assessment was evaluated as a measure of different attachment styles in children; specifically not and whether children’s attachment style is represented in their family drawing. Corman’s method (1967) of family drawing comprises precise instructions that children can use to represent their desires about their family and life in a drawing. Using multi stage random cluster sampling, 590 students were selected to complete the Attachment Style Classification Questionnaire (Finzi et al., 2000). They were also asked to draw a family using Corman’s instructions. Data analysis was performed using two statistical methods (Pearson and Spearman correlational coefficient). The results showed that an increased level of secure attachment led to lower levels of evaluation of parents, devaluation of parents, omission of self and dissimilarity to one’s real family and higher levels of identification with parents (p˂0.05). Also as avoidant attachment increased, evaluation of parents, self-evaluation and proximity to one’s parents decreased and devaluation of parents, omission of parents and dissimilarity to one’s real family increased (p˂0.05). Also increased anxious attachment led to less omission of parents and less representation of dissimilarity to one’s real family and more evaluation of parents, distance from parents and identification with parents (p˂0.05). Finally, the findings of this research showed that Corman’s instructions can be a suitable tool to measure different types of attachment.

Relationship between attachment and executive dysfunction in the homeless

ABSTRACTThe executive functions of the homeless may be contributing to the success or failure of social integration processes. The goal of this study was to analyze the relationship between attachment and executive dysfunction in the homeless, specifically, to analyze the prevalence of adult attachment and executive dysfunction patterns, as well as the predictive power of different types of attachment for executive functioning. Participants were 107 homeless. Descriptive analysis revealed the prevalence of insecure attachment, and a high prevalence of clinically significant executive dysfunction. Regression analysis showed that attachment predicts all the executive functions, although the predictive power of attachment decreased when entering the variable drug addiction. People in a situation of chronic social exclusion are characterized by an insecure attachment style and moderate levels of executive dysfunction.

TYPES OF ATTACHMENT OF STUDENTS AND THEIR SUCCESS IN HIGHER EDUCATION INSTITUTIONS

The article presents the results of empirical studies of successful performance in students with different types of attachment. The following research methods were chosen: conversation method, questionnaires, projective technique and testing method represented by the following procedures: "Adult Attachment Interview", projective drawing techniques, "Mother and Child". A significant difference between the successes of training in high school students was noted with avoidant type of attachment with respect to students with reliable and ambivalent types. Students with a reliable and ambivalent attachment styles are more successful in their performance, those with avoidant attachment style are less successful. The worst performance of students with avoiding attachment types can be explained by the fact that they are unlikely to perceive criticism positively, it is difficult for them to build trust relationships with adults and peers, they have inherent infantile behavior. The results of the study provide a basis for the development of programs aimed at preventing school failure prospective students and increase the success of learning in students who are in the learning process.
