Users' Emotional Responses and Behavioural Intentions to Augmented Reality Ad Content Designs

This article specifically examines the emotional implications of using augmented reality (AR) technology in advertising. It primarily focuses on how users' emotional reactions and subsequent actions are influenced by the design of AR advertisements. The text examines the multifaceted impact of emotion in commercial communication, encompassing diverse areas such as political advertising and online advertising that employs hilarious storytelling. The study subsequently examines the impact of emotional components of augmented reality (AR) advertisements on users, emphasizing the crucial roles played by immersive and interactive experiences, creative design, user engagement, and other aspects in guiding emotions and shaping behavioral intentions. Ultimately, the utilization of augmented reality (AR) technology is showcased in the domains of electronic commerce, internet-based food delivery, and educational gaming. In order to gain a comprehensive understanding of emotion in AR advertising, it is necessary to conduct thorough study on the particular application and implementation methods. Additionally, it is important to examine how technological, cultural, and societal factors impact user responses. This paper seeks to analyze and combine existing studies in order to uncover the potential of emotional applications in augmented reality (AR) marketing. Additionally, it attempts to offer guidelines for future research and practical implementation.

Words Expressing Positive Human Emotions in The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn Novel by Mark Twain’s

The language of emotions has infinite possibilities for conveying the subtlest shades of feelings, for evaluating what is happening through sensory experience, for influencing the addressee of the message and for self-expression. Indeed, it is difficult to imagine a human speech devoid of emotional and sensual component, regardless of what culture and language it is a native speaker. The high coefficient of the emotional component in the linguistic canvas of the cultural picture of the world of any nation is evidenced, in particular, by the data of explanatory dictionaries, the pages of which abound with emotionally colored vocabulary. The article reviews words expressing positive emotions in The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn Novel by Mark Twain’s.

Systemic-Relational Design to Enhance Empathy Processes

The chapter investigates the role that design discipline can have in the field of human affective relationships. For this role to be effective, the designer will have to elaborate strategies, tools, and methods for the development of a new generation of relational and interactive artefacts that, through innovative analogue and digital solutions, are proposed as active mediators of interpersonal emotional relationships. Mediation can take place through the decoding of signals with a high emotional component and the management of multisensory interaction modes. The paper proposes some projects developed in this direction within the Hybrid Design Lab, a laboratory born in the Department of Architecture and Industrial Design of the University of Campania "Luigi Vanvitelli", from 2022 placed in the Department of Architecture of the University of Naples Federico II.

A Review Study About Gender Differences in Expressive Language: Spoken And Written Language Differences

This review article aimed at explaining gender differences in expressive language that emerge beginning from the childhood from the biopsychosocial model of perspective. Afterwards, especially parental role on emotional component of expressive language was specified by giving example research studies. The most important finding was that parent and child gender may interact on child’s emotional expressiveness; while mothers tend to encourage their children to emotionally express themselves more than fathers, both mothers and fathers of girls motivate their children more to be emotionally assertive as compared to parents of boys. Parental socialization of expressive language and more specifically of emotional expressiveness results in some gender differences in both oral communication and written language among both adults and adolescents. Similar gender differences can also be observed in online communication. It seems that these differences relate both the level of linguistic effectiveness in general and mostly emotional component of the language, which is emotional expressiveness. Literature indicates that a substantial level of gender differences in language is related to socialization processes that children go through and such gender differences may put especially boys at a disadvantaged position in terms of social and emotional development. Future studies may further investigate gender differences in language and reasons behind such differences from both biological and social perspectives. Since Besides, some intervention programs for gender equality can be developed and applied in related contexts such as families and school environment.

Оценочная функция эмоционально-эстетического компонента личности студента

We consider modern approaches to determining the evaluative side of the emotional and aesthetic component in a modern personality. The interrelation of the emotional and aesthetic parts as dynamic and meaningful components is revealed. The defined structure of the emotional and aesthetic component of personality is multilevel, multifaceted and multifunctional. Based on the many components of the emotional and aesthetic component of the personality, a system of criteria for evaluating the attitude of a person to people and business is eventually formed. Emotional and aesthetic development, providing a conscious, sensual perception of the surrounding reality by a person, forms the moral basis of views and beliefs, provides the opportunity for full-fledged productive interaction, cooperation, communication in collective creativity and various life situations. The level of emotional and aesthetic development of a personality is determined by objective socio-pedagogical and subjective psychological and physiological factors. To unite the team and coordinate the dance group, it is desirable to align it to a socially approved one. In most cases, the level of emotional and aesthetic development of a person is subject to correction, which is possible in the process of collective forms of education that contribute to changing the attitude of a person to creativity, the educational process, self-development and professional formation. The highlighted main components of the evaluation function of the emotional and aesthetic component of the personality can be formed during the educational process of students of the choreographic department and contribute to its effectiveness. As the most effective we consider an open discussion, implemented through the use of communicative skills in accordance with the emotional and aesthetic requirements of the culture of communication, as well as collective versatile creativity with the distribution of role functionality.

Ценностно-смысловые детерминанты профессиональной ответственности в обыденном представлении россиян

Background. The study of the value-meaning aspect of notions of professional responsibility is due to their potential impact on the efficiency of work and on psychological well-being of a specialist. The analysis of literary sources showed insufficient development of the emotional component of the studied phenomenon. Objectives. The article focuses on carrying out a structural and informative analysis of the views of Internet users on professional responsibility as well as on selecting value-meaning factors from the general context of representations. Study Participants. Users of the social network VKontakte and specialized Internet forums participated in the study. The number of author’s texts analysed was 1010. Each participant submitted one communication, i.e. the number of participants corresponds to the number of texts and amounts to 1,010 people. The total number of messages included 800 texts from the social network and 210 texts from the Internet forums. Methods. The study of ordinary representations of Internet users about professional responsibility is conducted with the help of statistical analysis of word occurrence frequency (PyMorphy2). Classification of the analyzed units (nouns, verbs, adjectives) is made on the basis of statistical processing and expert evaluation, structural elements of the phenomenon of “professional responsibility” and its value-meaning characteristics are shown. The analysis of contingency on the basis of testing with corpus of Russian language dataset RuTweetCorp, based on Bernoulli distribution, neuronetwork model of analysis of emotional background of messages (FastText), neuronetwork model Dostoevsky and dataset RuSentiment. Results. The conducted analysis allowed to present the structure of “professional responsibility”, to reveal cognitive, emotional, and behavioral components. The study identified a fourth meta-structural component, never previously identified by other authors, which is related to the “God” construct. The value-meaning patterns of professional responsibility have been identified and described. The analysis of the emotional background of the messages made it possible to highlight the trend towards negative assessments of the phenomenon of “professional responsibility” at the current stage of society development. Conclusions. The approach proposed in the study allows to reveal the psychological essence of professional responsibility, to highlight the importance of the emotional component in the strategies of acceptance/avoidance of responsibility. The equation of professional responsibility with personal responsibility of a specialist has been revealed, while the notions of national, social, and corporate responsibility are manifested insignificantly. The study of professional responsibility through the value-meaning aspect can become the basis for analysis of social behavior in a person as a whole in the future.

Correlation of evaluativeness, expressiveness and emotionality

The linguistic category of evaluation is a reflection of the logical category of evaluation, which expresses the subject's attitude to some object or phenomenon. The category of evaluation has points of contact with such phenomena as comparison, as in the evaluative act there is always a correlation with a certain standard, and modality, which, like evaluation, contains such elements as objectivity, subjectivity, and attitude. The distinctive features of the two mentioned categories from the category of evaluation are the absence of an axiological conclusion in the comparison and the limitation of the expression of modality to the level of the sentence, while evaluation can be expressed by elements of all linguistic levels. The obligatory elements of the evaluation frame are the subject, object and basis of evaluation. In literary texts, the source of all evaluative judgements is the author, who can put them into the mouth of the observer, narrator or characters. The object can be any element of reality, but most often people’s actions and qualities are subject to evaluation. Depending on the basis, there are axiological, intellectual, emotional, etc. evaluations. Although there is a notion of subjective and objective evaluation, we can only speak of relative objectivity. In connection with this criterion, we distinguish between evaluation in the narrow sense, associated with the subjective opposition between good and bad, and in the broad sense, where the object is correlated with the norms accepted in society. The evaluative semantics is revealed most fully by means of lexical-phraseological and syntactic levels. Lexical evaluative predicates are divided into general evaluative predicates, in which the evaluative meaning constitutes the denotation, and particular evaluative predicates, where the evaluative component of the meaning is included in its connotation along with expressive and emotional components. In most cases, these three components are co-present in a word, on the basis of which many linguists do not distinguish between evaluativeness, emotionality and expressiveness. However, there are differences: expressivity consists in the purposeful influence on the listener by increasing the impressive power of the utterance without changing the semantics of the unit, emotionality expresses the subject’s own impressions, while the evaluative component is associated with the reflection of the measure of conformity of the object to a standard in some quality.

Vocal Dose and Vocal Demands in Contemporary Musical Theatre.

To document and quantify vocal dose and student-singers' self-assessment during rehearsals for a contemporary musical theater production. Six student singers fastened the sensor from the KayPentax APM 3200 dosimeter to the lower neck to capture neck vibration data during their preparation for the musical Wonderland by Frank Wildhorn. Data were collected during 8-hour periods, at four different stages throughout the rehearsal process: beginning (music and choreography learning phase), middle (staging phase), and end (running the entire show/dress rehearsal phase), plus a post-production day once the production had concluded to establish a baseline vocal load. Students concurrently completed the EASE questionnaire1 after each data collection day. The EASE score (Appendix1) and demographics/perceptual questionnaire (Appendix2) revealed that all subjects (three males and three females) found the singing role vocally and physically demanding but only two found the roles to be emotionally challenging. The musical score demanded a higher usage of chest register (judged perceptually) than mixed register from lead singers. All subjects' maximum fundamental frequency range exceeded the pitch range required by the score. The mean daily vibration dose (distance dose, as computed with Kay Pentax Software) of the three individual female singers' during rehearsals, 5,203 meters, was higher than the mean daily dose of the three male singers, 3,766 meters. The subjects' self-ratings on the EASE were not correlated with the distance dose. A review of Wonderland's score and perceptual judgment of the singers' performances revealed extensive use of chest register, with belting and mix vocal strategies being the predominant stylistic choices. Students described the singing roles' vocal and physical requirements as more challenging than the character's emotional components. This pilot study provides information on the vocal dose for lead and ensemble singers in rehearsal for a Contemporary Musical Theatre production. Singers and voice professionals may find dosimetry a valuable tool for monitoring the vocal dose during rehearsals and performances.

Spiritual health under the wartime: existential aspects.

Aim: To study the spiritual health in existential dimensions, as well as the meaning, value, and emotional components of spiritual health of Ukrainians under the wartime. Materials and Methods: The theoretical and methodological framework of the paper is represented by the works of scholars in classical existentialism, contemporary philosophers, psychologists, medical psychologists, theologians, sociologists, etc. The complex nature of the issue necessitated the use of interdisciplinary approaches, philosophical, general scientific and special sociological methods of gathering, processing and analyzing information. Results: The article analyzes the perception of spirituality and spiritual health related to mental and social aspects in the philosophy of classical existentialism and existential-humanistic psychology. The paper justifies the heuristic potential of these approaches for maintaining spiritual health of Ukrainians, which is based on holistic approaches to human beings and their spiritual frames. The article represents the results of sociological research by the Institute of Sociology of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine, the Scientific Research Institute of Social and Economic Development of the City, and a survey of the PhD students of the Bogomolets National Medical University (N=103) made by the authors, representing the results of statistical treatment of the spiritual health characteristics: emotional, value and meaning components. Conclusions: The study has shown that the deterioration of mental health indicators of Ukrainians during the war is not accompanied by corresponding negative trends in their spiritual health. However, further research on this issue is necessary, including studies among respondents from other age groups (faculty, staff of the Bogomolets National Medical University).

Personal and social factors of stress perception by senior adolescent boys and girls

At present, due to the speed and intensity of modern life and the high stressfulness of events and situations, scientific interest in the study of stress and factors that allow to constructively overcome them has seriously increased. Purpose: to study the contribution of personal and social characteristics to the perception of stress in senior adolescence. Hypothesis: boys and girls manifest the parameters of stress perception differently: overstrain as an emotional component and hardiness to stress as an instrumental component. For girls, the perceived stress is more closely related to their personal characteristics, and for boys it’s associated with social ones. In general, in the period from 15 to 17 years, personal characteristics contribute more to the ability to reduce or increase intensity of stress, and social characteristics contribute to the activation of efforts to counteract stress. A sample of 90 senior adolescents aged 15–17 was divided into two groups: 45 boys and 45 girls. Methods: the scale of perceived stress (ShVS-10, adaptation by Ababkov et al.); the scale of personal anxiety A.M.Prikhozhan; S.Muddy’s hardiness questionnaire (Leont’ev, Rasskazova’s adaptation); K.Riff ’s psychological well-being scales (Troshikhina, adaptation by Zhukovskaya); G. Sommer and T.Fydrich’s perceived social support questionnaire (adaptation by Kholmogorova, Petrova). Correlation and regression analysis was carried out. The study showed gender characteristics and differences in the perception of stress, which are manifested in a subjectively more intense and active experience of stress by girls compared to their peers boys. Data have been obtained on the greater contribution of individual-personal characteristics to the perception of stress in general and to such a component as overstrain in particular. It is also shown that in counteracting stress, along with personal characteristics, the factor of social support also plays a significant role.

The Effectiveness of Emotion Focused Group Therapy (EFT) on Rumination and Emotional Expression in Patients with Multiple Sclerosis

Aim: Multiple sclerosis is a progressive neurological disease. This disease has many negative and positive effects on the physical and mental health of patients. The aim of this research was to investigate the effectiveness of emotion focused group therapy (EFT) on emotional expression and rumination in patients with multiple sclerosis in Shiraz. Method: The statistical population of this research includes all patients with M. S. In the city of Shiraz in 1401, their diagnosis was confirmed by a neurologist based on McDonald's 2017 criteria. After identifying patients with MS. 30 people who met the criteria for entering the research were selected purposefully and randomly and in equal numbers were placed in an experimental group and a control group. The experimental group underwent emotion focused group therapy sessions during 8 sessions of 90 minutes. During this period, the control group remained waiting without receiving any intervention. The main data of this research was obtained using Nolenhoeksma and Maro (1991) rumination questionnaires and King and Emmons (1962) emotional expressiveness questionnaires. Descriptive statistics and inferential statistics (variance analysis with repeated measurements) were used in data analysis. Findings: Data analysis showed that after the implementation of the intervention, there was a significant difference between the control and experimental groups in both variables of emotional expression and rumination (P<0.05). A significant difference was observed in emotional expression components (positive emotion expression, sincerity expression and negative emotion expression) and rumination components (rumination responses and distracting responses) between patients with multiple sclerosis in the experimental and control groups (05 /0>P). Conclusion: The use of emotion-oriented therapy is a suitable intervention to improve emotional expression and rumination in multiple sclerosis patients and can be used to improve psychological status and better cope with the disease.

Комунікативний портрет онлайн-викладача англійської мови та перекладознавства ЗВО

The article presents the results of the analysis of the communicative portrait of the online teacher of the English language and translation studies at a higher education institution, which was conducted in the context of digitalisation of education in the context of glocalisation. As a result of the analysis of the attended practical classes in various disciplines related to the study of English and translation studies, which were conducted in a distance format, four components of the professional communicative portrait of the online teacher of English and translation studies at a higher education institution have been identified: virtual communicative portrait, non-verbal communicative portrait, psychological and cognitive communicative portrait and competence-based communicative portrait. The paper considers their main characteristics and explores the strategies that underlie the creation of each of the portraits. The research was conducted in the context of studying online learning as a special form of communication between a teacher of English and translation studies and higher education students, which takes place distantly with the help of information technologies. The use of these technologies can transform the emotional, mental and motivational components of the human personality, which is multimodal, and provide the opportunity to use different ways of presenting new information, making education more inclusive and accessible. Speaking about methodological support for an educational institution, the authors take into account the trend towards glocalisation of educational programmes aimed at creating meaningful connections between the global context and local culture, which makes education relevant and meaningful for students. The analysis allowed not only to form the holistic view of the digital communicative portrait of the online teacher of English and translation studies at a higher education institution, but also to record the modern requirements for a teacher working in the era of digitalisation, glocalisation and the development of distance learning.

Predicting Psychological Well-Being Based on Digital Self-Efficacy and Emotional Intelligence in Students

Objective: This study aimed to investigate the prediction of psychological well-being based on digital self-efficacy and emotional intelligence among students at the Islamic Azad University, South Tehran Branch. Methods and Materials: The study type is correlational-descriptive and cross-sectional. The statistical population includes all students of the Islamic Azad University, South Tehran Branch, in the academic year 2023-2024. Sampling was conducted using the convenience method, and 200 individuals were selected based on the Morgan table, considering the possibility of statistical attrition. Data collection tools included standardized questionnaires on psychological well-being, digital self-efficacy, and emotional intelligence. Data were analyzed using Pearson correlation and multiple regression methods. Findings: Results showed that all components of digital self-efficacy and emotional intelligence have a significant relationship with psychological well-being. The highest correlation coefficient was related to the security component in digital self-efficacy (p<0.05, 0.64) and the emotional awareness component in emotional intelligence (p<0.05, 0.69). Multiple regression analysis showed that both independent variables significantly predict psychological well-being. The coefficient of determination (R²) was 0.30 for digital self-efficacy and 0.48 for emotional intelligence, indicating significant variance explained in psychological well-being by these variables. Conclusion: Based on the results of this study, increasing digital self-efficacy and emotional intelligence skills can help improve students' psychological well-being. Universities and educational institutions can help students enhance their abilities and, consequently, achieve better quality of life and mental health by designing and implementing special educational programs in this area.

Emotional labor and emotional exhaustion in psychologists: Preliminary evidence for the protective role of self-compassion and psychological flexibility

The emotional exhaustion component of burnout is concerningly prevalent in psychologists providing psychotherapy. Emotional labor is a known contributor to burnout through the pathway of emotional dissonance and is beginning to develop attention in psychologist wellbeing literature. Although the relationship between emotional dissonance and emotional exhaustion in psychologists has been observed previously, constructs within an individual's locus of control that affect this relationship are not known. We attempted to explore possible variables that may affect emotional dissonance's relationship with emotional exhaustion in psychologists to identify possible factors amenable to future interventions aimed at improving psychologist wellbeing. Specifically, we examined how self-compassion, psychological flexibility, and career experience may affect the relationship between emotional dissonance and emotional exhaustion. We conducted a path analysis on data gathered from 454 psychologists recruited internationally. Results indicated that self-compassion may affect burnout indirectly through the mechanism of emotional dissonance. Additionally, results suggest that psychological flexibility may exert a conditional effect on the relationship between emotional dissonance and emotional exhaustion such that higher rates of psychological flexibility may weaken this relationship. We found no evidence to support career experience's hypothesized conditional effects. Our findings provide the first examination of these constructs in this occupational group and support the potential role of self-compassion and psychological flexibility in assisting psychologists to improve their wellbeing.

СОЦИАЛЬНАЯ КОМПЕТЕНТНОСТЬ СПЕЦИАЛИСТОВ ЖЕЛЕЗНОДОРОЖНОГО ТРАНСПОРТА

Railway transport is the leader of the Russian transport market and one of the largest companies in the global transport sector. This powerful tool not only serves as a driving force for the development of many industries in the Russian Federation, but is also one of the criteria for assessing well-being and welfare of its citizens, which dictates the need for a detailed study of all aspects of the functioning of railway production. When considering the quality of the implementation of railway services, special attention must be paid to the internal quality system, namely, corporate culture, working conditions, quality of service, and a multi-level team management system. In modern rapidly changing socio-technological conditions of development of the transport industry, the efficiency and competitiveness of a railway transport specialist is determined not only by the quality of knowledge and skills in the structure of professional competencies, but also by a set of personal qualities that allow optimal ergonomic passage through the stages of socio-technological adaptation and further professionalization. A multifactorial analysis of “social competence” as a pedagogical category, from the standpoint of activity-based, personal, subjective, axiological, competence-based approaches, the study of regulatory documentation and conditions for the implementation of professional activities in transport, made it possible to determine the essence and structure of the social competence of railway specialists as an integrative quality of personality, the structure of which can be represented by a set of motivational, value, emotional, and communicative components. The choice of indicators (social initiative and activity, the ability to transmit generally accepted and intra-industry social values, empathy, tolerance, self-esteem, ability for effective communication, social mobility) in the structure of social competence is substantiated and the levels of their formation are determined. Situational and functional approaches to identifying the content of the main stages of socialization in the professional training of railway transport specialists made it possible to specify the psychological and pedagogical conditions for the targeted formation of indicators of social competence: incessancy and continuity in the development of a block of socially oriented disciplines; practice-oriented educational process; active learning methods; design technologies; formation of an active subject position of students

A CROSS-SECTIONAL STUDY ON ASSOCIATION BETWEEN EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE AND ACADEMIC PERFORMANCE AMONG NURSING STUDENTS OF SELECTED NURSING COLLEGES IN KATHMANDU

Background: Emotional intelligence incorporates the important aspects of interpersonal and intrapersonal relationships, adaptability, moods and stress management skills, which have a profound effect on the academic performance of students. Methodology: An Analytical Cross-sectional study was carried out with main objective to find out the association between emotional intelligence and academic performance of nursing students from selected nursing colleges. Using non - probability purposive sampling method, PCL Nursing 3rd year students were selected and data was collected using standardized Assessing Emotions Scale to measure Emotional Intelligence and final examination score of the students was considered as academic performance. Collected data was processed and analyzed using SPSS version 24. Results: The findings revealed that majority of the nursing students have high emotional intelligence. There is no any statistically significant correlation between emotional intelligence and academic performance of nursing students. Regarding sub dimensions of Emotional Intelligence, there was no any statistically significant correlation between managing other’s emotion, perception of emotion and utilization of emotion with academic performance, except for managing own emotion which has statistically significant correlation with academic performance. Nursing students from different ethnicity, mother and father’s education background do not defer in EI scores except age and type of family. Conclusion: Majority of the nursing students have higher level of emotional intelligence. Emotional intelligence is not significantly correlated with academic performance. This paper suggests that emotional intelligence is not guaranteed with the highest academic grades of students and that emotional intelligence components may be incorporated into the curriculum.

Audre Lorde, Myth, and the Problem of the Other

The presence of blacks in the United States of America today constitutes one of the most peculiar phenomena in the history of modern man. Never had such a significant abduction of a people from their fatherland been recorded. Blacks were considered beasts of burden and property but did not create the language or metaphors by which they were defined. Having neither logos nor identity, they craved the motherland. To perpetuate slavery and colonialism, the white imperialists made up fallacious philosophical arguments that negated the selfhood of blacks. The white subject defined them as the “Other” and objectified them. Racist theorists like Thomas Jefferson, Friedrich Hegel, and Comte de Gobineau posited the black person as the antithesis of the white man. In “Notes on the State of Virginia”, Jefferson sets the “Negro” as an evil force within the nation. In Philosophy of History, Hegel argues that the “negro” stands outside the history of intellectual, technological, moral and cultural progress driven by reason. The history of the Negro stands outside of intellectual history, and so only by colonisation can the black be civilised. As Michelle Wright makes us understand, however, Senghor was to draw heavily from Gobineau in theorising negritude. Gobineau did concede the emotional and artistic component to blacks.

Emotion selectable end-to-end text-based speech editing

Text-based speech editing is a convenient way for users to edit speech by intuitively cutting, copying, and pasting text. Previous work introduced CampNet, a context-aware mask prediction network that significantly improved the quality of edited speech. However, this paper proposes a new task: adding emotional effects to the edited speech during text-based speech editing to enhance the expressiveness and controllability of the edited speech. To achieve this, we introduce Emo-CampNet, which allows users to select emotional attributes for the generated speech and has the ability to edit the speech of unseen speakers. Firstly, the proposed end-to-end model controls the generated speech's emotion by introducing additional emotion attributes based on the context-aware mask prediction network. Secondly, to prevent emotional interference from the original speech, a neutral content generator is proposed to remove the emotional components, which is optimized using the generative adversarial framework. Thirdly, two data augmentation methods are proposed to enrich the emotional and pronunciation information in the training set. Experimental results1 show that Emo-CampNet effectively controls the generated speech's emotion and can edit the speech of unseen speakers. Ablation experiments further validate the effectiveness of emotional selectivity and data augmentation methods.

Связь стилей родительского воспитания c учебной мотивацией и эмоциональным состоянием подростков в условиях цифровизации

Background. The emotional state, the length of screen time and the level of educational motivation of schoolchildren are often a matter of concern for many parents. The study examines the relationship between educational motivation, the level of anger, and parenting styles from the adolescents’ point of view. Objectives. Identification and description of the specific interrelations between various aspects of parenting and the teenagers' motivation and anger in the context of global digitalization. Study Participants. The study involved 265 people (54% — female). The average age of the respondents was 13.8 years (M = 13.8, Me = 14, SD = 1.62). Methods. To study parenting styles, teenagers filled out the ad hoc questionnaire “Adolescents about parents”. The motivational and emotional components of the adolescents’ personality were examined by means of Andreeva & Prikhozhan’ questionnaire “Motivation of learning and emotional attitude to learning”. The level of digital engagement of adolescents was assessed on the basis of daily statistics of the average time spent using a mobile phone. Statistical analysis was performed using the general linear model (GLM) method in the Jamovi 2.3.16.0 program. Results. According to the results of the GLM model, the adolescents’ achievement motivation is negatively related to their average screen time. The level of educational motivation of adolescents is positively associated with the positive interest and autonomy provided by their parents. The teenagers’ level of anger is positively associated with directiveness, hostility and inconsistency of parents. According to the Wilcoxon test results, parenting styles such as directiveness, hostility and autonomy are more pronounced in fathers than in mothers. Conclusions. The most favorable parenting style for achieving high academic motivation and reducing the level of anger in adolescents is a pronounced positive interest and autonomy provided by parents along with a low level of directiveness, hostility and inconsistency. Achievement motivation has a negative relationship with the length of teenagers' screen time.
