To the 50th anniversary of debates with E.V. Ilyenkov on the problem of the ideal

The article examines a number of issues that remain relevant in this long-standing debate. Among them, a significant place has being occupied by the deaf-blindness problem and the interpretation of the results of the famous “Zagorsky experiment”. In the late 1970s, E.V. Ilyenkov, his followers, as well as the mass press and official bodies called it “an outstanding achievement of the world-class Soviet science”: four congenitally deaf-blind people, bereft of psyche and consciousness were able to graduate from the Lomonosov Moscow State University faculty of psychology, thanks to Marxist methods of education. This was the basis for E.V. Ilyenkov’s concept of the personality formation from “the mental scratch”, as a purely social formation, excluding the role of genetic factors, which was used for broad philosophical conclusions about the nature of consciousness and cognition. However, soon all the four were found out to have lost their sight and hearing at a fairly late age, having already developed consciousness and formed speech. These decisive facts refuted the concept of E.V. Ilyenkov, but were hidden by him and his followers that was supported by the official bodies. During perestroika, this falsification was publicly exposed. However, this falsification is still suppressed in many philosophical publications by E.V. Ilyenkov’s followers, and the Zagorsk experiment is extolled as an outstanding scientific achievement. The article critically examines these publications in terms of the biosocial problem analysis, which has become especially acute in the context of the global environmental crisis. It is emphasized that in the context of developing technological capabilities for vision and hearing prosthetics, it is necessary to develop new methodological, pedagogical and psychological approaches to solving the problems of deafblindness.

Рефлексия как культурально-персонологический механизм становления научного творчества и духовного поиска в образовании (в связи с 65-летним юбилеем В. В. Умрихина)

The article is devoted to the actual study of the factors of the formation of the personality of the historian and methodologist of human studies V.V. Umrikhin, the interaction of which forms a psychological mechanism for the development of creativity of a modern scientist. For the first time, the periodization of his life creation in the socio-cultural conditions of the interrelation of external institutional and internal personological determinants determining the formation of the subject of scientific activity and the productivity of his self-realization in the scientific study of history and in the development of a comprehensive methodology of modern psychological cognition has been developed. The system-forming role of the interrelation of formal and informal communications in the formation of professional self-consciousness of the subject of scientific creativity is shown. The interrelation of formal and informal communications in the formation of the professional formation of the subject of scientific creativity is shown. Formal communications were carried out in the institutional space of V.V. Umrikhin's professional education as a student (at the Faculty of Psychology of Moscow State University – Lomonosov Moscow State University) and a graduate student (in the sector of social psychology of science, headed by the scientific supervisor of his diploma and dissertation research, the leading Russian historian of psychology M.G. Yaroshevsky) of the Institute of the History of Natural Science and Technology (IIEiT) of the USSR Academy of Sciences named after S. I. Vavilov, as well as research activities both in this sector and in parallel – teaching the history and theory of human studies at the Departments of General Psychology of Moscow State University and the Orthodox Humanitarian University. V.V. Umrikhin's informal communications were carried out by him with MSU students and IIEiT graduate students who participated in the system-methodological circle on reflexive psychology of creativity, led by I. N. Semenov in the Scientific Student Society of the Faculty of Psychology of Moscow State University and in the All-Union Section "Psychology of Creativity", which worked under the chairmanship of Ya. A. Ponomarev on the basis of the Institute of Psychology of the USSR Academy of Sciences. The system-forming role of complementarity of institutional-formal and initiative-informal communications as socio-psychological determinants in the formation of professional self-consciousness of subjects of scientific creativity in the socio-cultural conditions of the development of modern psychology is shown.

PENGARUH GROWTH MINDSET TERHADAP STRES AKADEMIK MAHASISWA

Students who have a growth mindset tend to be able to face academic challenges and demands. This study aims to determine the effect of a growth mindset on students' academic stress levels. This research method uses a quantitative paradigm with a correlational approach to determine the relationship between a growth mindset and students' academic stress levels.

Need Analysis Course Design: ESP Textbook Evaluation in The Psychology Faculty

This study aims to describe the 'need analysis' of English for Psychology courses and evaluate the ESP textbook from the point of view of the textbook users at the Faculty of Psychology. A need analysis survey in learning ESP and ESP textbook evaluation was conducted and then analyzed quantitively. The data sources of this research were students of the Faculty of Psychology who were taken by purposive sampling, which amounted to 20 people already in the 4th, 6th, and 8th semesters, the head of the Psychology department, and three lecturers in the Psychology Faculty. The data collection used was a questionnaire and documentation. The data is in the form of questionnaire results and interviews. Documentation technique is used in collecting data, while analysis technique is used in analyzing data, namely reduction, data display, and drawing conclusions and verification. The study results show that language skill materials are crucial for future Psychology students.
 Regarding speaking skills, students primarily require resources for conversing with current issues that are up-to-date. Regarding the students' need to access psychology journals and textbooks, writing and skills in composing scientific articles, reports, and lab documents are essential. However, the study reveals dissatisfaction among Psychology students with the current ESP textbook, particularly in appearance, visuals, design, layout, and writing materials. Despite some elements meeting their needs, such as layout, content, exercises, and speaking resources, improvements are needed in certain areas. Consequently, it is recommended that the ESP textbook be enhanced to better cater to these requirements, and future researchers undertaking similar studies should consider this focus on English for Specific Purposes (ESP).

Pengaruh Self efficacy Terhadap Kemampuan Problem Solving Mahasiswa Akhir Fakultas Psikologi di Universitas Muhammadiyah Jember dalam Mengerjakan Tugas Akhir

Problem solving is a search for a solution carried out by individuals using various methods to solve the problems being faced. Meanwhile, self-efficacy is an individual's self-confidence related to one's ability to complete the tasks or problems being faced by the individual. This type of research is quantitative. The respondents in this research were final students who were working on their thesis at the Faculty of Psychology, UM Jember. The results of this research show that there is a significant influence between the self-efficacy variables and problemsolving abilities where the sig. 2-tailed 0.000 < 0.05 means H0 is rejected and H1 is accepted, which means there is a significant influence between self-efficacy and problemsolving abilities. The variable contribution of 0.935 as seen from R square can be interpreted to mean that self efficacy has a contribution effect of 93.5% on variable Y and the other 6.5% can be influenced by other factors outside of variable habits, sense of security, economy, uncertainty, and perception (Rinawati, 2011).

To be a freshman during the COVID-19 pandemic: A cross-lagged model of depression, mentalizing, and epistemic trust.

Research has shown that severity of depression increased in freshmen during their first months at university due to increased social and academic pressures. Since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, several cross-sectional studies have suggested that levels of depression in university students are higher than before the pandemic, but longitudinal data are largely lacking. This study investigated severity of depression and negative affect linked to the pandemic among freshmen during their first semester at a large university in Flanders, Belgium. We also investigated whether epistemic trust predicted severity of depression and pandemic-related negative affect and whether problems with reflective functioning (or mentalizing) mediated these relations. Participants in this two-wave prospective study were 289 first-year students of the Faculty of Psychology and Educational Sciences of a large Belgian university. We conducted paired samples t-tests and cross-panel analysis to answer the research question. The number of students at risk of clinical depression increased by 41% between T1 (early October 2020) and T2 (late December 2020). Epistemic mistrust at T1 was prospectively associated with an increase in the prevalence and severity of depression at T2. Problems with mentalizing and negative COVID-19-related affect were positively associated with severity of depression at T2 and mediated the association between epistemic mistrust and severity of depression at T2. The findings highlight the key role of epistemic trust in the development of depression among freshmen, with the COVID-19 pandemic presenting an additional source of uncertainty.

Hubungan Fear of Missing out dengan Social Media Addiction pada Pengguna Instagram

Purpose: This study aims to see the relationship between fear of missing out and social media addiction among students of the Faculty of Psychology, Padjadjaran University who use Instagram. Methodology/approach: Researchers used the fear of missing out scale (FoMOS) and the Bergen social media addiction scale (BSMAs) to measure the two variables. This research is a quantitative study using a non-experimental correlational study design. The sample collected was 94 people using stratified sampling technique which was divided into four strata (batch 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020). The Spearman test was conducted to see the correlation between the two variables. Results/findings: The results obtained show a significant correlation between the two variables with a positive relationship. This shows that the higher the level of anxiety (FoMO) of an individual, the higher the tendency for the individual to show addictive behavior towards social media (SMA), Instagram. Limitations: The limitation of this research lies in the number of participants, as the researchers were unable to study a broader population. Contribution: This research contributes to our understanding of the relationship between fear of missing out and social media addiction and provides valuable insights for promoting responsible social media usage.

Preparing students – future teachers to minimize deviantogenic threats from the digital space

Introduction. The prevalence of deviant behavior in the modern youth environment is recorded by official statistics and data from relevant departments. In this regard, the prevention of deviant behavior of children and youth is one of the most pressing issues for pedagogical science and practice. The research topic is relevant because at present the media and information space is one of the main sources of deviance of the younger generation and the educational forces of society are in need of purposeful minimization of deviantogenic threats from the digital environment. Purpose of the study: substantiation of the training program for future teachers for the implementation of the deviantological component of media and information literacy of schoolchildren and their parents. Materials and methods. The total sample of the study was 182 people in the experimental group (hereinafter referred to as the EG) and 123 people in the control group (hereinafter referred to as the CG). In the EG - 12 boys (6.6%) and 170 girls (93.4%). In the CG there were 5 boys (4%) and 118 girls (96%). At the time of the first stage of the study, the respondents were aged 18-23 years. All subjects are students of the training areas: "Pedagogical Education", "Psychological and Pedagogical Education" and the specialty "Pedagogy and Psychology of Deviant Behavior" of the Faculty of Pedagogy, Psychology and Communication Science of the Kuban State University. At the control stage (5 years after graduation), the sample is represented by 73 graduates who participated in the previous stages: 44 people from the EG (5 boys and 39 girls) and 29 people from the CG (1 boy and 28 girls). Methods of mathematical statistics: Pearson's chi-squared test (χ2 ). Research results. At the formative stage, within the framework of these disciplines, a program was implemented to prepare students for the formation of the deviantological component of media and information literacy among schoolchildren and parents. Differences were recorded between the indicators in the experimental group before and after the formative stage. When comparing the results of a survey on the impact of media products on adolescents before and after the experiment, the calculated value of Pearson's chi-squared test was χ2 emp = 136,876 (p≤0,01). When studying the answers about trying to understand and evaluate the interests and goals of the creators, χ2 emp = 132,780 (p≤0,01) was obtained. Studying the answers to the question about the critical understanding of values and attitudes that are embedded in the media product, in the experimental group, χ2 emp = 167,656 (p≤0,01) was obtained. Comparing the results of the answers to the question about the need to prepare a modern person for a critical analysis of media products, the value of the criterion was χ2 emp = 127,641 (p≤0,01). Conclusion. The prospect of the study is the addition of the methodology for deviantological analysis of media products, as well as the creation of a digital platform for using the methodology and placing training materials to scale the experience.

Eco-Brick-Making Workshop for Cianjur Disaster Survivors

The earthquake that rocked Cianjur on November 21 2022 with a magnitude of 5.6 caused around 58,000 residents to be forced to flee. The large number of evacuees and volunteers has caused a pile of garbage at the evacuation site. Seeing this fact, the Faculty of Psychology, Jayabaya University, in collaboration with Putra Indonesia Cianjur University, took the initiative to provide education and training in making eco-brick from used plastic drink bottles. Eco-brick is an easy and inexpensive way to reduce plastic waste that is difficult to decompose. The activity was carried out at MTSN 6 Cianjur on December 28, 2022. From this training, it is hoped that the community will have the ability to utilize waste bottled drinks in goods that have high economic value. Eco-bricks can be used as chairs, tables and even building additives. This activity is also a form of application of environmental psychology as a branch of psychology that studies the interrelationships between individuals and the physical environment, both the natural environment and the human-built environment; set an example and increase public awareness and concern to always maintain the cleanliness of the surrounding environment under any circumstances.

Hedges, mottes, and baileys: Causally ambiguous statistical language can increase perceived study quality and policy relevance.

There is a norm in psychology to use causally ambiguous statistical language, rather than straightforward causal language, when describing methods and results of nonexperimental studies. However, causally ambiguous language may inhibit a critical examination of the study's causal assumptions and lead to a greater acceptance of policy recommendations that rely on causal interpretations of nonexperimental findings. In a preregistered experiment, 142 psychology faculty, postdocs, and doctoral students (54% female), ages 22-67 (M = 33.20, SD = 8.96), rated the design and analysis from hypothetical studies with causally ambiguous statistical language as of higher quality (by .34-.80 SD) and as similarly or more supportive (by .16-.27 SD) of policy recommendations than studies described in straightforward causal language. Thus, using statistical rather than causal language to describe nonexperimental findings did not decrease, and may have increased, perceived support for implicitly causal conclusions.

The Relationship of Social Support and Resilience Psychological Well-Being on Student Survivors of Covid-19

Covid-19 survivor students who have experienced this will certainly be an unforgettable experience where everything is completely limited in terms of communication and social interaction, coupled with the labeling of 'Covid-19 sufferers' and the emergence of feelings of anxiety and thoughts. Other negatives add to their own problems for survivors. During the healing process, mental disorders arise, such as anxiety, stress, and self-acceptance as a survivor, which affects the individual's psychological condition. Coupled with the social changes during the pandemic, it also adds to psychological problems that will affect the psychological well-being of individuals. Basically, psychological well-being is a feeling that you can control yourself. The condition of a person's psychological well-being also depends on the surrounding environment, one of the factors is social support. This is obtained if a person's high social support and resilience will affect the individual's psychological well-being, especially for students who have survived Covid-19. This study aims to determine whether there is a relationship between Social Support and Resilience to Psychological Well-Being in COVID-19 Survivors. This study uses quantitative methods with correlation techniques, namely multiple correlation test techniques involving as many as 110 students of the Faculty of Psychology at the University Bhayangkara Jakarta Raya. The relationship has a significant positive direction with a strength that is considered strong. And it can be said that the higher the social support and resilience, the higher the level of psychological well-being in student survivors of Covid-19. Vice versa, the lower the social support and resilience, the lower the level of psychological well-being

STUDENT EVALUATION OF TEACHING QUALITY AT THE UNIVERSITY OF KINSHASA

The aim of this study was to obtain information on the perception of Université de Kinshasa students of the quality of the education provided at their institution. The study was based on two hypotheses: (1) Université de Kinshasa students would have a positive appreciation of the quality of the education they receive; (2) socio-demographic variables such as age, gender, promotion and department would influence students' assessment of the quality of the education they receive. To test this hypothesis, a scale was designed and administered to 114 students from the University of Kinshasa, Faculty of Psychology and Educational Sciences. The scale assessed four dimensions of teaching quality: the quality of teaching planning, teachers' performance, learning assessment and teachers' mastery of the subject. The results show that students at the University of Kinshasa have a positive assessment of the teaching provided at their institution. In other words, they affirm that the quality of teaching at their university is good. This quality is reflected in four indicators: (1) good planning of teaching by teachers, (2) good performance by teachers, (3) good assessment of learning and (4) mastery of the subject by teachers.

Mindfulness Modification Training to Reduce College Student Anxiety in Dealing with Thesis

Each student will experience anxiety when working on a thesis. In this study, students writing their theses in the sixth semester of the Faculty of Psychology at Diponegoro University will be tested to discover if modified mindfulness can lower anxiety levels. The participants in this study were 15 students on 6th semester from the Faculty of Psychology at Universitas Diponegoro. The Hamilton Rating Scale for Anxiety (HRS-A) pretest and posttest anxiety scale was employed as the data collection tool. One group test experiment serves as the study methodology. It is possible to infer from the Paired Samples T-test findings that the variance of the data is homogeneous or equal because there are a known number of p values that are 0.425 > 0.05. The value of 0.959 > 0.05 or 0.672 > 0.05 is well recognized in assumption checks. It can be said that the pretest data is usually distributed as a result. The study's findings support the idea that students writing theses experience much lower anxiety levels when they participate in a modified mindfulness training program that incorporates progressive muscle relaxation. To boost the effectiveness and usage of mindfulness modification to lessen anxiety in students working on their final project, this research has to be improved.
