Bibliometric Analysis of the Three-Volume Labor “Development of the Concepts of Modern Psychology” (2018–2021)

The article presents a bibliometric analysis of the concepts analyzed by scientists from the Institute of Psychology of the Russian Academy of Sciences and disclosed in three volumes of the work “Development of modern concepts of psychology” (2018, 2019 and 2021). The generalization carried out for all the presented concepts made it possible to put forward a hypothesis about the existence of metaconcepts — the subject and the collective subject, which pull together the network organization of conceptual fields, setting the architecture of their system-network organization. The conducted bibliometric analysis of the concepts of three volumes showed that the mapping of concepts makes it possible to identify clusters of network organization, among which there are two, which can be conditionally designated as “individual subject” and “collective subject”. Only the morpheme “psychologist-”, outstripping all the others in frequency of occurrence. These results may support the hypothesis of the existence of “meta-concepts” and their role in the system-network organization. Comparative analysis of the concept map based on the author's keywords of publications indexed in Scopus for five years, “contraction” of terms into complexes that can be designated as individual and collective subjects could not be found, while the analysis of articles in the same database by the same authors discovered two centers in 20 years. The individual and collective subject become central concepts, with multiple connections. The question of hierarchical conceptual organization remains open due to the limited possibilities of bibliometric analysis, which does not allow revealing such relationships between concepts. Bibliometric analysis made it possible to show the network organization of modern concepts, the existence of thematic conceptual fields and leave open the question of their system-network organization.

Дифференциальные аспекты регуляторных и личностных ресурсов успеваемости учащихся с различными профилями школьной вовлеченности

Background. Presented research was carried out in the context of relevant in modern psychology differential approach to the study of the psychological characteristics ensuring students’ academic achievement. Objective. The study had its purpose to identify differential features of regulatory and personality resources of academic performance in the students with different profiles of school engagement. Sample. The sample consisted of 1056 schoolchildren of 5-11 grades. Methods. V.I. Morosanova’s “The Self-Regulation Profile of Learning Activity Questionnaire (SRPLAQ)”; “A Multidimensional School Engagement Scale” (Wang et al., 2019; Russian adaptation Fomina, Morosanova, 2020); “Big Five Questionnaire — Children version (BFQ-C)” (Russian adaptation Malykh et al., 2015); “Academic Motivation Scale - School (AMS-S)” (Gordeeva et al., 2017); “Attitude towards learning in middle and high school” (modification of «Method of diagnostic of learning motivation and emotional attitude to learning in secondary and high school») (Andreeva, Prikhozhan, 2006). Academic achievement indicator was calculated as the average score in all subjects. Results. The study revealed 4 groups with different levels of school engagement and its components. An analysis of differences in achievement resources in the identified groups showed that students with a high level of school engagement were characterized by the highest levels of self-regulation, internal academic motivation, extraversion, conscientiousness and openness to experience. The most successful in terms of academic achievement were the students with a high level of all engagement components, as well as those with a high cognitive engagement. Conclusion. The study provides empirical data on the differential features of regulatory and personality resources of academic achievement in the students with different profiles of school engagement. Further studies might be aimed at investigating the age specificity of the identified engagement profiles and individual typological features of academic achievement resources.

Медиа и социальные конфликты: теоретико- методологические вызовы междисциплинарного подхода

Currently, the study of social conflicts in the media environment is becoming increasingly relevant: large-scale mediatization has significantly changed the course and consequences of any kind of social processes, including those with conflict potential. However, as the critical analysis of the relevant scientific discourse carried out in this article shows, there are many gaps in the existing body of literature, the appearance of which is caused by both objective and subjective reasons. The insufficient level of scientific development of social conflicts in the media is associated both with the imperfection of the methodological tools and with the historically established traditions of the scientific field. The extreme heterogeneity of the “field” of this kind of research is obvious, due primarily to the phenomenological complexity of the object – social conflicts unfolding in the media environment. On the one hand, the interpretation of any kind of data on the representation of conflicts in the mass media is possible and often takes place within the framework of the institutional-normative approach. On the other hand, scientists often implement approaches that only record the influence of the media on unfolding conflicts. In this article, as part of the study of representations of social conflicts in the media, the question is raised about the need to shift the focus of research attention from media texts to the figure of a person – both as a recipient of numerous conflict messages and as a participant in any conflict media discourse, which, thanks to digital technologies, itself turns into a separate subject of media communication. In particular, it seems very fruitful to intensify research into the causes of the audience’s behavior – their making decisions that contribute to the escalation of the conflict or its relief. A separate important scientific direction is the development of memory issues at the level of personal and, further, group experience associated with certain conflict contexts, most often represented in the media. These studies can get a legitimate epistemological perspective, which is to study the trauma of participants in a mediated conflict and/or audiences/communities receiving such information through traditional or new media. The application of interdisciplinary approaches can open up original promising directions for further research. Modern media research discourse, which traditionally exists within the framework of contentanalytical methods and is focused on the study of media texts, should be supplemented by attracting the methodological achievements of modern psychology, economics, anthropology, ethnography, which will significantly enrich the research process aimed at mastering the essence of social conflicts in the media and understanding the impact of media representations of the conflict on the audience and on the modern person as a whole.

New Methodological Approaches of Modern Psychology in a Digital Society

The content of the article continues the discussion that unfolds around compiling a “map or system” of concepts developed by scientists from the Institute of Psychology of the Russian Academy of Sciences. The discussion began with a three-volume monograph by A.L. Zhuravlev and E.A. Sergienko and their articles devoted to the analysis of the main ideas outlined in it. This very article emphasizes the importance and extreme timeliness of this monograph and articles, especially relevant in a changing digital society, which has become a challenge for the methodology of both psychology and science in general. At the same time, the necessity of expanding the system of concepts with categories of other scientific schools and approaches is shown. The limitations of the network principle of constructing a system of categories, at first glance, consonant with the ideas of the digital world, are shown. It is proposed to construct preliminary system based on the methodology of postmodern (inter-discipline) with subsequent expansion to the level of trans-discipline (post-postmodernity). As an option, a combination of open gestalts of separate concepts with the “core-periphery” system, which includes the concepts of various scientific schools, is proposed.

Developing a Russian-Language Wisdom Diagnostics Questionnaire

Wisdom is an ancient concept that has acquired a new status in modern psychology. Wisdom has been proven to promote both optimal self-development and the well-being of others. However, its study requires a reliable methodological arsenal. In Russian science, work on creating methods for studying wisdom is just beginning. The subject of this study is a methodological toolkit for the empirical study of wisdom. The purpose of the study is to analyze and evaluate various methods accumulated in international psychology in recent years, as well as to create an improved version of the author’s questionnaire for diagnosing wisdom. The author discuss various classifications of methods for diagnosing wisdom proposed, in particular, by such authors as R. Sternberg, W. Staudinger J. Glück, I. Grossmann. The advantages and limitations of the available methods are considered. It should be noted that quite reasonably there are a large number of self-assessment methods (questionnaires) among them. The empirical part of the work is concerned with identifying the factor structure of the original version of the author’s questionnaire and its verification. The study involved 1,078 persons, including 621 women and 457 men aged 18-72. The respondents were residents of various Russian cities with higher or secondary specialized education. The IBM SPSS Statistics 18.0 and Amos 18.0 software packages were used for calculations. The conducted exploratory factor analysis revealed the four-factor structure of the developed wisdom diagnostics questionnaire (WDQ). The adequacy of the obtained model feature was proved by the confirmatory factor analysis. The empirical structure of the WDQ, formed from four correlating factors with high internal consistency, corresponds to the theoretical model, which includes four indicators: (1) cognitive sphere, (2) behavioral features, (3) humanistic orientation, and (4) spontaneity of the emotional sphere. In accordance with this model, a modified version of the WDQ has been developed. In practical terms, this will expand the possibilities of diagnosing and subsequently developing the individual’s abilities to find wise solutions to critical social or interpersonal problems.

Self-regulation and Tolerance for Uncertainty as Resources for the Subjective Well-being of Modern Youth: A Cross-cultural Aspect

The study of the socio-cultural specifics of subjective well-being, its determinants and resources are an important task of modern psychology. The authors present the results of an empirical study, the purpose of which is to identify the features of the relationship between conscious self-regulation and tolerance for uncertainty and subjective well-being in young people of different ethnic groups. The study involved 1435 respondents aged 18-35 from five regions of Russia (Karachay-Cherkess Republic, Kabardino-Balkarian Republic, Republic of North Ossetia - Alania, Stavropol Territory, Moscow and the Moscow Region), belonging to the dominant ethnic groups in them. The design of the empirical study included an assessment of differences in indicators of subjective well-being, tolerance or intolerance for uncertainty and conscious self-regulation among various representatives of ethnocultural groups, as well as an analysis of the relationship between these indicators, in particular, using structural modeling. The results obtained confirm the influence of the cultural context of income on the level of subjective well-being. Less prosperous, as they consider themselves, are young people from ethnic groups where the socio-economic situation of the region does not provide opportunities for self-realization of the individual. The study has revealed two types of regulatory profiles: (1) a profile with a harmonious structure with a relatively pronounced general level of self-regulation, which is observed among the Russian respondents from Moscow and the Moscow region; and (2) a relatively accentuated profile, characteristic of Karachays, Circassians, Ossetians, and Russians (from the Stavropol Territory), expressed in the desire for a clear programming of their actions, their compliance with certain norms. It has been established that young people from the southern republics are less tolerant of uncertainty: they tend to solve problems in a situation of uncertainty in a ‘ready-made’ algorithm determined by traditions. Finally, the authors reveal the structure of relationships between the predictors of subjective well-being, which are presented in the form of models. The central place in these models belongs to conscious self-regulation and its basic cognitive-regulatory processes and personal-regulatory properties, which, both directly and indirectly, due to the mediator role of tolerance or intolerance for uncertainty, affect the subjective well-being of young people. The results of the study contribute to a deeper understanding of the ethno-regional specificity of the predictors of the subjective well-being of today’s youth and can serve as a basis for assisting in constructing interaction with representatives of other cultures and developing strategies for actively overcoming difficulties in a situation of uncertainty.

Psychological Aspects of Using Digital Devices for the Development of Older Preschoolers with Signs of Giftedness

Revealing children’s abilities and talents in the context of digitalization is one of the urgent problems of modern psychology. The first signs of giftedness may appear early, already at the stage of preschool childhood, when its development largely depends on the conditions of the microenvironment, especially in the family. Digitalization processes set a new direction for the development of the system of family education and training of preschoolers, causing the emergence of both new opportunities and new risks in discovering children’s talents. This is a complex area of scientific research, which still remains little explored. The study was aimed at identifying the psychological characteristics of using digital devices (tablets/computers) as components of a family educational microenvironment for the development of older preschoolers with signs of general giftedness. In accordance with the conceptual provisions put forward by A.M. Matyushkin, giftedness was considered as a prerequisite for the development of a creative personality. The study involved 200 children of senior preschool age (Mage = 6.7, SD = 0.307, including 98 boys) and their parents (mostly mothers - 166). The method for diagnosing intellectual abilities (MEDIA) was used. Intellectual and creative activity as well as creative thinking of the children was studied during a diagnostic game lesson using structured observation and expert assessments. The parents of the preschoolers were surveyed using a specially designed questionnaire containing questions about the use of a tablet/computer (frequency, time, programs/games) at home for the development their children as well as questions about their interests and hobbies. The use of diagnostic techniques made it possible to single out a group (N = 24) of children with signs of giftedness among the preschoolers as well as a group of their peers for subsequent comparative analysis (their intellectual and creative abilities were less pronounced). It was found that almost all the children with signs of giftedness (95.8%), like their peers, had experience of using a tablet/computer at home for developmental purposes. The frequency of using digital devices by the preschoolers with signs of giftedness was less than that of their peers. With the observed variety of developing computer programs/games used, their total number was less in the group of the gifted preschoolers compared to the group of their peers. Partial correspondence of digital content to the interests and hobbies of the children was revealed. Most often, when choosing computer programs/games for them, their parents pursued the goal of preparing them for school. It was recognized as necessary to provide psychological assistance to the parents of the preschoolers in solving the issues of using digital devices to develop children’s abilities and talents. The results of the study can be used to develop practical recommendations based on an integrated approach to the disclosure of giftedness at the stage of preschool childhood, taking into account the digitalization of the family microenvironment.

Positive Psychology in Islamic Counseling Perspective; Analysis of The Trilogy of Life Dimensions

Positive Psychology in the last two decades is considered one of the most productive findings in modern psychology. Because compared to some of the previous approaches, positive psychology emphasises the positive emotional side of humans. Meanwhile, the last method discussed more pathological issues; stress, depression, and others by way of healing. In this paper, we will see the concept of positive psychology from an Islamic counselling perspective. Islamic counselling as an analysis is not intended to discredit positive psychology but to add and enrich scientific insights into Islamic counselling. The method used is library research, with deductive-inductive characteristics in the data analysis. The results of this study indicate that Islamic counselling puts forward the values ​​of religiosity and spirituality without leaving the practical side. The trilogy that forms the basis of the positive psychology concept is a pleasant life, an engaged life, and the meaningful life in line with the goals of Islamic counselling. It's just that deepening in Islamic counselling on the concept of true happiness is not only when individuals can solve their problems or become optimistic individuals but understand the purpose of creating humans as God's creatures.

The Emotion of Sadness in Modern Psychology and Classical Islamic Thought: The Example of Kindi

Psikolojinin önemli konularından olan duygu konusuyla ilgili geçmişten günümüze çok sayıda çalışma yapılmıştır. Yapılan çalışmaların çoğunluğunda duygular sınıflandırılmış ve üzüntü duygusu temel duygular arasında kabul edilmiştir. Duygu konusu, psikolojinin yanı sıra farklı disiplinlere mensup kişilerin de ilgisini çekmiştir. Bu noktada, ilk İslam filozofu olarak kabul edilen Ebû Yûsuf Ya’kub b. İshâk b. Es-Sabbâh el-Kindî de duygu konusu ve bilhassa üzüntü duygusuyla yakından ilgilenmiştir. Kindî, üzüntü duygusuyla ilgili müstakil bir eser dahi kaleme almıştır. Bu çalışmada üzüntü duygusunun Kindî’nin düşünce sistemindeki ve modern psikolojideki yeri karşılaştırmalı bir şekilde incelenmektedir. Çalışmanın yöntemi olarak nitel araştırma yöntemi seçilmiştir. Çalışmanın verileri doküman incelemesi tekniği kullanılarak elde edilmiştir. Araştırmada durum çalışması deseni kullanılmıştır. Çalışmada öncelikle duygu konusu ve üzüntü duygusu psikolojik açıdan ele alınmaktadır. Akabinde Kindî’nin düşünce sisteminde duygu konusu ve üzüntü duygusu üzerinde durulmakta ve onun üzüntü duygusundan kurtulmak için önerdiği çözüm yollarına yer verilmektedir. Gerçekleştirilen inceleme sonucunda duyguların tasnifi, üzüntü duygusunun diğer duygular arasındaki konumu, üzüntünün sebepleri ve insan hayatına etkileri açısından modern psikolojinin verileri ile Kindî’nin görüşlerinin büyük oranda örtüştüğü tespit edilmiştir. Bu bağlamda, duygu konusunun ve üzüntü duygusunun Batı menşeli bir bilim dalı olan psikolojide ve ilk İslam filozofu olan Kindî’nin düşünce sisteminde oldukça benzer şekilde değerlendirildiği görülmektedir.

Existentials of the Digital age. Ideas about the Renewal of Psychological Dimensions

This article delves into the question on the harmony of modern psychology in the “digital” era. In light of the trends towards digitalization, we consider the problem of clarifying the systemic foundations of psychological dimensions (psychological scale). With the “digital” era the new dimensions in psychology are a form of reflection on the current imperative of transition to a new world order. We proposed a coordinate system based on the axes of complementarity of existentials of the “digitized world”: Axis of horizons (orders, “spaces”) “Digitalization for a person – a Human for digitalization” and Axis of poles (rotations, sequences, “times”) “Respect for the old – creation new.” The purpose of the study is to revise and clarify the assumptions about the future of psychology with the intentions of responding to the imperatives of the new, expected and created era that are symbolized by the metaphor of digitalization. Methodology and Research: System-anthropological psychology. Identification of correspondences, complementary relationships that correspond to the development trend and the form of presence. Based on the experience of generalizations, useful hypotheses of an orientational nature. In conclusion, the imperative for the emerging psychology is to clarify how presence and being correspond, with presence having priority. The trinity of fictitiousness, authenticity and personal responsibility is necessary to move to as a solution to the dilemma posed by just fictitiousness – authenticity. The challenge of the new world is not to choose a “good” digitalization and not to choose a “bad” one. Not “Either-Or”, but “And-And”. We should find new psychological dimensions to imitate life timely and be present in life timely. For a new reality, we need “new psychological organs” to differentiate.

Personality According to Personality Psychology

Personality psychology is a scientific study that aims to understand individual personalities as individual beings who have unique traits with other people. The uniqueness can be seen from the behavior, thoughts, feelings, and motivations that exist within each person. Nevertheless, these differences can also show certain patterns which then have similarities with other people. Modern psychology separates God from human subjective experience. Subjective-religious experience is still seen as unscientific. In a scientific perspective, it must meet logical-rational-empirical standards. As the heir to modernism, psychology is also under the scientific method as other sciences. Therefore, the development of modern psychology is supported by three main pillars. First, psychology is universal, second, based on empirical methods, third, research as a locomotive of progress. The method in this paper is literature review. Literature review is an activity of collecting scientific data, especially in the form of theories, methods, or research that has been done before, both in the form of books, document manuscripts, journals, and others that are already in the library. We found that there are similarities in meaning between character and personality according to modern psychology

SELF-AGGRESSION IN DELINQUENT TEENAGERS

This paper aims to to approach the issue of self-aggression among juvenile delinquents due to the actuality of the phenomenon, the life risk, but also the social and mental health implications of their reintegration into society. Our study aimed to provide an overview of accentuated personality traits and relevant aspects of the psychological history of 40 young delinquents who are institutionalized, some of whom have a psychiatric history. 
 We also observed the correlation of these traits with autolytic acts and illicit acts. The motivation of the study comes from the need to know adolescents who exhibit self-aggressive acts in order to intervene with programs to prevent suicide and juvenile delinquency.

Is psychological science progressing? Explained variance in PsycINFO articles during the period 1956 to 2022.

We aimed to numerically assess the progress of modern psychological science. Average explained variance in 1565 included articles was 42.8 percent, and this was constant during 1956 to 2022. We explored whether this could be explained by a combination of methodological conventions with the semantic properties of the involved variables. Using latent semantic analysis (LSA) on a random sample of 50 studies from the 1,565, we were able to replicate the possible semantic factor structures of 205 constructs reported in the corresponding articles. We argue that the methodological conventions pertaining to factor structures will lock the possible explained variance within mathematical constraints that will make most statistics cluster around 40 percent explained variance. Hypotheses with close to 100 percent semantic truth value will never be part of any assumed empirical study. Nor will hypotheses approaching zero truth value. Hypotheses with around 40 percent truth value will probably be experienced as empirical and plausible and, consequently, as good candidates for psychological research. Therefore, to the extent that the findings were indeed produced by semantic structures, they could have been known without collecting data. Finally, we try to explain why psychology had to abandon an individual, causal method and switch to studying whether associations among variables at the group level differ from chance. Psychological processes take place in indefinitely complex and irreversibly changing contexts. The prevalent research paradigm seems bound to producing theoretical statements that explain each other to around 40%. Any theoretical progress would need to address and transcend this barrier.

Revival of psychology in former Czechoslovakia and the contemporary Czech Republic after the fall of Totalitarian communist regimes.

After the general societal and political change in November 1989 in Czechoslovakia, the subject "History of Psychology" became the stable component of curriculum of studying psychology at the Department of Psychology of Faculty of Arts of Charles University in Prague. The author of this paper has taught "History of Psychology" in Czech since 1998 for more than 20 years all students of psychology and he is teaching this subject the students of ERASMUS+ program from whole Europe, studying at Charles University in Prague, now. Indivisible part of the curriculum is represented by the history of Czechoslovak and Czech psychology. In References, the most important publications in the field of history of Czechoslovak and Czech psychology are presented.

Mode of Understanding the Terms "Concept" and "Folklore Concept" in Modern Humanities

The urgency of the study is explained by the importance of a thorough study of typology and classification of concepts in terms of modern cognitive linguistics, linguoculturology, history, ethnolinguistics, philosophy and psychology, including folklore concept as a set of signs that form a semiotic model of national and cultural experience and allow in-depth study of cultural processes in the light of historical and national factors. The aim of the article is to try to comprehend the concept and folklore concept from the standpoint of modern researchers working in various fields of humanities, to analyse, compare the main aspects of studying the problem, considering industry specific features. The main research method is a theoretical method that involves analysis, synthesis, generalisation of the theoretical basis on this topic, and the subject of study – the term concept as a tool of scientific analysis, mental construct and unit of consciousness. The article identifies the main structural and classification features of concepts, diversity of views on the problem of folklore concept from the standpoint of scholars from different fields of humanities and representatives of different cultural strata, the specific features of Ukrainian folklore are considered in detail on the example of texts of thoughts, historical songs, songs-chronicles, wedding songs, carols, Christmas carols, ballads. The materials presented in this paper will help to clarify the specific features and breadth of the mode of understanding certain cultural, folklore and historical phenomena at the intersection of various humanities and social sciences.

An integrated approach for mental health assessment using emotion analysis and scales

AbstractDepression is a prominent cause of mental illness, which could primarily increase early death. It is possible that this is the root of suicidal ideation, and it causes severe impairment in daily life. By detecting human face traits, artificial intelligence (AI) has cleared the road for predicting human emotions. This predictive technique will be used to conduct a preliminary assessment of depression. Prediction is accomplished using a mixture of four modules namely Facial Emotion Recognition (FER), Scales Questionnaire, Speech Emotion Recognition (SER), and Doctor Chat. FER2013 dataset is used for the FER module, while for speech‐based recognition, RAVDESS, TESS, SAVEE, and CREMA‐D are collectively used. To improve the accuracy of the FER, the people in the given image will be fed into a Face API created with TensorFlow JS, which will eventually be given to the proposed model that will recognize human faces in the image. For SER, a python library known as Librosa is used for extracting audio features and it will be fed to the proposed model. The scales module of the app has questionnaires that can be answered, and the result can be generated based on the scores obtained using established scales used in modern psychology such as the HAM‐D, YMRS etc., Though deep learning can predict emotions, the user may choose to speak with a real doctor about the issues to clear up any doubts. The application has a Doctor Chat module, which is essentially a chat bot for interacting with a doctor. Using this module, the users can talk, exchange files, and have their questions answered. The accuracy of FER is 91% whereas for SER, it is 82% on the test sets. The proposed approach produces the highest accuracy for the benchmark dataset. These four modules will work together to produce a homogenous depression report.

Личностная зрелость: модель исследования в контексте событийного подхода

Introduction. The problem of personal maturity, its criteria and mechanisms of achievement, acts as one of the significant and urgent problems in modern psychological science. A large number of scientific papers are devoted to the interpretation and definition of this concept, the search for its content and structural elements. Theoretical analysis. Based on the systematization of theoretical material, the author builds a model for the analysis of personal maturity (in the context of the event approach). In this model, there are blocks that can act as parameters of personal maturity: event block, reflexive block, semantic block, behavioral block. Conclusion. Conclusions are drawn that significant personality events can act as possible initiators of the formation of personal maturity, and are defined in the event block of the study. The mechanisms of experiencing a crisis event, forming unity with reflexive processes, constitute (a reflexive block of research). Comprehension of the situation, construction of new meanings (semantic block of research). Adaptation to new conditions, situational activity (behavioral research unit). The author believes that the data obtained can be used for a more detailed analysis of personal maturity, the conditions for its actualization, as well as for the construction of models of empirical research of personal maturity.

Духовная психология С. Л. Франка в контексте современных задач развития российской социальной психологии

The introduction highlights the points of contact between the ideas of S.L. Frank’s spiritual psychology and the theme of “generational survival”, developed within the framework of metamodernism and metapsychology, and the relevance of spiritual psychology for solving the problems facing modern Russian social psychology. The theoretical analysis is devoted to understanding the essence of the phenomenon of spirituality, the connection of the spiritual and socio-psychological in the works of S. L. Frank, the development of S. L. Frank’s ideas in the order approach to the socio-psychological study of culture, the essence of metamodern psychology and its socio-psychological aspects. The correspondence of the ideas of metamodernism and metapsychology to the ideas of spiritual psychology of S. L. Frank is considered. It is shown that the basis for independent development at the present stage are the realities of Russian social reality and the experience of predecessors (in particular, S. L. Frank), the restoration of the intellectual tradition of studying the spiritual experience of the “survival” of generations and overcoming difficulties as a theoretical and methodological basis. In conclusion conclusions are drawn about the relevance of Frank spiritual psychology for solving the problems of the development of Russian social psychology in the context of a metamodern worldview; that modern Russian social psychology faces the need to determine its own development paths without relying on Western social psychology. The analysis of the spiritual aspects of social phenomena and the experience of “survival”, the oscillation method brings metamodern psychology and methodology closer to Frank’s spiritual psychology, despite semantic discrepancies.

ILMU JIWA FALSAFI BERBASIS AL-QUR’AN SEBAGAI SUATU DISIPLIN ILMU

Studying multiple dimensions of the human self requires an integration-interconnection between rational, scriptural, Sufistic, and empirical disciplines of knowledge. Many muslim psychologists have long developed an integrative study known as Islamic Psychology. Such integration pivots on Modern Psychology as an empirical discipline (science) which absorbs various Islamic studies on human soul, mind, behavior, and the like, so that there is still room for integration focused on philosophical and scriptural disciplines. This paper contains the initial ideas of constructing a discipline of knowledge on the human self that pivots on the integration between Islamic Philosophy and Quranic Exegesis, which is called Quran-Based Philosophical Psychology. The findings of this paper include the formulation of a number of principles as the Basic Structure of Knowledge underlying the Quran-Based Philosophical Psychology, which is based on the idea of Logic about the components of knowledge and the idea of the Philosophy of Science about the relationship between disciplines and their social aspects.

The age changes of educational and cognitive interests of the pupils IX–XI grades

In this article is described the actual problem of the dynamics of the development of educational and cognitive pupils’ interests during the last 3 years of their studying at school. The author underlines that the interests are the main thing of the people’s behaviour and activity. They stimulate and help to overcome some difficulties of life. They also help to reach the goal of life. Among interests great importance belongs to educational and cognitive interests of people. Learning conformities and conditions for forming and development of these interests are very important and actual for modern psychology. Forming and development of educational and cognitive pupils’ interests are not only taking into account the possibities of different subjects but psychologically correct forming of educational and cognitive process with the possibities between the pupils and teachers. Analyzing the literature from psychology and pedagogic must be admitted that the scientists do not always pay enough attention to describe the dynamics in the development of educational and cognitive interests of the pupils during the last 3 years of their studying at school. As a result, we have one-sided picture in the process of educational and cognitive pupils’ interests. In this article is mentioned that with the help of this experiment about educational and cognitive interests of the pupils of IX–XI grades at school Number 7 in Nizhyn is underlined that educational and cognitive interests are typical for schoolleavers. It is also mentioned that educational and cognitive interests become more understandable with years (when we compare with the pupils of the 9-th grade). At this time the positive attitude to the educational and cognitive activity become stronger.
