Own Point Of View Research Articles

Адаптация студентов к современной образовательной среде вуза

This article deals with the psychological aspect of the difficulties of students' socio-psychological adaptation, which is closely connected with the conditions of digital education at Pskov State University, and presents the author's own point of view on the problem of adaptation.
 
 One of the most important tasks of the adaptation process for first-year students is personal selfdetermination. The author of this article notes that adaptation is able to control the student's body, thereby increasing or decreasing the body's endurance. This is influenced by many factors and phenomena, which are discussed in the article to reveal the main problems of student adaptation. Adaptation of a first-year student to life and study at the university should be successful, which is the basis for further development of the student as a future specialist. The results of the survey of students with tendencies of successful and unsuccessful adaptation concerning external, social and academic difficulties which they faced during the first semester of study at the university are analyzed.

Promoting Students' Higher Order Thinking Skills (HOTS) through Classroom English Debate in Critical Speaking Course at IAIN Bone Students

The analyzing, evaluating and creating skill that are drilled during debate practice have been shown to support students' critical thinking skill. It proves how debate inspires students to analyze a situation from their own point of view.

The Capitalization of the Authentic Documents in the Educational Activity of the Primary Cycle

Written, audio or audiovisual documents that were not designed to be used for pedagogical purposes, authentic documents are used by teachers in the teaching activity of different subjects, at different moments/stages of the lesson, aiming at the achievement of the proposed operational objectives, the interaction between pupils, the formulation and expression by them of their own points of view, the teaching staff being the mediator of the discussions. The use of this type of documents gives pupils an authentic picture of the subject in question, contributing to the development of a favorable attitude towards it, positively motivating them to search for similar information, helping them to overcome the limits of the textbook, making them become autonomous in learning. At the same time, the presence of authentic documents makes the lessons more dynamic, encouraging horizontal communication, presupposing on the part of the teaching staff the identification and use of the most effective activities in order to make full use of them. In this article we aim to present to what extent authentic documents are integrated into the didactic activity, which are these, how they are exploited in the primary cycle both by primary cycle teachers/teachers and by physical education teachers and sport, information obtained from the answers formulated by them to the questions in the applied questionnaire.

Emlékezetes pillanatok az Interpol elmúlt harminc évéből

Aim: The aim of the study is to present, from the author’s own point of view and based on his personal experience, the most significant changes in INTERPOL over the last 30 years in Hungary.Methodology: In addition to the relevant literature and legislation, the author draws on his own lived experience to describe the past three decades of the organization's ‘close-up view of history’.Findings: Looking at the history of INTERPOL, it can be seen that, in addition to the spirit of internationalism, regionalism and regional/continental cooperation have always played a crucial role in practice. In the beginning, partly due to a lack of technical development, this was a restraining force in day-to-day operations. However, INTERPOL has taken advantage of the opportunities offered by technical-digital developments to recognise the regionality of the way in which smwaller entities are recognised and operate, thus contributing to the effectiveness of global INTERPOL. In Europe, this is represented by the INTERPOL European Commission. Likewise, an important means of enhancing effectiveness is INTERPOL’s cooperation with other regional law enforcement organisations – in the case of Europe, this is the close working relationship that has been established between INTERPOL and Europol. All this could not be achieved without the added value through the National Centre Bureaus of the Member States, which in the case of Hungary is the International Law Enforcement Cooperation Centre.Value: As a result of this overview, the reader can see the structure of the domestic system, its links with the international organisation, the relevant EU agencies and the structure and role of the committees of strategic importance.

Sociology of childhood evolution: in the world and in Ukraine

The sociology of childhood, as a separate branch of sociology, emerged about forty years ago. Until then, children and childhood were considered only within the framework of the sociology of family or the sociology of age. In the article, I consider the following questions: what exactly led to the emergence of a new field? How and under the influence of what changed the traditional attitude of social science to children and childhood during the twentieth century. What is the New sociology of childhood and Childhood Studies and how do the views of their proponents differ from traditional ones? What principles unite researchers of the new sociology of childhood and how is the sociology of childhood developing in Ukraine?The childhood phenomenon, despite all the achievements and development of social sciences, is still difficult to define. During the twentieth century, the perception of childhood and the attitude of researchers toward children changed. Sociologists of childhood no longer perceive children as passive, innocent, firmly embedded in the family, and “non-yet-adults” whose main goal is to properly socialize. Now, according to sociologists, children are perceived as active and unique social actors that need to be studied intersectionally, in the context of gender, class, ethnicity, and outside the family. The perception of the child has changed – from a usual future adult in the 1960s to a real member of society that can influence the world of adults in the 1980s. All this happened due to the influence of interactionists schools in sociology, researchers of subcultures and age groups, as well as social movements for women’s rights and civil rights. The new sociology of childhood and childhood studies has set new goals – to explore children’s practices as the activities of socially active agents, using methods that take into account age characteristics, but do not reduce children’s ability to reflect and formulate their own point of view. During the last 40 years, the followers of the new paradigm actively created a new scientific community and tried to change the attitude towards children and childhood not only within the social sciences but also outside of it. They partially succeeded, but many of the announced goals remained unfulfilled. Ukraine and Ukrainian researchers of childhood are taking the first confident steps in this field. We need more translations of world classics into Ukrainian language, as well as the results of original Ukrainian researchers into English. As well as we need more students enrolled in relevant programs and funding for the National Center for Childhood Studies.

Linguistic Features of Multilingual Hate Speech in the Online “Bardagulan”

"Bardagulan" is the slang used in the Philippines to describe an online dispute wherein Filipino netizens trade hate speech. The term was derived from the Tagalog word "Bardagul" which means conflict and is now employed to denote differing viewpoints (Yaneza, 2022). During the 2022 Presidential Election, a variety of hate speech was heard and seen, prompting the researcher to determine the linguistic characteristics of hate speech on Philippine social media. To demonstrate the complexity of hate speech in the Philippines, the researcher devised a research question centered on various linguistic features such as form, type, social aggression, impoliteness strategies, and the structure of hate speech to improve the understanding of how hate speech functions in actual online social discourse. It is crucial that all social media users possess knowledge regarding the linguistic features that distinguish hate speech, so that they may effectively report unpleasant remarks posted online. Multimodality and content analysis were also utilized to analyze 190 specimens of hate speech since the researcher considers hate speech as a multimodal phenomenon. This study suggests that the distinctive linguistic characteristics of multilingual "Bardagulan" hate speech contribute to the challenges encountered in eradicating hatred within the realm of Philippine social media. It was found that social media users in the Philippines employ grammatical and linguistic innovations to conceal profanity and circumvent digital content censorship. Moreover, the primary results indicate that behavior of Filipino internet users displayed via impoliteness in words, images, and emojis promote the proliferation of hate speech since they have a propensity to engage in confrontational discourse, with an aim to persuade the audience and to defend their own points of view.

The perspective of the other

Abstract The central question of the paper is whether visual perception serves as a grounding cognitive act for experiencing and reflecting on the other in elegiac poetry. I assume that elegy has a cultural scheme in which the lyric subject can see the environment not only from his own point of view but also from the perspective of the other, and this mental contextualization has reoccurring linguistic patterns (e.g.,the expressions of retrospection/looking backwards, or looking to the natural environment from different points of view) in elegiac tradition. For testing the assumption, I use corpus-based analysing methods: in a quantitative analysis a specific research corpus is built from canonical Hungarian elegies, and it is analysed with Lancsbox with the aim of identifying the characteristic linguistic construction of visual perception. I explore the distribution and the collocational patterns of the Hungarian verbs lát ‘see’, néz ‘look’ and figyel ‘watch’ in the elegy corpus, and keyword analysis is made with the use of a reference corpus built from Hungarian odes.

When epidemics become narrative, women get bogged down in scripts?

In the article, I follow the fate of women - heroines of the pandemic non-fiction literature in Poland, in order to verify the thesis that when women's experiences, such as pandemics or epidemics, become narratives, they themselves get stuck in women's narrative scripts and their variants characteristic of a specific culture. Treating storytelling, in the vein of anthropologists, as a primarily cultural practice, I wonder whether and how the attribution and/or adoption of stories about their own experiences by the heroines of the pandemic and epidemic, enables them to transgress the boundaries of scripts harmful to them, not invalidating their agency, but loudly manifesting their own point of view, different from the one established in culture.

Teacher moves for supporting student reasoning in mathematics instruction

AbstractInterest in teachers' moves to classroom discourse has started to increase since how teachers respond to students' thinking influences students' learning. The purpose of this study was to investigate the moves used by one sixth grade mathematics teacher at a public middle school in Turkey to support student reasoning in mathematics instruction and their influence on classroom discourse. Six 80‐min lessons were analyzed with particular attention to how the teacher elicits, responds to, facilitates, and extends student reasoning. The results revealed that teacher moves mainly included low‐potential moves in all categories. The teacher mainly tried to elicit student answers in the lessons and aimed to facilitate their understanding through questioning. He also tended to confirm students' answers and re‐represent their thoughts to the class, occasionally adding further information. However, the results showed that the teacher had a dominant role in classroom interactions. Besides, from time to time, the teacher did not focus on student responses and postpone the student reactions. However, the teacher moves that limit student contribution, such as ignoring students' answers and insisting on their own points of view, reduce the depth of classroom interactions and student understanding. In general, the teacher's ability to support student reasoning and facilitate productive classroom discourse was not sufficient.

Paul Macpherson, saviour of the Scots College Rome

The Pontifical Scots College in Rome was founded in 1600 by Pope Clement VIII and still continues its work of training priests for the Catholic Church in Scotland. Paul Macpherson served as the Agent in Rome of the Scottish bishops from 1792 to 1798 and then again from 1800 to 1827. He was also the first Scottish secular priest to be College Rector. Macpherson returned in 1800 with the mission to recover and preserve the College for the work it eventually resumed in 1820. The episode has been treated in previous histories of the Scottish Mission and its Roman College; this article, based largely on draft (‘scroll’) letters of Macpherson in the Scots College archives (SCAR 28/1), gives a close account, from his own point of view, of the extreme difficulties and disappointments he had to face in his struggle to keep his beloved college in existence.

Some deficiencies of regulation and promotion of the concept of material liability in employment relations

The interest of researching the concept of material liability in labor law relations is generated by the uncertainty of its legal nature, which is due to the diversity of opinions regarding its belonging to the branch of law. On this occasion, the present study is initiated from the consultation of the Moldovan doctrinal position on this segment, with the extension of the study to the examination of the doctrine of the neighboring states, with the subsequent statement of one’s own opinion regarding the legal essence of liability in the matter of labor relations. Also, the paper presents its own points of view on the appropriateness of considering material liability as a form of legal liability attributed to labor law, with the submission of rigorous arguments. The central purpose of this work is to clarify the legal nature of the liability of the parties to the employment contract, but also to show its place among the forms of legal liability. As secondary objectives are those of elucidating the problems related to the material liability of the employer for the damage caused to the employee, namely by researching the concept of material liability as an integral part of legal liability, the general conditions for the appearance of material liability, material liability for damage caused by the activity that creates an increased danger for those around, the identification of the types of material liability and their delimitation, the grounds for holding the employer to material liability for the damage caused to the employee. Keywords: liability, individual employment contract, employment relations, employer.

"Intelligence, Social and Emotional Intelligence: Correlation of Concepts in Modern Psychology "

The purpose of our article is to carry out an analysis of the author’s research on social intelligence according to Structural and Functional Approach; describe our researches of Social Intelligence; to propose own definition of “emotional intelligence”; to show the correlation of concepts “intelligence”, “social intelligence” and “emotional intelligence” in Modern Psychology. Methods of the research. The following theoretical methods of the research were used to solve the tasks formulated in the article: the categorical method, structural and functional methods, the methods of the analysis, systematization, modeling and generalization. The results of the research. We think, that social intelligence is a system of cognitive characteristics of the individual. It consists of three basic components: social-perceptive abilities, social imagination and social technique of communication. So, the effectiveness of subject-subject communication largely depends on the formation of social intelligence. Social intelligence is considered as a certain cognitive component of communicative competence, which is defined as the ability of the individual to accept the position, point of view of another person, to predict his/her behavior, to solve effectively various problems arising between subjects of dialogical interaction. Conclusions. We believe that emotional intelligence is defined as a set of non-cognitive abilities, competencies or skills that affect a person’s ability to face challenges in the external environment, the emotional intelligence should be attributed to the empathic aspect of social intelligence. That is, we will consider emotional intelligence as a component of social intelligence. Let’s justify our own point of view. In this context, emotional intelligence is a set of general personality’s abilities, interconnected four skills, such as: awareness of one’s own emotions, the ability to determine what emotion the person feels at a given moment in time, to determine what basic emotions consists of this understanding; the ability to manage one’s own emotions (to change the intensity of emotions), to determine the source and the cause of their occurrence, the degree of usefulness; understanding other people’s emotions, determining emotional states by their verbal and non-verbal manifestations; management of other people’s emotions, providing purposeful action on emotions. At the same time, we’d like to make a generalization regarding the definition of emotional intelligence. Emotional intelligence, as we see, is the ability of an individual to perceive, evaluate and express emotions adequately; the individual’s ability to generate feelings when they contribute to thinking, to understand emotions and knowledge related to these emotions, the individual’s ability to regulate emotions, contributing to one’s own emotional and intellectual growth.

The works of Professor A. S. Smykalin on canon law and state-confessional relations: ad deliberandum.

The object of the study is the state-confessional relations in Russia at the present stage. The subject of the research is state (secular) legal acts regulating the legal status of religious organizations, the norms of canonical (church) law, as well as the works of Professor A. S. Smykalin, in which the scientist explores the stated topics and gives a legal assessment of both public relations in which the state and religious organizations interact, and intra-church legal phenomena (internal the institutions of religious organizations). In preparing the work, the author sought to follow the principles of scientific objectivity and consistency, primarily using the formal legal method in analyzing the norms of secular legislation and the comparative method in comparing secular legislation and canonical (ecclesiastical) law. Since a significant part of the professor's work is interdisciplinary (at the intersection of jurisprudence and history), historical and functional methods of cognition were also used. The scientific novelty of the undertaken research is the theoretical understanding of modern state-confessional relations through the prism of the works of Professor A. S. Smykalin. The reference ad deliberandum ("to reflection") in the title of the article is made in order to formulate the author's opinion on particular issues. The author considered it possible not to limit himself to references to the research results of a prominent scientist, but also to express his own point of view on the phenomena under consideration, focusing on the most problematic points.

PECULIARITIES OF INTERPERSONAL COMMUNICATION ADOLESCENTS IN SOCIAL NETWORKS

Purpose. The article is devoted to the identification of peculiarities of interpersonal communication of adolescents in the Internet for further development of the program of development of skills of safe and productive interpersonal communication of adolescents in social networks.

Zhmyrko); determination of the level of communication of adolescents (questionnaire of interpersonal relations A.A. Rukavishnikov and questionnaire K.S. Zhmyrko). Zhmyrko); determining the level of communicative tolerance in the process of interpersonal interaction (the method of diagnostics of communicative tolerance V.V. Boyko); establishing the main orientations in the communication of schoolchildren (the method of diagnostics of motivational orientations in interpersonal communications I.D. Ladanov, V.A. Urazaeva).
 Results. The results obtained during the diagnostic survey allow us to conclude that adolescents, due to their psychological and personal characteristics, unformed culture of communication in social networks, inability to express their opinions and defend their own point of view, create situations of conflict in social networks and provoke cyberbullying.

The materials of the study can be used in the work of psychological service of educational organisation and contribute to the development of skills of effective and safe communication in social networks among adolescents, formation of resistance to the negative impact of virtual environment.

Gender Comparative Analysis of College Students’ Consoling Speech Act

In order to analyze the gender comparison of consoling speech acts of college students, this paper uses questionnaire survey to investigate 10 male college students and 10 female college students. A total of 4 situations were set up in the questionnaire, and participants were required to fill in the answers according to their own point of view. According to Sekiyama's classification of consoling speech acts, all the answers are divided into suggestion, positive encouragement, negative encouragement, offer of help, shift of responsibility, and others. The conclusions reached were: male and female usually use not a single way of consoling, they combine general consoling speech act and specific consoling speech act. Females tend to be more emotional when consoling others and prefer to comfort others from the psychological level. Male, on the other hand, are more matter-of-fact and rational when it comes to comforting others, and are more likely to use their suggestions to solve problems.

PORTRAYAL OF HISTORY, SOCIETY, AND CULTURE IN SELECTED AUTOBIOGRAPHIES

Different angles of human life and related things to humans have been discussed in autobiographies from the start. Facts and figures of society have been portrayed through the eyes of an autobiography writer. The historians had their own point of view, and a common man or elite class man had his own point of view. The question is what is true? Perhaps the autobiographies speak the truth or the biography. Who tells the true phenomenon of the culture and norms of the society of his times? The basic requirements are authenticity, accuracy, and validity for the history. This question has been raised and discussed in this article. The true picture of society and culture must be portrayed in history. Autobiography is a source of history.
