The conditionality of the sovereignty of the psychological space of the individual by coping strategies and mechanisms of psychological protection for people from single-parent and large families

The article presents the results of an empirical study of the relationship between the sovereignty of the psychological space of personality, coping strategies and mechanisms of psychological protection of personality. Respondents who grew up in families with different numbers of children demonstrate the specific features of their coping behaviors and mechanisms of psychological protection in relation to indicators of the sovereignty of the psychological space of the individual.

Use of structural psychological protection mechanisms in dealing with youth in crisis situations

Introduction. In modern conditions, adaptation to the dynamics of tension in social reality is of particular importance. One of the adaptation systems of personality is psychological protection. The optimal functioning of the complex system of psychological protection of the individual determines the effectiveness of overcoming life difficulties, preserves the positive ideas of the individual about himself, allows him to "live" problematic situations with the preservation of mental well-being. The main function of psychological defense mechanisms is to "protect" the content of consciousness from negative, traumatic experiences, ensuring the quality of psychological security of the individual. This allows, in a situation of optimal anxiety, adequate self-esteem, an adequate level of claims, to build and support the socio-psychological adaptability of the individual to the life situation. The purpose of this article is to reveal the possibilities of using constructive mechanisms of psychological protection in working with young people in crisis situations. Materials and methods. 40 students of the Armavir State Pedagogical University (Armavir, Krasnodar Territory, Russian Federation) participated in the study of the content of the protection mechanisms used. The testing was carried out using the methodology for diagnosing the structure and strength of psychological defense (developed by L. Y. Subbotina), and the methodology for diagnosing the dominant strategy of psychological defense in communication (V.V. Boyko). The results of the study. Experimental data obtained during the study showed that in the hierarchy of the high level of protection use, the projection mechanism (22.5%), then rationalization (15%), then the denial mechanism (15%) is the most common in the experimental sample of young people. At the same time, in the response variant of 40 respondents, 18 revealed such psychological protection as aggression, 12 are characterized by peacefulness, and the remaining 10 – avoidance. And when choosing strategies to overcome difficult life situations, respondents chose by importance – orientation to the goal, process and result. Conclusion. Thus, psychological protection is a multi-valued, phenomenologically complex, systemic education that determines the nature of the manifestation of personality and behavior. Therefore, in order to work out an adequate way of responding to young people in crisis situations, it is necessary to take into account the substantial mechanism of psychological defense mechanisms. During the construction of counseling and correctional work, it is possible to use activity aimed at building an adequate strategy for overcoming difficult life situations.

Individual and psychological characteristics of medical university students with different stress resistance

The individual and psychological characteristics of 181 students with different levels of stress resistance were studied. Was revealed the dominance of the mechanisms of regression (8.77 ± 2.40 points), projection (7.03 ± 2.04 points) and rationalization (6.73 ± 1.89 points) with a lower intensity of compensation mechanisms (5.45 ± 1.68 points), denial (4.80 ± 1.71 points) and displacement (4.80 ± 2.02 points), and minimal expression of mechanisms of hypercompensation (4.42 ± 1.67 points) and substitution (4.38 ± 2.07 points). The mechanism of rationalization is more intense in students with high stress resistance, the mechanisms of regression, projection, compensation and hypercompensation — in students with moderate stress resistance, and displacement, substitution and denial — in students with weak stress resistance. The average level of resilience was found in the examinees: 25.25 ± 10.62 points, while in students with high stress resistance, the indicator corresponded to a higher than average level: 29.22 ± 6.70 points, in students with moderate stress resistance — to an average level: 24.31 ± 11.21 points, and in students with weak stress resistance — a lower than average level: 16.28 ± 12.43 points. The resilience index is inversely correlated with the stress resistance index (rS = –0.352, p = 0.001), which indicates that higher stress resistance is associated with greater resilience. The state of hardiness of medical students as a whole and of students with high and moderate stress resistance corresponds to a high level: respectively 20.10 ± 7.48 points, 23.59 ± 6.39 points and 19.37 ± 6.41 points, and in students with weak stress resistance — moderate level: 12.03 ± 6.00 points. All components of hardiness — commitment, control and challenge are most pronounced in students with high stress resistance, and least pronounced — in students with weak stress resistance. The stress resistance indicator is inversely correlated with hardiness (rS = –0.519, p = 0.000), commitment (rS = –0.464, p = 0.000), control (rS = –0.477, p = 0.000) and challenge (rS = –0.461, p = 0.000), which indicates that higher stress resistance is associated with greater hardiness. Key words: medical university students, stress resistance, psychological protection, hardiness, resilience

Siyasah qadhaiyyah’s Invention on the Right to be a Victim of Revenge Porn

This research aims to investigate the background and rights of revenge porn victims in Bandung City, while also examining Siyasah Qadhaiyah's perspective on this issue. The research method employed is qualitative descriptive analysis with an empirical juridical approach to gather and analyze data related to these cases. The findings reveal that the background of revenge porn involves easy access to technology, extortion by former partners, and legal inadequacies in combating cybercrimes. LBH Bandung emphasizes the victims' need for legal, psychological, and social support. Victim rights, including privacy, control over personal information, access to justice, and legal protection, are crucial for their recovery and are regulated in various laws such as Human Rights Law, ITE Law, Pornography Law, and the Law on Elimination of Sexual Violence. Regarding Siyasah Qadhaiyah, there is alignment with the principles of state trust and responsibility in shaping regulations according to Islamic legal principles and public welfare. Government policies in formulating the Law on Elimination of Sexual Violence and efforts in psychology, technology, law enforcement, and preventive measures, signify an orientation toward the public interest. The impact of this research lies in a better understanding of the issue of revenge porn, highlighting the need for legal and psychological protection for victims, and ensuring the fulfillment of their rights for their recovery within society. It provides a foundation for further policies that accommodate victim protection and strengthen regulations related to cybercrimes.

Theoretical and methodological analysis of the state of research on the problem of mental protection of the individual

The article presents a theoretical and methodological analysis of the state of research on the problem of psychological protection of the individual. It is noted that the system of psychological protection is formed in the general structure of personality as a certain combination of protective mechanisms. As a result of the action of defence mechanisms, a specific state of consciousness is formed, which allows the individual to maintain the harmony and balance of it`s structure. Today, most researchers consider mental defence mechanisms to be processes of personal intrapsychic adaptation that occur under the influence of subconscious processing of incoming information. To date, a great deal of material has been accumulated on this issue, in which the following points can be distinguished. First, it is the complexity of the functioning of defence mechanisms. Individuals rarely use a single defence mechanism - they usually use a complex of defence mechanisms. This complex is specific to each individual and is formed early enough in genesis. Second, there is a positive effect of defence mechanisms on personality development. Defence mechanisms are quite dynamic in themselves: through their development, integration and adaptation of the individual takes place. This is their positive influence on personality formation. Thus, defence mechanisms are widely present both in normal, healthy psychological functioning of the individual and in unhealthy, pathological ones. Their effect can be detected in every person. The third point concerns the function of defence mechanisms. They are used by an individual to relieve or prevent anxiety, to resolve emotional conflicts, to resist emotional discomfort, to prevent a return to thoughts, emotions, desires, fantasies that have previously been pushed out of consciousness because of their painfulness and unacceptability. Fourthly, mental regulation in difficult situations for the subject with the help of defence mechanisms usually occurs at the unconscious level.

RESEARCH OF MECHANISMS OF PSYCHOLOGICAL PROTECTION OF PSYCHOLOGY STUDENTS

The purpose of the work is to present the results of a theoretical and empirical study of the formation of mechanisms of psychological protection of the adolescent girls in the context of their professional training for the work of psychologists. Methodology. Sample: 54 students majoring in "Psychology", aged 17-20. All of the were female. Among them, 52% are 1st year students and 48% are 2nd year students. Methods: The Plutchik-Kellerman-Conte "Life Style Index" questionnaire (Life Style Index, LSI) was used as a diagnostic tool, which allows you to determine the severity of eight main mechanisms of psychological protection and their general tension. Results. Theoretical approaches to the definition and classification of EDs were considered, as well as an empirical study was conducted on EDs that are most characteristic of female psychology students in the first and second years of study. According to the results of the survey, data were obtained on the degree of severity of each MPZ. It was found that there was a difference between the MPZs inherent in female students in different courses of study. Very primitive protection mechanisms are more common among the first-year students than among the second-year students. During early adolescence, higher psychological defenses are just beginning to form and are not typical for this age. Starting from the age of 18, higher defense mechanisms, as dominant, are observed more often in psychology students

Emergency care for post-traumatic stress disorders complicated by psychosis

The work provides information on the emergency care for post-traumatic stress disorders complicated by psychosis. Emphasis is placed on cases of severe depression with suicidal manifestations and alcoholic complications with disorders of consciousness and psychosis. It is noted that in recent years, typical cases of post-traumatic stress disorder have often become more complicated and aggravated, because the debilitating nature of mental trauma persists in modern life due to military events. Therefore, in the clinical picture of psychogenic disorders, severe depressive states with suicidal tendencies can develop. In such cases, moodiness dominates, as well as episodes of significant melancholy that a patient experiences as torment, physical suffering. Ideas of self-accusation arise, which are closely related to the psychotraumatic situation and constitute the dominant content of a psychogenic complex. Patients blame themselves of the emerging trouble. Under the influence of such experiences, exacerbations develop with an increase in anxiety, hopelessness, suicidal thoughts with intentions and actions; sleep and appetite deteriorate, retardation, apathy, and indifference develop. Such conditions are more likely to occur in conditions of family trouble, in persons with weak personal psychological protection in a decreased tolerance to emotional stress, altered self-esteem. In other cases, patients with post-traumatic stress disorders become withdrawn, alienated, and spiteful. People can experience difficulties when communicating with others, they become irritable, sometimes aggressive. At this time, patients refuse to fulfill the traditional requirements of professional activity. In families, they become strangers, estranged from their relatives. Therefore, over time, they may lose their jobs and families. Characteristics of psychopathic behavior can predispose individuals to alcoholism and drug addiction, which in turn contribute significantly to social and micro-social maladaptation. When providing urgent care to such patients, it is necessary to be guided by the requirements of the legislation on psychiatric care. In the acute period, antidepressant, neuroleptic and sedative therapy in injections should be prescribed to quickly achieve the desired therapeutic effect, followed by switching to oral forms of basic and adjuvant therapy. Psychocorrectional measures should also be an important component of the process of further rehabilitation of patients with post-traumatic stress disorder.

Психоэндокринные корреляты стресс-реагирования курсантов ОВД с учетом фактора адаптивности к учебно-профессиональному процессу

Introduction. The relevance of studying the features of self-regulation and selfcontrol, protective mechanisms, ways of coping with stressful situations and determining the specifics of the psychoneuroendocrine correlates of the stress response of cadets of law enforcement agencies, taking into account the adaptability to the educational and professional process, is due to the high requirements for the personal and professional qualities of cadets, who are already included in the professional service activities. Methods. The following research methods were used in the study: testing, clinical laboratory, experiment. The diagnostic complex included: The Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS), the «Comprehensive assessment of stress manifestations» by Yu. V. Shcherbatykh, «Ways of Coping Questionnaire, WCQ» from S. Folkman and R. Lazarus, «The Life Style Index, LSI» questionnaire of R. Plutchik, the Grasmick Scale (Grasmicket al., 1993; adapted by V.G. Bulygina, A.M. Abdrazyakova, 2008), «Self-regulation profile questionnaire – SRPQM» by V. I. Morosanova. Results. The adaptive group is distinguished by the development of all stages of conscious regulation of behavior, which is mediated by adaptive coping strategies. Individual typological characteristics ensure high self-control. The detected significantly higher cortisol level before a stress stimulus that does not go beyond the normative level, and an increase inDehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) after a stress stimulus are associated with a low severity of signs ofstress. The maladaptive group of cadets is distinguished by the predominance of maladaptive copingstrategies, less mature forms of psychological protection that are not mediated by conscious regulatory systems. DHEA, as a key buffer hormone of stress resistance, does not perform a protective function, because its initially high background level significantly decreases after exposure to stressful stimuli.

INDICATORS OF SELF-RESTRAINT OF PERSONALITY IN THE CONDITIONS OF POST-CRISIS: THE SOCIO-PSYCHOLOGICAL ASPECT

The paper presents а comprehensive study of the phenomenon of self-restraint as a socio-psychological factor in personality development in the post-crisis conditions. The author describes the socio-psychological specificity of the tendency to self-restraint during a post-crisis and reveals the connection of self-restraint with personal characteristics, coping strategies, eco-facilitational orientation, psychological protection mechanisms, as well as selfactualisation and subjective well-being. The author also identifies levels of self-restraint of personality in the post-crisis conditions and reveals socio-psychological indicators of personality self-restraint in these conditions: positive (related to the experience of meaningfulness and satisfaction with life; recognition and adoption of one’s own resources and restrictions; confidence in the possibility of choosing a life path; personal growth and a sense of continuous self-development, etc) and negative indicators (determined by a sense of self-alienation, dissatisfaction with oneself and disappointment in oneself; absence of a clear time prospect, feeling of personal stagnation and absence of a sense of personal progress, etc).

Implications of Ecofeminism in Efforts to Preserve the Environment of Coastal Settlements

Coastal ecofeminism is women's concern for the environmental conditions of coastal settlements which are synonymous with slum settlements. The aim of this research is to analyze the implications of ecofeminism in efforts to preserve the coastal settlement environment in terms of ecological, psychological, economic, social, cultural and disaster mitigation aspects. The research object is the coastal settlements of Kendal Regency which stretches from Tawang to Kaliwungu. The research subjects are the coastal communities of Kendal Regency, communities and related agencies. This research uses descriptive qualitative phenomenological research methods to present the results of observations, interviews and field documentation. The results obtained in this research are that coastal ecofeminism needs to be supported by all parties so that there is sustainability. In the ecological, cultural and disaster mitigation aspects, ecofeminism needs to be supported so that the sustainability of coastal settlements is maintained.

Latent profiles of resilience and associations with quality of life in head and neck cancer patients undergoing proton and heavy ion therapy.

Psychological resilience is the most important psychological protection factor for cancer patients in the face of tumors and treatment. However, few studies have performed meaningful latent profile analyses of resilience to identify unobserved subgroups of head and neck cancer patients. The purpose of this study was to investigate the characteristics of resilience in head and neck cancer patients using latent profile analysis (LPA) to determine the sociodemographic and disease characteristics of each profile. In particular, we examined the association of different resilience profiles with the quality of life of head and neck cancer patients. A total of 254 head and neck cancer patients completed a demographic questionnaire, the Resilience Scale Specific to Cancer and the EOTRC QLQ-C3O, used to assess their resilience and quality of life. LPA identified three distinct profiles based on varying levels of resilience: "low resilience" group (n = 45; 17.72%), "moderate resilience" group (n = 113; 44.49%), and "high resilience" group (n = 96; 37.80%). Gender (χ2 = 6.20; p < 0.01), education level (χ2 = 1,812.59; p < 0.01), treatment regimen (χ2 = 6.32; p < 0.01), tumor stage (χ2 = 3.92; p ≤ 0.05), and initial recurrence (χ2 = 5.13; p < 0.05) were important predictors. High resilience was significantly related to higher quality of life (χ2 = 15.694; p < 0.001). Head and neck cancer patients' psychological resilience can be categorized as three resilience profiles; those who are female and have a low education level tend to have lower psychological resilience. Low resilience in patients is linked to poor role function and social function, low quality of life, and more severe pain symptoms, highlighting the need to address resilience in patient care for improved wellbeing.

RELEVANCE OF COUNTERING THE NEGATIVE INFORMATION AND PSYCHOLOGICAL IMPACT ON THE PERSONNEL OF A STATE BORDER GUARD AGENCY IN WARTIME

Based on the analysis of the events taking place in Ukraine, during which the State Border Guard Service of Ukraine performs the task of repulsing and deterring the armed aggression of the Russian Federation against Ukraine, the authors suggest that the personnel is subjected to information and psychological influences that form a certain information and psychological situation in the field of the state border security. The article substantiates the relevance of countering the negative information and psychological impact on the personnel of a state border guard agency in wartime. Information and psychological influences and military theoretical approaches to characterising their essence have been studied. The unreasonable nature of the information and psychological aggression of the Russian Federation against Ukraine has been emphasised. The necessity of improving the system of ensuring the national security of Ukraine, taking into account the specificity of the State Border Guard Service of Ukraine, has been revealed. The problematic issues of information and psychological protection of national interests at the state border have been analysed.

Toward the study of the relationship between psychological defenses and psychosocial stress factors in modern foreign science

The phenomenon of psychological defenses is considered from the standpoint of various approaches (cognitive, psychodynamic, behavioral, etc.), to understanding this phenomenon. The novelty in the research of foreign authors of the first quarter of the 21st century is traced. Empirical studies of psychological defenses within the framework of the theory of “stress vaccination”, “minority stress” in connection with “distorted perception”, social control and psychological well-being are presented. The impact of social factors (stress, depression, etc.) on the development of immature psychological defenses in a person, which reduce the level of psychological well-being, the ability to cope with mental conditions and disorders, and the level of self-esteem, is relevant. In cases of gender discrimination, alienation (avoidance) is more often chosen, while stigmatization on some other grounds leads to self-condemnation, self-doubt, and depression. Separate studies are devoted to the negative consequences of the use of immature and neurotic psychological defenses, as a result of which positive results are devalued, and the task is perceived subjectively as more difficult, while the use of mature protective mechanisms increases the mental stability of the individual. A number of modern foreign studies are devoted to understanding psychological defenses as factors of recovery or degradation, for example, the interpretation of the mechanisms underlying depression as protective (“smoke detector”), and sleepwalking and night terrors as a causes of “failure” of more mature and adaptive psychological defenses. The latest research on the trigger of time and place in its relationship with the cognitive processes of a person experiencing a psychotic episode can provide a more favorable outcome on the path of recovery. The purpose of this work was to study the current directions of research on the problem of psychological protection in foreign publications of the late 20th — first quarter of the 21st century. The research methods were the analysis and structured presentation of literary sources of foreign authors on the problem of the phenomenon of psychological defenses in modern foreign science.

Does LSD confer lasting psychological resilience? an investigation of naturalistic users experiencing job loss.

Recent studies on classic psychedelics have suggested that their use is associated with psychological strengths and resilience, thereby conferring users a type of psychological protection relative to non-users. However, this idea has been brought into question by recent findings suggesting that lifetime users of lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD) report worse mental health during stressful experiences. The current study addresses these mixed findings by examining whether LSD use prior to a stressful experience buffers against the psychological distress experienced in the wake of the stressful experience. This study draws on openly-available data from the National Survey on Drug Use and Health (2008-2019) on 5,067,553 (weighted) unemployed, job seeking individuals experiencing job loss. Using purposeful respondent exclusion criteria to establish temporal precedence of the variables under investigation, this study offers a straightforward test of whether LSD use confers psychological resilience to naturalistic users. LSD use prior to job loss was associated with a higher likelihood of severe psychological distress following job loss, regardless of whether sociodemographic variables were controlled for or not. In sum, this study fails to find evidence for LSD-conferred psychological resilience in naturalistic users in the wake of a stressful experience.

The Effectiveness of Qanun Jinayat in Preventing Sexual Violence Against Children from a Psychological Perspective

The Ministry of Women's Empowerment and Child Protection (PPPA) noted that 45% of the 14,571 cases of violence against children were cases of sexual violence. In Aceh, the UPTD-PPA noted that during 2021 there were 697 cases of sexual violence against women and children. The impact on victims of sexual violence can be said to be very heavy and prolonged. So far, the settlement of cases of violence against children, especially in Aceh, refers to the implementation of Aceh Qanun 6 of 2014 concerning the Jinayat Law. When compared with the loss of the victim, the punishment of Ta'zir Whip is still considered unable to provide a deterrent effect to the perpetrators. Therefore, this study aims to examine the effectiveness of the Qanun Jinayat in preventing cases of sexual violence against children. Overall, the Qanun Jinayat has not been able to provide psychological protection and recovery for victims of violence, especially children as victims. Apart from not being able to provide a deterrent effect to the perpetrators, the release of the perpetrators after the sentence creates further psychological trauma to victims of sexual violence.

The Experience of Using the Discounting Matrix in Patients with Eating Disorders

In the article the authors present the experience of using TA (Transactional Analysis) to identify discounting as a mechanism of psychological protection and describe the Discounting Matrix created by Ken Mellor and Eric Schiff (Sigmund) at the Cathexis Institute. The authors show their experience of using the Discounting Matrix in clinical practice. Also the article presents possible questions that might facilitate the diagnosis of levels of discounting in patients with eating disorders. The authors show the practical value of using this approach for subsequent psychotherapeutic treatment.

Criminal procedural measures to protect victims of domestic violence

Protecting the victims of crimes is an objective of the judicial bodies to avoid the risk of revictimization, thus exercising their obligation to defend the fundamental rights of the person (the right to life, the right to health and physical and mental integrity, the protection of dignity, private life, the right to free expression etc.), as protected by a series of national and international normative acts.&#x0D; The criminal procedural measures for the protection of victims of the crime of domestic violence can belong to various criminal legal or criminal procedural institutions: general protective measures, regulated in art. 113 of Criminal Procedure Code related to art. 125-130 of Criminal Procedure Code, preventive measures, accessory and complementary punishments and administrative protective measures ordered on the basis of Law 682/2002 on the protection of witnesses.&#x0D; The development of Romanian legislation to complete the spectrum of available instruments, protective measures imposed by international legislation or inspired by the legislation of other states or from the recommendations presented by international experts, is necessary and would follow the trend on a European scale to harmonize the practices of physical and psychological protection of victims.&#x0D; Thus, the capacity of the judicial bodies to obtain the willingness of the victims to cooperate with the judicial bodies will be enhanced, the risks of exposure to any danger by participating in the trial being minimized, and they will be encouraged to adopt a sincere, unhindered attitude during the hearings.

Dwangsom: Investigate the Conceptual Basis of Religious Court on Child Custody Rulings

This study aims to investigate the philosophical underpinnings of the law regarding the issue of religious court judges' decisions regarding the right to control and care for children. Various Religious Court decisions cannot be obeyed voluntarily by the party controlling the child (the Defendant) because the mother provides the finest care for children under 12. Based on the decision of the party entitled to care for the child (Plaintiff), and according to the survey, several respondents found the decision to be hollow (illusion). It is a normative study with a conceptual approach that is then descriptively and qualitatively analyzed. Initially, the application of Dwangsom in child support cases was psychological pressure on the Defendant to voluntarily carry out the provisions of the decision and psychological protection for the child, according to the results. Despite this, Dwangsom must be provided upon request. Second, a court decision grants a Dwangsom petition, effectively legalizing the practice in cases of religious child-rearing. Thirdly, the Judge's approval of the Plaintiff's request to establish Dwangsom positively affects the renewal of Islamic family law in Indonesia because numerous decisions regarding child support are not made voluntarily.

Neuropsychological and Psychophysiological Studies in Logopsychotherapy: In Memory of J.M. Glozman

The article is devoted to research in logopsychotherapy related to J.M. Glozman. Logoneurosis is a disease that affects 1–2.5 % of the population according to various sources, which is why effective methods of rehabilitation are so important. One of the effective methods is group logopsychotherapy, a technique developed for adults and adolescents by Yu.B. Nekrasova in the 1960s and subsequently monogamously improved. A special stage in scientific research in the system of family group speech therapy began with the arrival of J.M. Glozman. In the groups of family logopsychotherapy, A.A. Kiselnikov conducted a systematic inter- and multidisciplinary study of the brain mechanisms of stuttering under the guidance of J.M. Glozman and V.A. Vartanov in 2004–2006, showing the determinacy of this speech disorder by many psychological variables. It has been shown that the disintegration of left-right hemisphere interactions in the realization of mental activity can be one of the mechanisms of stuttering. It was revealed that stuttering is not an isolated (purely peripheral) speech disorder, but occurs in a syndrome of specific mnestic, neurodynamic and motor defects reflecting dysfunction of the posterior and median structures of the brain (functional blocks I and III, according to A.R. Luria (1973)), and the symptoms of dysfunction decrease during complex speech therapy. In the course of 2015–2020 studies supported by the RGNF and RFBR, which were conducted with groups of stuttering people, as well as at the Neurocorrection Center with children with learning difficulties (Glozman, Karpova, Cheburashkin-Antipov, 2018b), it was also shown that inadequate methods of psychological protection in case of violations or lack of communication skills may be associated with defects the image of verbal communication. It has been shown that the appearance of stuttering is facilitated if the child has the phenomenon of crosslaterality. Psychophysiological studies have also shown the role of functional asymmetry of the brain in the formation of the disease, and the effectiveness of logopsychotherapy for the correction of logoneurosis has also been confirmed.
