The preparedness of future primary school teacher for professional activity in physical culture: the structural-component analysis

In modern pedagogical science, the study of the preparedness of future specialists for professional activity remains relevant. The research of many scientists has been devoted to the study of this problem in recent years. Revealing the essence of the state of preparedness of future primary school teachers for professional activity in physical culture, some authors consider it as a personal characteristic of a specialist, others as functional. Modern higher school pedagogy is faced with an important theoretical and practical task, which concerns improving the process of professional development of the personality of a teacher in general and a primary school teacher, in particular, to work on physical education. Ways and methods of forming preparedness for teacher activity among students of the pedagogical university are a complex socio-psychological phenomenon. It combines a complex of individual and psychological qualities of the personality, a certain system of professional and pedagogical knowledge, abilities, and skills. The teacher’s preparedness for work is considered a form of connection of a vocational and pedagogical orientation with the worldview, life attitudes, and spiritual values, as well as with the ethical, strong-willed, and emotional spheres. A significant drawback in this field of knowledge and practice continues to be the weak connection of theory with practice in the process of training in IHE. References to the experience of schools in the study of theory, the orientation to knowledge in the process of pedagogical practice don’t solve the problem yet, we are studying. We need special work of IHE, which would help to understand the theoretical and practical preparedness of students for pedagogical activity.

Levels and factors of compatibility and efficiency in the management team

The article examines the level and factors of compatibility and efficiency in management teams, reveals the concept of "psychological compatibility", emphasizes that group compatibility is an integral characteristic of a group, which manifests itself in the ability of its members to coordinate actions and optimize relationships in various activities. In addition, compatibility in a team is a set of individual qualities of its members, ensuring the coherence and efficiency of their activities. The levels and types of compatibility, modern diagnostic techniques for studying and measuring interpersonal compatibility are also analysed.
 When developing the problem of compatibility and operation in group activities, the studied mental phenomena cannot be fully disclosed without sufficient knowledge of the mechanisms of individual and group behaviour of interacting people, patterns of stereotypes of behaviour in different situations, habits, attitudes, values, without studying moods, feelings, emotions, psychological climate, motives, interpersonal relationships, individual psychological characteristics, etc. Based on the study of these characteristics and their consideration and should be staffed working groups and teams. Emphasis is placed on the fact that the study of psychological compatibility is truly relevant for the development of socio-psychological knowledge and for practical application in the field of team building.
 The creation of a complete theory of psychological compatibility requires further serious methodological work, improvement of the conceptual apparatus, methods of studying this important socio-psychological phenomenon, integration of existing approaches and generalization of the facts already obtained.

Investigating the Mediating Role of Procrastination in the Relationship between Positive and Negative Perfectionism and Mobile Phone Addiction in Gifted Students.

Objective: Adolescence is a critical period in terms of development and education, in which there are numbers of high-risk behaviors that can negative effects on personal and educational life. One of these high-risk behaviors is mobile phone addiction that is a sociopsychological phenomenon, and the lack of control in the use of this technology by students can cause damage to various aspects of their personal and educational lives. The aim of the present study was to investigate the mediating role of procrastination in the relationship between positive and negative perfectionism and addiction to mobile phone in gifted students. Method : This was a descriptive and correlational study in which 200 gifted students from gifted students’ high school of Meshghinshahr were selected using cluster sampling in 2020. Tri-Shot Perfectionism questionnaires, Tuckman Procrastination Scale, and Savari Mobile Phone Addiction questionnaire were applied to collect data. Descriptive statistics, correlation matrix, and path analysis (Structural Model) were used to analyze data. Results: The findings revealed positive and negative perfectionism was not directly related to cell phone addiction. However, positive perfectionism through procrastination meditation had a negative and indirect relationship with mobile phone addiction (β = -0.18), and negative perfectionism through procrastination meditation had a positive and indirect relationship with mobile phone addiction (β = 0.17). In other words, procrastination is a complete mediation in the relationship between negative and positive perfectionism and cell phone addiction in students (β = 0.29). Conclusion: The results emphasized the effect of procrastination on the relationship between positive and negative perfectionism and mobile phone addiction in gifted students. Therefore, these findings can help school and rehabilitation counselors to prepare programs for reducing students' addictive and avoidant behaviors.

Formation of interethnic tolerance of yuth

The article is devoted to the problems of formation of interethnic tolerance in young people under the influence of socio-psychological factors of modern society. Modern scientific approaches to the study of tolerance as a socio-psychological phenomenon are considered. Interethnic tolerance as a factor of conflict-free existence in society is a necessary and sufficient condition for the formation of social unity, mature social consciousness, the principles of nonviolent solution of social problems and a balanced approach to creating social reality. Tolerance at the individual level is the ability to perceive without aggression thoughts that differ from their own, as well as – the behavior and lifestyle of others. Tolerance of other people's way of life, behavior, customs, feelings, ideas, beliefs is a condition for the stability and unity of societies, especially those that are not homogeneous in religious, ethnic or other social dimensions. The existence of such a phenomenon as ethnic stereotype is fully explained by the desire of human consciousness to facilitate understanding of society, to simplify the perception of knowledge about social reality. In order to determine the impact of ethnic stereotypes on the culture of interethnic interaction in modern multinational society, it is necessary to first formulate their role in society. Ethnic stereotypes are primarily cultural formations that are natural and exist as long as there are peoples and ethnic communities. First of all, it should be noted that ethnic stereotype as a regulatory element of ethnic identity performs three important functions: cognitive, communicative and the function of protecting a positive ethnic identity. A significant contribution to the formation of ethnic tolerance in Ukrainian society belongs to civil society institutions. It is the institutionalization of democratic citizenship that is manifested in the active conscious participation of activists of public organizations in identifying ethnic stereotypes and promoting ethnic tolerance. Since tolerance is based on acceptance, respect and fair understanding of the diversity of ethnic groups and peoples, forms of expression and manifestations of individuality and uniqueness of each person, this should be facilitated by knowledge, communication, lack of censorship, freedom of belief and conscience.

Integration of underage orphans in conflict with the law into society

Among the many acute socio-psychological problems of our time, the integration of orphaned children into society is perhaps the most difficult and painful. This problem is reflected in the pages of the press, in news releases, it is constantly discussed in state and local government bodies at different levels. However, it is precisely orphanhood as a socio-psychological phenomenon that appeared not today, it existed and probably will always exist. The purpose of the study is to analyze the causes of conflict with the law of minor orphans and the possibilities of their integration into society. When working on this article, scientific research methods were used, such as the analysis of relevant scientific literature on the research problem, the sociological method, and the formal-logical method. The article deals with significant problems that prevent the integration of orphans into society, as well as the basics of innovative work with children in orphanages as a factor of their successful integration into society. The authors reveal the main directions of work with young people in conflict with the law, as well as the peculiarities of the formation of negative legal socialization of orphans as the main factor of illegal behavior of boarding school graduates, and substantiate the basic principles of building a model of integration of young people in conflict with the law. The scientific novelty of the work is manifested in the authors’ attempt to substantiate, based on the study of scientific literature, the relationship of social attitudes adopted in Russian society with the most constructive solution to the problem of orphanhood, including the need to assist orphaned children who have come into conflict with the law, primarily related to their psychological support.

Манипулятивные приемы СМИ как инструмент управления массами

The greatest minds of antiquity laid the foundation for the science of persuasion, that is, an ability to persuade the listener to a given point of view. The sophists were particularly successful in this. The works of the classics show how complex the process of persuasion is. To convince means to make you believe that you are right. The relevance of the study of this topic is due to the rapidly increasing influence of the media on the modern society formation and management of the masses. Taking into account a fairly large number of publications, the problem is not studied in detail, despite the fact that technologies are rapidly developing. The steady interest of researchers in this problem is determined by its significance in society. The object of the study is manipulation in management. The subject of the study is media techniques as a tool for mass management. Method of argumentation is citation of references. The objectives of the study are to characterize the manipulative techniques of the media; describe management technologies; classify manipulation tools. The purpose of the study is to scientifically substantiate the effectiveness of using manipulative media technologies as a management tools and to consider the practical implementation’s forms of this phenomenon. The research methodology is based on the principle of objectivity, universal connection and development. Research methods. The research was based on traditional general scientific methods; methods of induction, deduction, and interpretation have been actively used. Conclusion. Manipulation appears as a socio-psychological phenomenon aimed at a person. At the same time, the tools of manipulation are ideas, forms, techniques, and methods. Manipulative influence in the framework of mass communication takes the form of commercial and political propaganda. The media sets the tone in public discussions and disputes. The influence of mass media on the modern society functioning is rapidly increasing. Manipulative technologies used to influence public consciousness are very diverse. They provide a great variety of opportunities for the formation and strengthening of values, attitudes, and behaviors. For the purposes of communicative influence, the media actively use traditional technologies and create new ones that allow opening up great opportunities for manipulation. This phenomenon is the object of the scientists’ close attention. It is concluded that the media use a wide range of manipulative technologies: both traditional and innovative. They allow you to influence both the individual and the society as a whole in order to control the public consciousness and introduction of specified behaviors into it. The development of manipulative media techniques allows the authorities to introduce the necessary attitudes to the masses

ВІЙСЬКОВО-ПЕДАГОГІЧНА СПРЯМОВАНІСТЬ ПІДГОТОВКИ ВІЙСЬКОВИХ ФАХІВЦІВ

The military-pedagogical process is a complex socio-psychological phenomenon. Its essence lies in purposeful, motivated, substantive organizational and educational activities of all its subjects. This activity is aimed at preparing the military specialists who are able to successfully perform their functional duties both in peacetime and in modern war conditions. The strength of the country's defense capability and combat readiness in modern conditions is ensured by a high level of intellectual potential of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. This potential is being formed as a set of potentials of highly qualified personnel of military specialists. Today the task of reforming military education is not limited only to structural and functional transformations of the educational base and restructuring of the educational process. It is necessary to create an environment (a system of higher military education) for constant spiritual and professional improvement of the individual and motivation to achieve a high level of military professionalism. Access of educational institutions to modern information technologies contributed to the emergence of interactive forms of learning and transformation of the subject of learning from a passive participant and its active involvement in the learning process. Given the development of digital technologies and the difficult state in which Ukraine found itself due to military action and the negative epidemiological situation, it is appropriate to create a system of higher military education using the subject-activity approach and the introduction of forms of distance learning. It is proposed to direct the military-pedagogical training of specialists along six lines. The assessment of the level of conformity of a serviceman's actual professional qualities with the requirements to the occupied military position is important in the professional-psychological selection in the Armed Forces. That is why it is expedient to develop a model of recreation of intellectual potential of servicemen and a methodology for evaluating the general level of intellectual resources of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. In the basis of construction of such model it is offered to put directions of military-pedagogical training of military specialists together with professionally important criteria of evaluation of recreating of moral-psychological qualities of servicemen of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

Benchmarking model for culture of urban traffic-safety management in India: interpretive structural modeling framework

PurposeResearchers have studied processes of improving road traffic-safety culture by explicitly evaluating the socio-psychological phenomenon of traffic-risk. The implicit traffic-system cues play an important role in explaining urban traffic-culture. This paper aims to ascertain an interpretive framework of the alternative processes of road traffic safety culture is antecedent to promote traffic-safety behaviour in Indian urban context. Subsequently, the authors discussed the reasons for those relationships exists.Design/methodology/approachFour experts of the urban traffic-safety domain participated in total interpretive structural modelling (TISM) study by completing an interpretive consensus-driven questionnaire. The drafted interpretive model was evaluated for road users proactive action orientation about the traffic-safety decision.FindingsThe evolved directed graph (digraph) of the culture of urban traffic-safety management was a serial three-mediator model. The model argued: In the presence of traffic-risk cues, people may become apprised to safety goals that initiate traffic-safety action. Consequently, expectancy-value evaluation motivates the continuation of traffic-safety intention that may lead to the implementation of adaptation plan (volitional control), thus habituating road users to traffic-safety management choice.Practical implicationsThe modellers of traffic psychology may empirically estimate and test for the quality criteria to ascertain the applicability of the proposed mechanism of urban traffic-safety culture. The decision-makers should note the importance of arousal of emotions regarding traffic-risk, reduce the impact of maladaptive motivations and recursively improve control over safety actions for promoting safety interventions.Originality/valueThe authors attempted to induce an interpretive model of urban traffic-safety culture that might augment extant discussion regarding how and why people behave in an urban traffic system.

ГЕРМЕНЕВТИКА АКАДЕМІЧНОЇ ДОБРОЧЕСНОСТІ В КОНТЕКСТІ ДУХОВНОЇ ПАРАДИГМИ ПСИХОЛОГІЇ

В умовах проведення освітніх реформ з орієнтацією на європейські стандарти виникає необхідність осмислення фундаментальних цінностей, на яких повинен базуватися і реалізовуватися освітній процес. У статті висвітлено результати дослідження академічної доброчесності як конгломерату духовних цінностей, що презентують особистісну позицію представника академічної спільноти в освітньому просторі. Мета дослідження: розкрити зміст феномена академічної доброчесності в контексті духовної парадигми психології. Завдання дослідження: 1) означити методологічні положення духовної парадигми психології; 2) розкрити зміст ціннісних спектрів академічної доброчесності в контексті духовної парадигми психології. Для розкриття змісту феномена академічної доброчесності в контексті духовної парадигми психології були використані теоретичні методи – аналіз, синтез, порівняння, узагальнення і систематизація теоретичних підходів і поглядів до проблеми академічної доброчесності, психологічна герменевтика. Висхідним положенням аналізу академічної доброчесності в контексті духовної парадигми психології є розгляд особистості представника академічної спільноти як ноологічної сутності, що характеризується потенційною універсальністю, творчо-вольовою спрямованістю, іманентною здатністю до вибору добра та заперечення зла, онтологічною налаштованістю до самопізнання та самовизначення заради утвердження трансцендентних духовних цінностей. Духовні цінності, які становлять суть академічної доброчесності, актуалізуються в свідомості студента, викладача (відповідно до конкретної ситуації вибору в умовах освітнього процесу), проходять щоразу «внутрішнє переосмислення» крізь призму деонтичного вибору та прийняття відповідальності за його здійснення, за наслідки, після чого відбувається реалізація цих цінностей у вчинковий спосіб.

Mobbing process as a psychosocial risk factor in educational groups

The socio-psychological phenomenon of mobbing in educational groups requires a detailed study and identification of new factors and dependencies. The purpose of this study is to analyze statistical information, identify the features of the formation and development of the mobbing process in the student team, and develop relevant techniques for timely response at any stage of the mobbing process. The article discusses the results of research by domestic and foreign authors on the problems of mobbing. A brief overview of the history of the term is given. Participants are identified and the main prerequisites for the formation of the mobbing process are identified. In accordance with the stages of formation and development of mobbing as a socio-psychological phenomenon, the stages in the structure of the mobbing process in educational groups are defined. A diagram of the relationship between objects and subjects of the mobbing process is presented. Based on the analysis, a standard version of the actions of a potential victim of mobbing has been developed. The article considers the mobbing process as a factor that negatively affects the moral and psychological climate of educational groups. The lack of a psychologically healthy climate in the educational team leads to a reluctance to work in a team and a possible decrease in the effectiveness of perception of educational material and involvement in the educational process. The authors note the need to use techniques for timely response at any stage of the mobbing process. An attempt is made to develop tools for potential victims of the mobbing process in educational groups in order to resolve a conflict situation at any stage of the process.

THE SOCIAL-PSYCHOLOGICAL FACTORS AND LEVELS OF FORMATION OF STUDENTS’ ECONOMIC SELF-DETERMINATION

The article analyses theoretically and methodologically the influencing factors and the levels of formation of students’ economic self-determination in the period of social changes. Self-determination is a socio-psychological phenomenon formed on basic psychological processes and aimed at finding by an individual of their own way of life to meet their needs. The most important factors of students’ economic self-determination are their financial well-being, formation of personality, professional self-determination and, only then, formation of their social identity. Economic self-determination is considered by students as self-determination in the economic environment with the purpose to achieve an optimal position in the system of economic relations (labour, exchange, property, distribution, etc.). Students’ economic self-determination is considered by us as self-determination in the economic environment with the following purposes: to achieve an optimal position in the system of economic relations (labour, exchange, property, distributive, etc.); to have an attitude to socio-economic conditions and their dynamics; to develop their own ideas about life meaning and life goals, life principles, values; to outline own rights (borders, boundaries); to perform self-analysis of one's own expectations and potential opportunities to meet them. Students’ economic self-determination is the step-by-step formation of their economic consciousness in socially close environment (family, friends, etc.) based on everyday knowledge on economic reality, examples of parental behaviour and their personal values. The main factors influencing the formation of students’ economic self-determination are: personal qualities, value orientations, socio-demographic, socio-economic, economic, socio-cultural factors, as well as an individual’s attitude to other people and material values, to time and money, etc. We have also found that economic self-determination, as one of the factors of professional self-determination, influences young people’s choice of a self-sufficiency strategy. Modern youth chooses legitimate ways of economic self-sufficiency and considers entrepreneurial activities as one of the ways to achieve self-sufficiency, and already hired jobs as temporary employment after receipt appropriate education to gain experience or strengthen knowledge and skills. Thus, analyzing concepts presented by deterrent scientists and summarizing the reviewed literature, we consider economic self-determination as a process of achieving by an individual of their own position in economic relations, which allow them to realize optimally their economic interests in the existing socio-economic conditions and their own understanding of life meaning, goals, principles, values, their rights and expectations.

ПСИХОЛОГІЧНИЙ АНАЛІЗ ПРОБЛЕМИ ПРОФЕСІЙНОЇ ІДЕНТИЧНОСТІ ВІЙСЬКОВИХ КЕРІВНИКІВ

The article analyzes the concept of "identity" and reveals the semantic characteristics of the professional identity of a military leader. It is considered that the problem of research of identity is a socio-psychological phenomenon. The professional identity is defined as a certain personal construct, which includes: a system of ideas about themselves and their position in the profession; acceptance of its goals, functions, roles and methods of implementation; attitude to their profession, significant values; readiness for professional activity; comparing to the professional group, acceptance of its goals, values, professional roles and professional culture. The peculiarity of “the leaders’ professional identity formation in risky conditions” has been studied.The purpose of the article is an empirical study of the professional identity of military leaders at the stage of professional training.The methodological basis of the study were theories of psychoanalytic approach, the basics of cognitive approach, symbolic interactionism, semantically oriented approach, the concepts of self-consciousness and self-determination.The military organization is considered as a factor of the environment that lays down the psychological characteristics of a particular individual (entity) of government. The expediency of using a semantically oriented approach in the study of the phenomenon of identity is substantiated. The identification characteristics of military leaders are empirically studied, which reflect the transformation of the officer's professional identity in terms of professional training, expressed in aspects of activity, perspective and reflective “ego”, which significantly affects the self-determination of the subject, his/her values, ideas and motives. The importance of reflection for the professional realization of a military leader is noted as a significant characteristic that affects the productivity of his relationship.Conclusion. Prospects for further research in this area may be to identify mechanisms and ways of forming a professional identity in terms of vocational training.

АНАЛІЗ СОЦІАЛЬНО-ПСИХОЛОГІЧНИХ АСПЕКТІВ МОТИВАЦІЇ ПЕРСОНАЛУ МЕТАЛУРГІЙНОГО ПІДПРИЄМСТВА

One of the main tasks of the enterprise’s head is to create an interest among employees in the work results and quality. Motivation as a socio-psychological phenomenon and one of the management functions is a key link in the formation of an approach to defining employee behavior. Currently, non-material motivation is gaining the greatest weight in society, since it is the impetus for personnel development, which in turn becomes one of the enterprise’s highest priority goals. The metallurgical industry presents special requirements for personnel. The purpose of the article is to analyze the existing social and psychological aspects of non-material motivation of the enterprise personnel labor activity, as well as to develop measures for its improvement on the example of PJSK «Poltava GOK». The theoretical foundations of material and non-material motivation were considered. It has been established that the non-material motivation of employees pursues the same goals as the introduction of material types of incentives by the enterprise. It is social and psychological methods that relate to non-material incentives, which increases their role in influencing working personnel. The study results of the personnel non-material motivation system, which were carried out by questioning the employees of the enterprise’s economic department were presented. During the survey, the most work motivating factors were identified and ranked according to the most important socio-psychological aspects: income level, the possibility of professional growth and job interestingness. To assess the effectiveness of material and non-material (social and psychological) incentives for personnel, were used data on indicators of average wages dynamics, the number and structure of working personnel. The analysis result was the designation of the need to improve the intangible motivation system in the context of the socio-psychological component, as well as its basis on the policy of increasing the influence of non-monetary incentives. In order to solve this problem, a system of additional socio-psychological methods of motivating metallurgical enterprise’s employees was developed.

Polarization and Fluctuations in Signed Social Networks

Much recent research on social networks has focused on the modeling and analysis of how opinions evolve as a function of interpersonal relationships. It is also of great interest to model and understand the implications of friendly and antagonistic relationships. In this article, we propose a new, simple and intuitive model that incorporates the socio-psychological phenomenon of the boomerang effect in opinion dynamics. We establish that, under certain conditions on the structure of the signed network that corresponds to the so-called structural balance property, the opinions in the network polarize. Compared to other models in the literature, our model displays a richer and perhaps more intuitive behavior of the opinions when the social network does not satisfy structural balance. In particular, we analyze signed networks in which the opinions show persistent fluctuations (including the case of the so-called clustering balance).

A MODEL FOR ASSESSING COMMUNICATIVE COMPETENCIES 
 IN THE PROCESS OF OBTAINING A PSYCHOLOGICAL EDUCATION

The article discusses the problems of the competency-based approach through the prism of the formation of personal competencies of students. The question is posed of the possibility of operationaliz-ing the methods of quantitative and qualitative assessment of an educational product through differen-tiated, comparable indicators of the level of development of specific competencies. As a sphere of perso-nality, important for the professional activity of the future specialist-psychologist, communicative compe-tence is chosen. A model of the structure of communicative competencies is introduced, which make up a set of professionally important qualities of a specialist, as well as tools for monitoring them in the process of studying at a university. A method for assessing the specific communicative abilities of students, their dynamics, as well as development methods in the context of educational and vocational training is proposed. The use of the model for the diagnosis and support of students receiving a psychological education in adulthood is justified. The proposed model meets the following requirements: 1) through the structure of communication reflects the components of communicative competence, taking into account the possibility of influencing them with a view to development; 2) contains scientifically based tools to make the necessary measurements; 3) allows you to track the dynamics of the communicative development of the individual at different stages of educational and vocational training, including, including initial measurement (“at the entrance”) and final (“at the exit”). The model was tested within the framework of the “Workshop on the Psychology of Communication” discipline, the main purpose of which is to form a systematic idea of students about communication as a socio-psychological phenomenon and about themselves as a subject of communication through familiarity with the methods of studying and developing the personality’s communicative qualities based on fundamental and applied knowledge on the psychology of communication.

Europeanising Eurasia beyond the Boundaries of European Union: Extimity in Gender as an Export Product

Extimity as a socio-psychological phenomenon that was created and matured in European political discourse and social programmes, during the last ten-fifteen years became a product of exportation from European Union to the whole of Eurasia. It is widely depicted by media and many politicians as a part of the worldwide gender equality movement, but in fact it represents a political means of pre-designed formation, attribution, consolidation and transformation of gender social roles and statuses in Eurasia. Such use of extimity is performed according to common mould that presumably reflects a centripetal force which has to additionally unify Eurasian population across a common idea shared by the majority, ultimately the idea of the global unified humanity. In the instrumental aspect, extimity is associated with the re-transmission of neo-liberal gender communicative stereotypes and behaviour models in non-European parts of Eurasia. In the paper, we analyse social and political implications and consequences of such extimity exportation from EU to the rest of Eurasia.
