THE CONCEPT OF TIME IN THE ANCIENT TURKIC WRITTEN MONUMENTS

This article discusses the concept of «time» in the language image of the world, which took place in the ancient Turkic written monument. As one of the most ancient categories of Universal, time has been studied quite actively in linguistics. The authors gave an overview of the classification of «time» made by foreign and domestic scientists in philosophical, psychological, cultural, social, literary and linguistic terms. The factological material of the study was the texts of the written monuments «Kultegin», «Bilge Kagan» and «Kull-Chor». Language means indicating that the concept of «time» in ancient Turkic written monuments is directly related to historical and political events, and the semantic types «cyclic time», «linear time» are defined in the semantic line of «time». Noting the close connection of the concept of «time» with the concept of «human age», the researchers make a comparative analysis based on the texts of the monuments of Kultegin, Bilge Kagan and Kul-Chor. It is concluded that the «human age» changes due to differences in ideology, political structure, social and cultural values. In addition, it was found that concept of «human age» occupies the largest place and is associated with the concept of «war». The article mentions the fact that the expressions of the concept of «time» with referential pronouns are abundant in ancient Turkic written monuments, that is, they are characteristic of deixist language units of «time».

СЕМАНТИКА И ПРАГМАТИКА СОВРЕМЕННЫХ МЕДИА В АСПЕКТЕ МАНИПУЛЯТИВНОГО ВОЗДЕЙСТВИЯ НА ПОКОЛЕНИЕ Z

Pragmalinguistic analysis of media texts with a destructive component (violence, suicide, revenge, reprisals) is presented. A feature of the media content under study is: 1) the presence of a digital communicator – a digital platform (blog, messenger, social network, video, etc.) for broadcasting and replicating the communication process by the participants themselves (representatives of generation Z); 2) the place and role of a digital communicator in the implementation of a given destructive behavioral model. The transformation of axiosphere was revealed: there were axiological shifts in the conceptual field "LIFE-DEATH". Due to it we were able to identify the potential activity of the destructive vector of the homo digitalis behavioral model. The "axiologeme" is interpreted by us as a speech signal of hidden influence. In the text it acts as a lexical unit with code evaluation, which forms positive, neutral or negative associations: death (negative in psychological and emotional terms; neutral (logical conclusion of the life way) from the point of view of Christian morality in objective reality, neutral in virtual reality, as it is possible to reboot and positive (receiving bonuses: likes, discussions, comments). The development of influence plans ("positive-approving, neutral-indifferent or negativedisapproving") for the described events allowed us to identify the author's assessment of the media text with a destructive component. Positive-approving plan – 36.4%, negative-disapproving - 46.1%, and neutral-indifferent – 18.5%. These data reflect the prospects for the preservation/non-preservation of the axiosphere of Russian linguaculture.

Novel Interdisciplinary Enhanced Recovery after Surgery Protocol Implementation in Paediatric Orthopaedics.

The enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) protocol is not routine management in paediatric orthopaedics. Cultural differences or assumptions about the financing of medical care in different countries encourage creative adaptation of general assumptions in local communities. The aim of this study was to compare the quality of the perioperative period before and after the introduction of an interdisciplinary protocol adopted to organisational conditions. A group of 4098 children were included in the "before-after" observational study. The data of 1553 patients (BEFORE group) were analysed in terms of compliance with the enhanced recovery after surgery protocol guidelines and the time and cost of hospitalisation over a 20-month period. A novel interdisciplinary protocol was developed, including an education and training app called BackOnFeet (BOF®), standardised hospital management, and the introduction of methods novel to Poland (intraoperative nerve cryoanalgesia in children). A further 2545 patients (AFTER group) were reassessed over a period of 20 months. It was found that the groups differed in hospitalisation time (p < 0.001), type of procedures, and percentage ratio of costs incurred to revenue generated. The usefulness of the BOF® app as an effective educational tool was demonstrated. The optimisation of perioperative management in paediatric orthopaedics based on novel tools and the interdisciplinary ERAS protocol is possible and brings tangible benefits in psychological, organisational, and financial terms.

Self-actualization and subjectivity in young men looking for a new job

The study subject is self-actualization and subjectivity in men looking for work. The purpose of this research is to identify the features of their self-actualization and subjectivity. Such methods of psychodiagnostics as the “SAT” technique by E. Shostrom (adapted by Yu.E. Aleshina et al.); the “URSL” test by M.A. Shchukina were used. Taking into account the main results of the study, the author came to the conclusion that the sample as a whole revealed problematic self-actualization and a fairly high overall level of subjectivity. In 83% of respondents, self-actualization was revealed only by contact. The proportion of men who recognize the values of a self-actualizing personality was 34%. A direct close connection between self-actualization and subjectivity has been established. The field of application of the found results is the social psychology of personality (the data received are important for assessing the socio-psychological readiness of men to promptly solve the problem of employment using intrapersonal resources). Mentioning the prospects of the study, it should be advisable to perform a comparative analysis of data by gender. The results obtained are valuable for practical social psychologists in terms of helping young men who find it difficult to realize their intentions to find a new job due to problematic self-actualization and insufficient subjectivity.

Generating Sustainable Organizational Commitment of Indonesian Lecturers: The Role of Psychological Contract Through Spiritual Perspective

Objective: Research on EER (employee-employer relationship) has always attracted the attention of researchers in the field of Human Resources Management. Every organization and company always strive to be at the forefront and get employees who are competent in their respective fields besides having high and sustainable commitment to their organization. One of the antecedents of sustainable organizational commitment is the fulfilment of the psychological contract. Unfortunately, the psychological contracts that have been studied so far have only considered mundane transactional and relational aspects. In fact, worldly exchanges will not last forever. Need to review the psychological contract from a spiritual perspective which rewards are more lasting and can be felt in this world and the hereafter. No doubt, these exchanges are only believed by people who believe in the afterlife or people who have religion and belief in God. This study aims to investigate the indicators of the psychological contract from a spiritual perspective, namely from an Islamic perspective. The psychological contract from an Islamic perspective in this study becomes a mediating variable between authentic leadership and sustainable organizational commitment. In addition, trust in leaders is also used as a moderating variable between authentic leadership and spiritual psychological contracts. Methods: Respondents in this study were Muslim lecturers at Muhammadiyah universities accredited A throughout Indonesia. There are 6 universities that come across the requirements located in the cities of Yogyakarta, Malang (East Java), Surakarta (Central Java), Jakarta, and Medan (North Sumatra). The questionnaire was distributed via Google form using a 6-point Likert scale and processed using structural equation modeling (SEM) with the Partial Least Squares (Smart PLS) 3.0 technique. The number of respondents who filled out the questionnaire completely was 121. Results: This research produced several findings, i.e.: (1). Authentic leadership has a positive effect on fulfilling the spiritual psychological contract, (2). The spiritual psychological contract affects organizational commitment, (3). Trust (in the leader) has a positive effect on fulfilling the spiritual psychological contract, (4). The spiritual psychological contract becomes a mediator of the positive influence of authentic leadership on organizational commitment, (5). The spiritual psychological contract also mediates the effect of trust (in the leader) on organizational commitment. (6) authentic leadership has no direct effect on organizational commitment, and (7). Trust (in the leader) does not moderate the effect of authentic leadership on the spiritual psychological contract. Originality: This study adds one of the 2 previously known dimensions (transactional and relational), namely the liturgical dimension. This study also explores the dimensions of the spiritual psychological contract, although the term used still adopts the two previous psychological contract terms. However, the sources that are referred to all dimensions come from the verses of the Al Quran and Al Hadith which are the main sources of Islamic law. This research was conducted at Muhammadiyah universities which requires all members to prioritize Islamic da'wah, without neglecting financial needs, but financial needs are not the main goal. Implication: An authentic leader is characterized by listening to the opinions of subordinates, being a role model for his subordinates, being willing to guide and motivate, being aware of his own qualities, wanting to convey information on the achievements of the organization and his team, as well as strategies to achieve their goals, and respect the differences within the institution, will bring about subordinates' desire to fulfill their spiritual psychological contract. Likewise, leaders who want to recognize the superiority of subordinates, give flexibility in choosing work projects, give challenging assignments, facilitate growth, and intend to build relationships, as contained in indicators of trust in the leader, will be able to increase the desire of subordinates to fulfill their spiritual psychological contract. Spiritual psychological contracts are a novelty in this study, especially with the addition of one dimension in this variable, namely the liturgical contract. Authentic leadership and trust in the leader are able to arouse followers to fulfil their spiritual psychological contract which also has an impact on increasing their organizational commitment in sustainable manner.

Development and evaluation of the psychometric properties of a digital questionnaire for the self-management of health and well-being in the postpartum period

BackgroundDespite the fact that the Global Strategy for Women’s, Children’s and Adolescents’ Health (2016–2030) recognises the special importance of care for women during the postpartum period, thus highlighting the need to identify and measure any condition that may affect the welfare of pregnant women in any way, this is one of the most neglected stages in the health system. Given the absence in our area of global, efficient instruments, the objective of this study was to design a complete, specific measurement tool with good metric qualities in digital format for the evaluation of self-reported health and well-being during the puerperium, to conform to what was proposed by the ICHOM.MethodsA cross-sectional study was carried out to evaluate the psychometric characteristics of a digital measurement tool. The development of the tool was carried out in 4 steps, following the recommendations of the International Test Commission. It was tested on 280 puerperas attending primary healthcare appointments in the Basque Healthcare System (Osakidetza), and they did the newly created survey, answering all the questions that had been selected as the gold standard. The average age of the women was 34.93 (SD = 4.80). The analysis of the psychometric characteristics was based on mixed procedures of expert judgment (a focus group of healthcare professionals, an item evaluation questionnaire and interviews with users) and quantitative evaluations (EFA, CFA, and correlation with gold standard, ordinal alpha and McDonald’s omega).ResultsThe final version of the tool comprised 99 items that evaluate functional state, incontinence, sexuality, breastfeeding, adaptation to the role of mother and mental health, and all of these questions can be used globally or partially. It was found that the scores were valid and reliable, which gives metric guarantees for using the tool in our area. ConclusionsThe use of this comprehensive concise tool with good psychometric properties will allow women to take stock of their situation, assess if they have the necessary resources, in psychological and social terms, and work together with midwives and other healthcare professionals on the most deficient areas.

After-Death Communication: Issues of Nondisclosure and Implications for Treatment

After-death communication (ADC) is the phenomenon of perceiving spontaneous and direct contact by a deceased loved one. Evidence suggests that ADC is a widespread human experience, particularly for bereaved individuals. Many people who have ADCs report them to be comforting, suggesting therapeutic potential. However, many individuals in Western cultures choose not to disclose their ADCs to mental health providers, citing fears of pathologization, disenfranchisement due to gender expectations, negative ADC encounters, or minimization by clinicians. For others, ADCs are deeply personal and people may keep the experiences to themselves for fear that providers might explain the ADCs away by framing them in purely psychological terms. As such, there is a paucity of literature on how therapists should best approach the topic of ADC with clients. The following narrative review offers clinical interview and assessment strategies from theoretical papers and empirical studies to guide this process. Clinicians are encouraged to self-reflect on their natural inclinations around ADC, assess general psychological functioning, normalize and validate the ADC experience, assess client feelings and explanations, and inquire about spiritual beliefs. Clinicians can also help clients to explore the meaning and personal significance of their ADCs as well as clients’ perceived relationships with the deceased.

Constructing "Burnout": A Critical Discourse Analysis of Burnout in Postgraduate Medical Education.

In 1974, Dr. Herbert Freudenberger coined the term burnout. With the creation of the Maslach Burnout Inventory in 1984, burnout went from a pop psychology term to a highly studied phenomenon in medicine. Exponential growth in studies of burnout culminated in its adoption into the International Classification of Diseases-11 in 2022. Yet, despite increased awareness and efforts aimed at addressing burnout in medicine, many surveys report burnout rates have increased among trainees. The authors aimed to identify different discourses that legitimate or function to mobilize burnout in postgraduate medical education (PGME), to answer the question: Why does burnout persist in PGME despite efforts to ameliorate it? Using a Foucauldian discourse analysis, this study examined the socializing period of PGME as an entry point into burnout's persistence. The archive from which the discourses were constructed included over 500 academic articles, numerous policy documents, autobiographies, videos, documentaries, social media, materials from conferences, and threads in forums including Reddit. This study identified 3 discourses of burnout from 1974-2019: burnout as illness, burnout as occupational stress, and burnout as existentialism. Each discourse was associated with statements of truth, signs and signifiers, roles that individuals play within the discourse, and different institutions that gained visibility as a result of differing discourses. Burnout persists despite effort to ameliorate it because it is a productive construct for organizations. In its current form, it depoliticizes issues of health in favor of wellness and gives voice to the challenge of making meaning from the experience of being a clinician.

Human-centred health-care environments: a new framework for biophilic design.

Increasing research corroborates that the qualities of the setting in which a patient receives healthcare positively influence health outcomes. Therefore, it has become progressively important to review the concept of therapeutic environments, as places where patients are treated with the most advanced medicine and technology, but also support their users in psychological, emotional and social terms. This quest for the optimal healing environment brings to the forefront the need to include other parameters in our design briefs, where the application of biophilic design proves to be paramount, as exposure to nature is associated with multiple health benefits. However, current biophilic design frameworks fail to provide efficient guidance, as their design recommendations don't differentiate the level of value of each design parameter for each building programme and context. Our position is that a biophilic design framework can only be efficient if it is adapted to specific building functions and is geographically and culturally contextualized. This study assessed the application of biophilic design in therapeutic environments for cancer patients in the UK, and provided a revised conceptual framework that can more efficiently guide designers and policies in future interventions. This framework was informed by synthesised analyses from healthcare environments on the user's experiences, and primary data obtained from semi-structured interviews with architects and managers, which was then benchmarked against scientific data about the impact of biophilic design on humans. This comprehensive approach helped to identify and rank those biophilic design parameters that appear the most critical for promoting and supporting health and wellbeing in cancer healthcare settings and provided an up-to-date compilation of crucial design actions to enact the necessary change in future research and design practice.

Downward counterfactual analysis of multi-risk cascades

Loss outcomes from geohazards are compounded by an array of human risk factors. The combination of geohazards and human risk factors can generate multi-risk cascades. In the historical record, disasters arising from such multi-risk cascades are comparatively rare. However, far more common are near-misses, where a disaster tipping point to massive destructive energy release and expanding losses was narrowly averted. What happened historically is only one realization of what might have happened. Due to psychological outcome bias, people pay far less attention to near-misses than to actual losses. A downward counterfactual is a psychological term for a thought about the past, where things turned for the worse. Exploration of downward counterfactuals enhances risk awareness and can contribute to risk preparedness. There are no databases of multi-risk cascade near-misses, but insights can be gained from downward counterfactual analysis. Geohazard examples of multi-risk downward counterfactuals are given, including cases of critical infrastructure damage. A downward counterfactual can drive a minor hazard event beyond the disaster tipping point boundary, and turn a disaster into a major catastrophe. To illustrate the latter, a downward counterfactual analysis is presented of the Fukushima nuclear accident of 11 March 2011, which might have crossed the tipping point boundary into a multi-risk cascade catastrophe.

Threat, voting and candidate support. The impact of mortality salience

IntroductionHow does threat motivate political choices? An extensive literature has noted the importance of threat in influencing political behavior. A growing literature in political psychology has used the concept of “mortality salience” to examine the role of existential threat in political decisions. Scholars have argued that inducing mortality salience by asking individuals to think about their own death should result in either reinforcement of their existing political worldview, a shift to a more politically conservative view, or support for a “status quo” option more generally.MethodsWe performed two survey experiments (N = 484 and 1514) manipulating mortality salience and candidate features (Exp. 2). Experiment 1 was performed one week before the 2016 US presidential election and utilized the varying features of the candidates. Experiment 2 manipulated features such as experience level (representing the status quo or change) and partisanship.ResultsWe find that mortality salience led to an increased likelihood of voting for Hillary Clinton, particularly for moderate and independent respondents. We also find that independent participants preferred the status quo candidate under mortality salience.DiscussionWe interpret the findings in both studies as supporting a connection between existential threat and preference for the status quo in psychological terms, at least for less partisan voters, rather than a conservative shift in ideological terms or a tendency to reinforce existing views.

CHALLENGES AND EFFECTS OF TECHNOLOGY IN EMOTIONAL AND PSYCHOLOGICAL DEVELOPMENT OF CHILDREN

The development of technology has affected many aspects of life, including psychology and emotions. While technology provides benefits and convenience in everyday life, there are also challenges that need to be considered regarding its influence on children's development. This article explains some of the main challenges faced by children in using technology, especially in terms of psychology and emotions. In addition, this article will highlight the effects that will occur and have occurred on children's emotional and psychological development as a result of excessive and uncontrolled use of technology. The study in this article will use a qualitative methodology of library methods. It was found that the uncontrolled influence of technology on children can negatively impact their ability to regulate emotions, build healthy social relationships, and develop interpersonal communication skills. These factors can affect children's emotional and psychological development in the long run. The article also provides some suggestions and strategies for dealing with these challenges. The importance of the role of parents and educators in supervising and directing children's use of technology is emphasised, as well as the need to create a balance. By understanding the challenges and impact of technology on children's emotional and psychological development, it is hoped that effective measures can be implemented to maintain health and balance in children's lives in this digital age.

The Criticism of Utsman Najati to Modern Psychology

Psychology has provided a significant effect in describing human behavior in the modern era. However, despite the extensive development of theories in modern psychology, this field of science still needs to improve in terms of terminology, epistemology, and worldview. One of the Muslim psychologists who criticized this problem was Utsman Najati. This research was library research, and the data sources consisted of primary data sources from Utsman Najati's works related to Psychology, and secondary data sources, namely in the form of books, which were relevant to this research to strengthen arguments and to complement data from research results. The data analysis technique used by the authors in this study was content analysis. The findings obtained from this paper were as follows: First, Utsman Najati revealed the disparity between the terms of psychology and research objects which were limited to behavior; Second, Utsman Najati uncovered the problem of the epistemology of psychology, which limited itself to empirical things; Third, a materialistic and atheist perspective in several schools of modern psychology contradicted the Islamic view of life.

Youth poetry and national values

National values are a system of principles that have been formed over the centuries and passed down from generation to generation in the way of life and spirituality of every people. The values of each people, selected and tested during the period of historical development, accumulated as the most valuable heritage - the native language and historical memory, spiritual and human qualities, moral norms, customs and traditional foundations form the basis of the national idea of this people. National values occupy a special place in the life of the people and are an important source of education for the new generation. spiritual values that have been formed over the centuries through the life experience of the people, as society develops, are replenished with new symbols and mature in accordance with modern requirements. In today’s globalized world, each nation can preserve its national character only when it integrates into the world community, reviving its great spiritual treasures – language, mentality, history, traditions, literature and art.

It creates rules and principles that strengthen the human qualities of each nation, nourish the soul, arise from the wisdom of the people and are constantly renewed. The Kazakh worldview, mentality, customs, traditions and teachings have been formed and strengthened for centuries. One of the effective tools for glorifying, promoting and instilling national values in the minds of the younger generation, based on the foundations of centuries-old national education, is fiction, including poetry. The article reveals the role of national values in the poems of young Mangistau poets Gulayim Dautbayeva and Nurgul Maulina. Analyzing the works of these poets, the author examines their cognitive and educational value, their role in the formation of national identity and serving national interests. In literary, philosophical, psychological terms, the essence of national concepts and ideas in poetic texts is analyzed, an assessment is made of the conceptual orientation of the work of young poets.
