The Concept of Conciliarity (Sobornost’) in the Russian Language Picture of the World
Authors: Odintsova Irina
Published: January 2022

The article examines the concept of CONCILIARITY as a “symbolic” deep linguistic concept of the Russian linguistic picture of the world, reflecting the national spiritual activity of the people. This concept is analyzed in the light of religious-theological, philosophical, sociological and culturological knowledge manifested in language and through language. The article examines the main ideas of conciliarity, which find confirmation, “imprint” in the language: the dissolution of I in the collective WE, which embodies the principle of “unity in plurality”; reduction, detachment of the subject of the utterance from the object of the utterance; consistency, cohesion, plasticity of the language and – as a consequence – the fluidity of Russian speech. These linguistic features are confirmed by facts in the field of morphology, syntax and phonetics.

Authors: Dmitrenko Natalia , Budas Iuliia , Koliadych Yulia , Poliarush Nina
Published: January 2022

The article focuses on introducing formative assessment to the educational process of professionally oriented English communication and the impact of assessment on students’ motivation to learn English. In the article, various types of motivation are discussed; high and low levels of formative assessment are presented; the relationship between motivation and assessment in learning English is studied. The model of high and low levels of formative assessment implementation in learning English for professional communication is tested. The levels of students’ motivation to English acquisition in the conditions of low and high levels of formative assessment are compared. Special attention is paid to specific pedagogical conditions under which formative assessment has a greater impact on students’ motivation. Experimental training was conducted among students of the pedagogical university who study English for professional communication. The authors compare and analyze the results of the motivation tests and diagnostic tests of language proficiency at the pre- and post- stages of experimental training. The study supports the idea about the relationship between students’ motivation and their English language proficiency assessment. The results show that a high level of formative assessment can be beneficial for overcoming students’ low motivation if students receive immediate feedback, evaluation of their work, teachers’ recommendations and support. It is observed that the reasonable integration of students’ self-assessment into teachers’ formative assessment plays a vital role in increasing students’ motivation to English acquisition. According to the study, regular practical implementation of high-level formative assessment methods in English acquisition increases the level of students’ motivation and, consequently, the level of students’ achievements in mastering professionally oriented English communication.
A Psycholinguistic Cross-Cultural Study of the Concept 'Conflict' in India and Ukraine
Authors: Girnyk Andriy , Krylova-Grek Yuliya , Khan Azizuddin
Published: January 2022

The paper presents a comparative study of the semantic field of the concept of conflict in Ukrainian and Indian cultures. The literature review has shown that there has not been any discussion on the abstract general concept of conflict. However, we consider such data exceptionally important for a better understanding of the worldview and cultural differences in diverse countries. Our study aimed to identify cultural features, similarities, and differences in the perception of the concept of conflict by representatives of various cultures. To investigate the way the concept of conflict is perceived, we used a set of methods, including speech activity analysis, free-listing for data gathering and processing, mathematical calculation, systematization, and generalization of results We conducted our study in three phases: at the first stage we gathered data, at the second we processed them, and at the third phase we generalized the findings and drawing conclusions. The students from Kyiv-Mohyla Academy (Ukraine) and Indian Institute of Technology Bombay (India) participated in the research (19-24years old). In general, we got 292 questionnaires. The experiment revealed that the common semantic core of the concept of conflict in Ukrainian and Indian cultures contains seven words: fight, misunderstanding, war, disagreement, quarrel, struggle, aggression. But in contrast to the Ukrainian culture, in India, the associations with the given concept predominantly depict the person’s emotional state (sadness, anger, fear, confusion, and misunderstanding). Participants from India also mention caste discrimination and religious diversity. In Ukraine, the word conflict is much associated with negative interaction (quarrel, aggression, argument, dispute, etc.). Besides, in contrast to the Indian culture, there are no associations with social discrimination and religious diversity. The importance of our findings cannot be stressed too much since they can potentially be used in mediation, social advertising, and international negotiations.
Verbal Indicators of Personal Identity in The Road Past Altamont by Gabrielle Roy
Authors: Kuzikova Svitlana , Vertel Anton , Zlyvkov Valeriy , Lukomska Svitlana
Published: January 2022

The present paper explores personal identity linguistic indicators detected in The Road Past Altamont by Gabrielle Roy. Works by this Canadian writer, public personality, and significant figure in French Canadian literature are of interest to a broad audience today in Canada, where almost all her books have been translated into English, and abroad. Written in a fluid, spare style, they are distinguished by lively narration and a keen sense of observation. Her literature approaches the world and people with clear sight and compassion. The Road Past Altamont (1966) by Roy is one of the most original in Canada, as varied as it is cohesive. The novel is dedicated to the coverage of the autobiographical narrative, the peculiarities of the personal identity crisis for different age groups, the succession of generations. These existential problems are actualized in crisis life situations. Despite containing four independent texts, the Road Past Altamont, each of which tells a finished story, is not a collection of short stories but a novel-saga. Its genre is both fragmented and unified, and it has a flexible structure based on the concept of the human life course. The four stories in this novel are connected not only by the main character at different points in her life but also by the themes that explore the changes, ageing, and society’s relation to the elders. The study aims to single out verbal indicators of personal identity obtained from the second part, “The old man and the child” of the Roy’s novel and the music album of the same name, created on its basis in 2021. Among the main findings are the defining psycholinguistic markers of time and space in the discourse of “The old man and the child” that encompass personal identity cognitive component. Hence, it is possible to treat the transformation of identity in the modern world in terms of constructing “self” as a reflexive project - implementing an integral, biographical story being changed in a polyvariant context of choice.
Hermeneutics of Lázaro in The Labyrinth by Buero Vallejo
Authors: Peña-Acuña Beatriz
Published: January 2022

This play contributes to a better understanding of the psychological mechanism of behavior with respect to recurrent auditory hallucinations and the traumatic origin that can cause it, such as experiencing a violent event. This causes an emotional blockage of fear in the actor, due to the defense mechanism of denial, with repercussions on memory and negative feelings of guilt and shame. The author proposes an adequate emotional management for the protagonist, Lázaro. The solution is aimed at making him dare to know the truth and accept it following current clinical psychological praxis, without taking refuge in the protection of others. In this way, he will improve and may even reduce the emotional state and the hallucination. In the analysis of the work, various contents are decoded. First, the planes of reality: the physical world, the fantasy world and the inner world of the characters. Second, the trauma lodged in the subconscious and auditory hallucination. Third, relationship of defense mechanisms, emotional intelligence and memory. Fourth, plot about love relationships. Fifth, the psychological mechanisms in favor of justice and truth. It is proposed how this drama could have contributed to the social imaginary to raise awareness about the emotional management of individuals. The results indicate that this symbolic and complex work of form and content also contributes to solving other human dilemmas such as the limitation to know reality, in addition to the feelings and emotions in the subconscious, as well as to accept them. It is discovered how to cope with an ethical sense of justice in a society in democratic transition, with still open wounds that derive from a war. Also, there is the aspiration to a humane society on the part of the author.
Unconscious Memory in Acquiring New Vocabulary Using Flashcards
Authors: Podoliak Mykhailo
Published: January 2022

Most people tend to memorize different things unconsciously, without even taking notice of this process. However, it comprises a vital and effective function of the human mind that requires little effort. Following this perspective, the article aims to analyze the possibility of applying this function in the language learning process, particularly in facilitating the process of memorizing new foreign words. The experiment was conducted to prove the effectiveness of the proposed method and consisted of two phases. First, three focus groups of students were to observe the flashcards alongside the translation of words for the time period of 16 weeks, unconsciously memorizing them. Then, there were two control tests to determine the effectiveness of such a learning method. The present paper also relies on the articles and research activities of numerous scholars (e.g. L. Standing, Z. Urgolites, D. Nikolic., T. Brady, T. Konkle, M. Schurgin, C. Cunningham), showcasing the effectiveness of visual memory in retaining the information for a longer period of time. These studies emphasized the associations that people make while memorizing different things. Our research posits that color flashcards with the translation of words facilitate the process of creating associations among students, ensuring high results of their memory performance. Foreign language teachers can hence use the research results to facilitate learning new words by students.
Lexicon on Board: A MEG Study Based on Expressive Picture-Naming
Authors: Tabari Fatemeh
Published: January 2022

The cognitive processes associated with word retrieval and the investigation of word-picture differences are complex and not fully understood. Uttering a word entails orchestrating several steps as visual object recognition, accessing a lexical concept, lemma selection, lemma retrieval, accessing the morpheme(s) and generating the phonological word, and finally retrieving syllabic gestural scores and articulation. To study the mechanisms of word retrieval in lemma selection phase, we compared the three groups of monolingual, semi-bilingual and bilingual learners with respect to their topography and strength of Functional Connectivity (FC)values of the most highlighted pair of activated nodes in the time range of 0-150 ms in different frequency bands (delta, theta, alpha, beta, and gamma) upon application of the stimuli. We have seen no significant difference between difference frequency bands (p > 0.05) at the most highlighted FC pairs. However, we observed higher gamma values signifying the semantic activation of the word. We could not find any significant difference between the groups in terms of FC values at designated pairs of nodes signifying that different amount of exposure could not affect electrophysiological patterns in the preliminary step of word production.

Published: January 2022

The research objective is to examine the brain activity of individuals with different levels of procrastination. The study applies EEG data analysis with different levels of linguistic stimuli complexity (letter and semantic word), allowing to change the cognitive load and register the electrical activity of the cerebral cortex while performing tasks with two different stimuli: perceptual and semantic. We registered the electrical activity of the cerebral cortex in 20 individuals (18 females, 2 males) in the shielding lightproof testing room of the Laboratory of Age Neurophysiology at Lesya Ukrainka Volyn National University. This technique analyzes the dynamics of cortical electrogenesis identifies general patterns of local and spatial synchronization of biopotentials of the cerebral cortex. The findings indicate that the dynamics of cortical electrogenesis of prospective memory depends on linguistic stimuli complexity in procrastinators, associated with increased energy expenditure. Furthermore, the largest number of statistically significant intergroup differences in subjects with different levels of procrastination was found in the beta range of EEG, indicating the rhythm of activity. On the one hand, this rhythm of activity is dependent on the optimization of problem-solving. On the other, the increase in its power reflects cortical excitation and selective inhibition. Evidence consistently suggests that the complexity of the linguistic task increases the interaction of brain macrostructures in the anterior associative zone (fronto-central leads) in students with dilatory behaviour. In contrast, subjects without dilatory behaviour demonstrate only changes in spatial synchronization modulated according to the linguistic stimuli complexity.

Authors: Jasso Martínez Ivy Jacaranda , Martínez de la Rosa Alejandro
Published: January 2022

El objetivo de este trabajo es presentar una reflexión general de la danza de Tlahualiles que se practica en Sahuayo (Michoacán, México) y proponer una interpretación de su significado tomando en cuenta su dinámica actual. Exponemos dos visiones, una interpretación a partir de material documental histórico y una descripción de la danza desde los mismos participantes, para mostrar las dinámicas internas y las posibles tensiones entre sus orígenes y su actualidad. La tensión entre religiosidad católica y religiosidad popular parece estar presente en la práctica de esta danza. En este sentido, registramos un reciente proceso de “consagración” para eliminar elementos “paganos” que habían imperado. La metodología consistió en el análisis de material documental histórico y una aproximación cualitativa con las siguientes técnicas: entrevistas, charlas informales y la observación de la danza en diferentes espacios.
MEMBANDING MONOGRAFI DESA KONVENSIONAL DENGAN MONOGRAFI DESA PRESISI (Kasus: Desa Sukamantri, Kecamatan Tamansari, Kabupaten Bogor)
Authors: Nilam Neovani  , Sofyan Sjaf
Published: January 2022

Monografi desa merupakan salah satu sumber data desa yang penting dan harus disusun dengan baik. Monografi desa ini menjadi basis atau acuan data yang dimiliki desa untuk digunakan dalam merencanakan program pembangunan desa. Selama ini, monografi desa yang disusun secara konvensional menjadi polemik karena tidak akuratnya data dengan keadaan yang sebenarnya, sehingga memerlukan pendekatan baru. Pendekatan baru perlu ada karena jika desa berangkat dari data yang tidak tepat dan akurat dalam merencanakan program pembangunan desa, maka kemungkinan program pembangunan desa yang nantinya dijalankan tidak terarah dan terukur. Pendekatan baru yang dimaksud, yaitu monografi desa presisi yang dihasilkan dari Data Desa Presisi (DDP) yang menitikberatkan pada relasi spasial, partisipatif, dan sensus. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah mengkaji monografi desa konvensional dan monografi desa presisi, mana yang lebih sempurna sehingga dapat digunakan untuk acuan data merencanakan program pembangunan desa. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah kuantitatif dengan pendekatan Drone Participatory Mapping (DPM) dan didukung oleh data kualitatif melalui studi literatur dan wawancara mendalam. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa monografi desa presisi lebih sempurna dibandingkan monografi desa konvensional.

An experiment was conducted to characterize 31 pearl millet genotypes with 28 morphological traits using DUS descriptors at the Department of Millets, Tamil Nadu Agricultural University, Coimbatore, during Kharif 2019. The landrace Kizikuppam local was found to have a very long leaf length and a medium leaf width, indicating a high leaf area index, an important physiological trait that could be employed in future breeding programmes. The genotypes PT 6067, PT 6707, PT 6710, Cumbu 1, Uthangarai local and Shoolagiri local had compact panicle, an important ordinal trait for yield improvement. Small, yellow-brown color and elliptical shaped seeds were noted in Kuttu Cumbu 1, Kuttu Cumbu 2, Kuttu Cumbu 3, and Pothu Cumbu, which could be used to promote the variation in the base population. The early flowering nature of these genotypes might incorporate drought resistance. Agglomerative hierarchical cluster (AHC) analysis showed PT 6582, Kizikuppam local, Uthangarai local, and Dhanashakti were placed under cluster VI with maximum cluster mean for single plant yield. Superior classification of these genotypes for plant growth habit, leaf sheath length, leaf blade length, leaf blade width, panicle exertion, panicle length, panicle girth, number of productive tillers, plant height, panicle density and thousand seed weight indicated the importance of these ordinal traits in yield improvement by using the genotypes of this cluster. The Shannon-Wiener index was high for the time of spike emergence, thousand seed weight, leaf blade length, panicle shape, panicle density and seed color.
"…and make a fresh start": a linguo-stylistic analysis of Yu. D. Levitansky’s poem "The winter was like asnowy pass…"
Authors: Frolova E. A.
Published: January 2022

Yu. D. Levitansky’s creative work has repeatedly become the object of literary analysis. Nevertheless, the poet’s writing has not been subject to detailed linguo-stylistic research. The article aims to analyse the linguistic means expressing the author’s message in the poem "The winter was like a snowy pass" and on the basis of this characterisation to reveal the philosophical content of the lyrical poem. To achieve the stated aim, linguo-stylistic text analysis is employed. This approach permits the determination of the role and functions linguistic units perform in revealing the poet’s world view. Componential analysis is used to identify the means of semantic extension and transformations of primary and customary meanings of lexical items, which turns out to be important to form the philosophical basis of the poem. The paper concludes that Yu. Levitansky paints a picture of a man’s and poet’s life searches. Additionally, the modes of expressing the author’s message are identified. The reality and fiction are closely intertwined and complement each other. Thus, they help to reveal the view of life of an individual and the whole generation better. Using the monochrome palette of black-and-white films (the poem is part of the winter cycle of the "Cinematograph" collection), the author provides philosophical reflection on life, creativity, and his own place in the fate of the Sixtiers’ generation.
M. V. Lomonosov’s "Russian Grammar" as the first rulebook of Russian orthography
Authors: Kaverina V. V.
Published: January 2022

The paper analyses the 1757 and 1765 editions of "Russian Grammar" and on this basis aims to formulate M. V. Lomonosov’s orthographic program as well as specific spelling rules set forth in his grammatical piece of work. An important objective of this research is to trace the influence of the Lomonosov rules on the orthographic practice in the XVIIIth–XIXth centuries and works by the great scientist’s followers. As a result, the study identified the enormous significance of Lomonosov’s works for the formation of the Russian literary language spelling standards. Not all rules prescribed in the Grammar were supported in common usage and stood the test of time, for instance, including the prefix s- (Russian с-) to the rule concerning the prefixes ending in z- (Russian з-). Nonetheless, the scientist deserves much credit as he laid the fundamental groundwork for the Russian literary language spelling standards. M. V. Lomonosov was the first to formulate the basic orthographic principles; he made it a rule to spell roots according to their derivation ("po proizvozhdeniyu"); in addition, the scientist insisted on the uniformity of spelling prefixes and suffixes; finally, he suggested standardising the spelling of Russian endings by contrast with Church Slavonic ones. The norms prescribed in the "Russian Grammar" treatise underpin all the later Russian spelling rulebooks and are still relevant nowadays.

Hence, access to health support facilities should be prioritized towards improving health outcomes. This study will help give awareness and strategies that could help people shield themselves, primarily since this pandemic mainly targeted their physical and mental well-being. In this viewpoint, factors affecting the physical and mental welfare, the COVID-19 pandemic linkage to mental and physical well-being, societal states before and during the pandemic, standards on good mental and physical health, the sudden shift of situation, status of the physical and mental well-being of different individuals, and management strategies to help improve mental and physical well-being are discussed. The paper will be focusing on the state of mental and physical well-being prior to and throughout the pandemic.
Factors determining household savings in Zambia: A logit regression model from the micro-economic perspective
Authors: Saviour Lusaya  , Namoonga Mulunda
Published: January 2022

Although not directly linked in time and space, the low savings in an economy will pose a huge challenge on the growth prospect of the country as both private and public savings remain catalytic to economic growth. The classical and neo-classical growth theories have placed emphasis on the critical role of savings in the economy and indeed the need for high savings cannot be overemphasised. This study sought to examine microeconomic determinants of household savings in Zambia using cross sectional data obtained from the Central Statistics Office 2015 Living Condition Monitoring Survey comprising 12251 households. The study conducted an analysis of factors using a Logistic regression model. The results of the study found that income and employment status of the households had a positive and significant influence on the probability of a household to save. On the other hand, household size, age and region (living in urban areas) negatively influenced household savings and was significant at all critical levels. The marginal effects which measures the magnitude of the impact of the independent variable on the independent variable was analyzed and it was found that for income ceteris paribus, a 1% increase in income was found to increase the probability of a household to save by 0.01percentage point while an improvement in employment of household heads increases the probability of a household to save by5.6 percentage point ceteris paribus. Furthermore, ceteris paribus, an additional year of the household head age reduces the likelihood to save by 1.4 percentage point. On the basis of household size, the study found that ceteris paribus, adding an extra person to a given household reduces the likelihood of a household to save by 1.14 percentage point. For the region variable, the study used rural region as a benchmark region to distinguish between urban and rural household propensity to save. It was found that households that were located in urban areas were 9.8% less likely to save compared to households located in rural areas. Given the findings above, it was concluded that low levels of savings in Zambia are attributed to; low household incomes, overgrowing informal sector and overpopulated households. It was recommended that the government should increase its funding towards economic empowerment to boost job creation which would enhance household income and reduce over dependency of household members.

Published: January 2022

Abstract: The aim of this research is to look at the Shia educational movement in Indonesia as it develops its philosophy. Document study activities, observation, and interviews were used to gather data. Two findings were offered in this study. The first is marriage, which is a technique for expanding the number of Shiites in Indonesia by allowing a husband and wife to establish an Islamic family structure based on Shia beliefs. In this setting, the family serves as the primary educational institution in Indonesia for the young Shia generation. The second, internalization of information, attitudes, and abilities, takes place in activities created by Islamic organizations and foundations founded by Shia groups in Indonesia. The many organizations and foundations involved in education and religion have formed a venue for Shia community education in introducing and propagating their schools of thought.
