Published: January 2025

The article deals with issues of inter-budget and inter-departmental coordination to finance project activities connected with capital investment. Special attention was paid to evaluation of factors influencing budget expenses of all levels and non-budget sources, observation of dates of reaching control points and results of project events in conducting capital investment. The goal of the present research is to identify problems in mechanism of capital investment financing within the frames of federal and regional projects at different levels of management and work out recommendations aimed at their overcoming. The authors revealed and systematized key problems in implementation of federal and regional projects in case of capital investment financing, analyzed their reasons and after-effects illustrated by different projects, including incompleteness of regulating enactments in the field of project financing of budget expenses; low quality of project-estimate documents; improper procedures of finding the supplier (contractor, executor) and careless observation of their obligations under the contract. Special attention was paid to issues of insufficient finance support of capital investment, inaccurate estimation of finance volumes and coordination of dates of reaching control points in project events. As a result the authors formulated and substantiated practical recommendations aimed at raising the role and wider authorities of municipal bodies as participants of project activities, upgrading procedures of project documents preparation, modernization and developing new information systems in the field of project activities of power bodies, elaborating typical provisions for cooperation of authorized bodies and other participants of purchase, managing risks of circumstances not under control of contract client and executors. These recommendations could provide more efficient planning of budget allocations in developing federal and regional projects, cutting terms of step implementation for building projects of capital construction, tracing the process of capital investment, minimizing risks of unpredictable costs of consolidated budgets of entities of the Russian Federation.

Introduction. Emotion dysregulation is a characteristic of autism spectrum disorders (ASDs). This study aims to systematize and analyze data on the specificity of emotion dysregulation in children and adults with autism spectrum disorders (ASDs) and their neurophysiological correlates.
Emotion regulation in ASDs. Typical manifestations of emotion dysregulation in different age groups with ASDs, the relationship between efficient and inefficient regulatory mechanisms and concomitant disorders, external and internal problems, and key symptoms of autism are described. The emotion regulation system in ASDs shows a developmental delay.
Neurobiological mechanisms of disorders in the emotional sphere and social interactions in ASDs. Data on the neurobiological mechanisms of emotion dysregulation in ASDs show a number of structural, functional, and molecular characteristics in the brain regions associated with the processing of social information, as well as an imbalance of excitation and inhibition processes, which obviously decreases stress resistance. Due to the increase in avoidance behavior and reduction in social experience, low stress resistance to social stimuli creates secondary obstacles to the formation of effective self-regulation strategies.
Neurobiological mechanisms of emotion dysregulation in ASDs. There is a single neurophysiological basis for disturbances in the processing of emotional and social signals and in emotion dysregulation in ASDs.

Introduction. Cancer patients in the context of the pandemic experienced additional distress. Their psychoemotional state was influenced by factors such as the threat of COVID-19 infection, delayed treatment, postponement of planned operations, deterioration of their condition against the background of comorbid pathology and chemotherapy. Due to the continuing threat of the emergence of new strains of coronavirus infection, the study of the psychological characteristics of patients with mono- and comorbid cancer does not lose relevance. The purpose of this study was to investigate the personal characteristics, value-semantic orientations and other psychological features reflecting psychological adaptation to prolonged distress in groups of cancer patients who have and have not had a coronavirus infection.
Methods. The study was conducted on the basis of the Federal State Budgetary Institution "NMIC of Oncology" of the Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation (Rostov-on-Don) in the period from spring 2021 to autumn 2023; 112 cancer patients aged 18 to 62 years took part in it (the average age was 42 years, 64% of them were women, 36% were men), 48% of them suffered COVID-19. The following psychodiagnostic techniques were used: SCL-90-R, Lazarus coping test, 5PFQ, D.A. Leontiev's life sense orientations test, M. Rokich's "Value Orientations" technique, the WHO–100 scale. The one-way ANOVA (Analysis of Variance) and post-hock analysis (Tukey’s test) were used for statistical processing of the obtained results.
Results. The fact of the transferred disease COVID-19 is associated with a change in the hierarchy of values, the expression of volitional qualities and flexibility in solving life difficulties: in the group of cancer patients who suffered COVID-19, the values of "love", "development", "breadth of views", "sensitivity" are significantly more pronounced; in the personal sphere, the poles of irresponsibility and practicality are expressed.
Discussion. The results obtained complement the existing data on the features of the value-semantic and personal sphere of cancer patients with comorbid pathology. Conclusion. The conducted theoretical and empirical research can be useful for psychologists, medical and social workers who provide assistance to cancer patients and their families.
Psychological Assessment of South Koreans' Perception on Unification Laws: How Legal Psychology Impacts Perspectives on Korean Unification Policies
Authors: Kim Dongkyu , Lim Jungbin
Published: January 2025

Introduction. In order to implement the «Special Presidential Declaration for National Pride and Unification Prosperity», South Korea enacted and promulgated the «Inter-Korean Exchange and Cooperation Act» on August 1, 1990, expressing its commitment to a North Korea policy and unification policy based on constitutional rule of law. As a result, the Ministry of Unification currently is in charge of a total of 31 related statutes: 11 laws, 12 presidential decrees, and 8 ministerial decrees. However, despite South Korean's high public interest in North Korea and inter-Korean relations, there is a lack of public awareness regarding laws relevant to unification. This is partly because North Korea policy has primarily been led by the President and the executive branch, whereas the legislative body, the National Assembly, played a relatively minor role in inter-Korean and foreign relations. Effective rule of law reduces corruption, protects individuals from minor injustices, supports responsible governance, respects fundamental rights, and forms the foundation for a just, peaceful, and opportunistic community. In the context of unification, achieving an ideal unified state necessitates securing a legal system that ensures a fair society governed by rational and public rules, rather than arbitrary rule by leaders. Methods. This research conducted a survey on 225 South Korean citizens aged 19 and older using an online questionnaire to investigate their legal consciousness regarding unification-related laws. Results. Descriptive statistics revealed a low public awareness of unification-related laws, and low legal consciousness on the Unification law. Further correlational analysis revealed a positive correlation between cognitive and emotional dimensions of legal consciousness and supportive attitudes towards unification and reconciliatory North Korea policies. Discussion. Based on these findings, it is suggested that the government could consider expanding the functions of the Unification Law Database operated by the Ministry of Unification and strengthening legal education in the curriculum conducted during the Unification Education Week by the National Institute for Unification Education.

Introduction. Direct participation in risky and traumatizing events, such as local armed conflicts, has a certain effect on the psyche not only of the participants in hostilities, but also of the civilian population, who remained to live and work in the conflict zone. The purpose of our study is to obtain empirical data on the value-sense sphere of the population of the areas of local armed conflicts, that is, living directly in the epicenter of military events. Methods. The sample consisted of 211 people aged 21-53 years, including: 67 men and 144 women. A conversation and associative experiment were used. Results. It was revealed that the fear of death leads the population to the realization of meaning-life values, prompts to determine the most important in their lives. Peaceful residents depending on their stay in the territories with a high degree of combat intensity experience unfavorable well-being, decrease in activity, deterioration of mood and depressive states, unproductive behavioral strategies prevail in them, which influences priority life goals, evaluation of the current period of life. Discussion. During an armed conflict, the meaning of life of people who live in the epicenter of war is, first of all, in survival and preservation of the family. People mostly live one day at a time, not really thinking about their future, and they are more concerned about the future of their children. The results obtained by us can be used to develop various directions of psychological assistance to the population of local armed conflicts.

Introduction. The problem of forming an image of the world and imaginative thinking is particularly relevant in modern conditions of transformation of education and changes in the forms and methods of information presentation. The current approaches to the formation of imaginative thinking and the image of the world are considered, first of all, traditional educational technologies. In our research, visual tools and strategies that form the conditions of the visual educational environment play an important role. Methods. The study involved 120 primary school students from the Children's Art School (60 people) and the Rostov-on-Don secondary School (60 people). The "Worldview" methodology and the "Assessment of imaginative thinking" methodology were used to study the image of the world. Methods of mathematical statistics (descriptive statistics, Pearson Chi-criterion, Mann-Whitney U-criterion, analysis of variance) were used in processing the results. Results. It was revealed that the younger students from the Children's Art School and secondary school have a dominant "Landscape" picture of the world. For schoolchildren from the Children's Art School, the choice of an image in the form of a "Landscape" picture of the world is more pronounced. Schoolchildren from the Children's Art School are characterized by a high level of development of imaginative thinking. The analysis of variance showed significant differences between groups of schoolchildren in terms of imaginative thinking. For schoolchildren with a "Landscape" and "Mediated" picture of the world, a higher level of imaginative thinking is characteristic. Discussion. The results obtained confirm that in the conditions of a visual educational environment, there is a more intensive development of imaginative thinking and the image of the world. The results are also consistent with the research of other authors dealing with this problem.
Самоуничижительный юмор в жизни и интернет-среде: онтологические предикторы и связь с самоотношением у молодых людей

Published: January 2025

Introduction. Self-defeating humor is a person's humiliation of self through jokes or actions. Self-defeating humor is a common thing in interpersonal communication (offline) and in Internet communication (online) among young people. Humor is a mirror of self-attitude. We suggest that the preference for a self-defeating humor style is associated with a negative self-attitude, and it is an attempt to protect oneself with a "mask", including a "False Self", or with actual psychological problems. Purpose of the study is to identify the ontological predictors of the choice of a self- defeating humor style and to define its links with self-attitude and self-esteem. Methods. There were 174 respondents, the average age was 19.2 years. We used Humor Styles Questionnaire by R. Martin; psychometric method «Ontological security» by N.V. Kopteva; self-attitude test questionnaire by V. V. Stolin, S. R. Pantileev; Rosenberg's self-esteem scale (RSES) (Russian adaptation by A. A. Zolotareva); a questionnaire to specify how people use self-defeating humor in communication and behavior. We used correlation analysis and regression analysis to process the results. Results. Self-defeating humor has significant negative correlations with the general level of ontological security, self-worth and self-esteem. Self-defeating humor has significant positive correlations with the "False Self", internal conflict and self-blame. Regression analysis revealed that the first model with the variable "False Self" explains the variability of the use of self-defeating humor by 34.6%, the second model with the variable "False Self" and the variable of self-blame has a higher coefficient of determination and explains the variability of self-defeating humor by 37.4%. Discussion. The preferment of self-defeating humor style is affected by a low level of ontological security, negative self-attitude and low self-esteem. Self-defeating humor may indicate negative experiences associated with a lack of self-worth, self-condemnation, self-rejection, lack of inner support and connections with other people. Self-defeating humor through jokes or memes is a way to release of accumulated inner tension.

Introduction. Symptoms of emotional burnout (EB) in mothers of primary school children are associated with parenting styles and intensive parenting attitudes. Mothers seeking psychological help for problems related to the education and rearing of primary school children are characterized by EB caused by contradictory parental attitudes embodied in parenting styles. Methods. The study aimed to determine the severity of intensive parenting attitudes among mothers of primary school children as a predictor of EB and parenting styles related to EB. The sample comprised women seeking psychological help at the Novomed-Deti multi-disciplinary clinic in Kaliningrad (n = 158). The study used the following diagnostic tools: (a) Intensive Parenting Attitudes Questionnaire; (b) Varga–Stolin Parenting Attitudes Questionnaire; (c) Maternal Burnout Questionnaire by L. I. Bazaleva; and (d) Luscher Color Test to diagnose the emotional sphere. Methods of mathematical and statistical analysis were used, including factor analysis with varimax rotation and Mann-Whitney U Test. Results. Mothers of primary school children with strong attitudes toward essentialism, intensive stimulation, difficulty and with low parental satisfaction are more prone to EB. Parenting styles with characteristic symptoms of maternal burnout, including rejection, infantilization – high EB level; authoritarian hypersocialization, symbiosis – average EB level; acceptance and social cooperation – low EB level, are described. Discussion. The data obtained can be used as the basis for the development of a comprehensive model for preventing EB in mothers and for overcoming parenting stress and parental dissatisfaction.

Introduction. The use of mobile devices by children and adolescents is a common practice at the moment. Although mobile learning has some benefits, the results of the study on its effectiveness are contradictory. The study described in this paper is one of the first carried out to summarize the results of meta-analyses assessing the effects of using mobile devices by school children in the educational context. Methods. The study aimed to identify the effects of using mobile devices in learning based on second-order meta-analysis procedures. Twenty-nine meta-analyses conducted between 2014 and 2023 were analyzed, with minimal overlap between primary studies. A systematic search for sources and their assessment in accordance with the meta-review protocol, an analysis of coincidences in studies included in primary meta-analyses, an assessment of the presence of publication bias, and an analysis of the influence of categorical moderators were conducted. Results. The use of mobile devices by students has an average impact on their educational outcomes (g = 0.654 (95% CI: 0.578–0.73)). A significant result was found when assessing the heterogeneity of mean effect sizes (t2 = 0.042, Q = 277.255, p < 0.001; I2 = 86.95 %). The moderator analysis showed a significant impact of the type of educational outcome, subject area of ​​study, type of publication and location of primary research. Conflicting results are found when mean effect sizes are analyzed across different levels of education. Discussion. The average effect size obtained during the analysis is characterized by a high degree of stability at different periods of digitalization of education. The use of mobile devices by school children can have a dual impact on their learning activities, depending on the inclusion of adults in this process. Problematic digital behavior is associated with worsened educational outcomes. The use of gadgets for educational purposes, on the contrary, helps to increase learning efficiency compared to its traditional forms. The meta-review provides further directions for research on the effects of the use of mobile devices by school children in their educational activities and can help develop digital culture education programs.

Introduction. Two lines of research stand out in the field of context-dependent memory research: context-dependent reproduction and context-dependent recognition. Different environmental contexts influence the productivity of involuntary memory using free playback and recognition techniques. Our study aims to establish the influence of external contexts of involuntary memorization of lexical items on their subsequent recognition performance. Methods. The procedure varied the states of two variables: global context (room view) and local context (background color and localization of the word on the screen). In the first phase, 107 subjects performed a sensorimotor task that involved the identification of a target stimulus with a recognizable characteristic (the letter ‘a’ as part of a word). In the second stage, where contextual conditions varied, subjects were required to recognize previously presented words in a series of new distractor words. The recognition accuracy, the reaction time, and the response confidence were evaluated. Results. It was found that the empirical markers "recognition accuracy" and "reaction time" are uninformative in assessing mnemic productivity. The analysis of the indicator "degree of confidence" showed that regardless of the retention / change of contexts, correct answers are given with greater confidence. Repetition of the local context in the situation of verbal stimuli recognition leads to a decrease in response time and an increase in confidence for words with the recognition feature that was relevant to the goal of the activity during memorization. Changing the global context does not induce a similar effect. Discussion. The main factors on which the recognition of lexical units during their unintentional memorization depends are the local context and the "key feature" (E. Tulving) with which the response was associated during encoding. The study of the role of motor context in mnemic activity may become a perspective in the study of the phenomenology of context-dependent memory.

Introduction. Currently, a significant number of children with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) have been identified. The appearance of a child with such a disorder in a family creates an unfavorable situation for parents and contributes to parental burnout. Methods. The sample consisted of 75 mothers who raised children with ASD (age of the interviewees 36.52 ± 6.54 years, age of the children 6.1 ± 1.72 years). The Parental Burnout Questionnaire (I. N. Efimova) and the Proactive Coping Behavior Questionnaire (E. Greenglas, R. Schwarzer, S. Taubert, adapted by E. S. Starchenkova) were used for diagnosis. The KRUSkal-Wallist est and regression analysis were used for statistical processing. Results. It was found that mothers raising two children are less characterized by depersonalization than mothers with one or three children, one of whom suffers from ASD. A predictor that reduces emotional exhaustion and depersonalization is proactive coping. The cause of increased depersonalization is the search for instrumental support, without actually reinforcing it in the actions of caring for a sick child. Proactive parenting, strategic planning, and seeking emotional support are the real parenting accomplishments. Discussion. Parental burnout of mothers raising a child with ASD is determined in most cases by a lack of proactive coping. Parental burnout has a multifactorial origin and occurs in response to a prolonged imbalance between stressors and mother's resources. The obtained data indicate the need to create programs of psychological support for mothers raising a child with ASD Programs should aim to develop parental competence and proactive coping to prevent burnout.

Introduction. Although the scientific community is highly interested in studying burnout and trust issues in medical research, there is insufficient information on the relationship between the characteristics of professional burnout and trust in its broadest sense among medical professionals. This study focuses on manifestations of emotional burnout among military doctors with different models of trust relationships.
Methods. The study used the following diagnostic tools: (a) the Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI; K. Maslach & S. Jackson, modified by N. E. Vodop'yanova); (b) the questionnaire for Assessing Self-Trust by T. P. Skripkina; (c) the Rotter Interpersonal Trust Scale, modified by S. G. Dostovalova. The sample comprised 41 military doctors. During the study, the sample was divided into three subgroups according to trust relationship models.
Results. Specialists with a balance between self-trust and trust in the world had lower levels of depersonalization and emotional exhaustion. Military doctors with higher levels of self-trust and trust in the world had the highest scores of exhaustion and depersonalization, consistent with theoretical ideas about the role of trust. The scores of professional burnout were lower among respondents who had high levels of self-trust and trust in the world. The lowest scores of depersonalization and reduced personal accomplishment were obtained in the subgroup of military doctors with high levels of self-trust and trust in the world. The highest scores of depersonalization were obtained in the subgroup of military doctors with a higher level of self-trust, compared to the level of trust in the world. Military doctors with average levels of self-trust and trust in the world had the highest scores of reduced personal accomplishment.
Discussion. Building trust relationships with themselves and the world helps military doctors to reduce the development of symptoms of professional burnout. The results of the study expand the knowledge of the relationship between trust and professional burnout in medical practice, especially among military doctors.

Introduction. Socio-economic and political transformations change moral and ethical values directly. This study aims to identify the values and meanings in life in Armenian, Georgian, and Russian adolescents.
Methods. The respondents (n = 69) were Russian, Armenian, and Georgian adolescents aged 14–15 years. Diagnostic tools: (1) the Meaning-in-Life Orientations test by D. A. Leontiev (MLO); (2) scale survey for Studying Ethnic Identity in Adolescents by O. L. Romanova; (3) the inventory for Studying the System of Life Meanings by V. Yu. Kotlyakov; and (4) the Cultural Value Orientations test by J. Townsend modified by L. G. Pochebut. Statistical analysis of the results was conducted using the Kruskal-Wallis H test.
Results. The level of the sense of belonging to a specific ethnic group is higher in Georgian (85 %) adolescents, compared to Armenian (70 %) and Russian (60 %) adolescents. Georgian adolescents are more satisfied with self-realization, compared to Armenian and Russian adolescents.
Discussion. The findings indicate that Georgian adolescents have a more pronounced indicator of meaningfulness of life, compared to Armenian and Russian adolescents. Russian adolescents emphasize the importance of using Russian in the communication process. Georgian adolescents see life as a means of self-realization and gaining a high social status more than Russian and Armenian adolescents. Compared to other groups, Armenian adolescents define meaning in life in terms of altruism and family well-being, while Russian adolescents are more interested in finding meaning in life and freedom. Georgian and Armenian adolescents are oriented toward the past, cultural and national traditions. Russian adolescents are oriented toward the future, quick results in their activities, and are more characterized by the desire for freedom, autonomy, and material rewards.

Introduction. The article addresses the problem of increasing existential fears, their growing prevalence and intensity among the population due to changes in objective reality associated with the deterioration of the social, ecological, and political situation in the country and the world. Despite numerous studies devoted to fears, the age-related characteristics of experiencing existential fears and their connection with psycho-emotional states remain insufficiently studied.Methods. The sample included 317 respondents. The first group consisted of respondents aged 15–17, the second group of respondents aged 20–25, and the third group of respondents aged 30–45. We examined the prevalence and intensity of fears in three age groups, taking into account gender, using the authors' questionnaire, "Features of the Actualization of Existential Fears in Individuals". We also assessed the levels of personal anxiety and depression using the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI) and the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI). The Mann-Whitney U-test was used to confirm the reliability of differences between subgroups of respondents, and Spearman's rank correlation coefficient was used to confirm relationships between variables.Results. Fears were present in all participants, with intense fears being more common among women regardless of age group. The older age group showed a decrease in the frequency of high-intensity fears compared to the younger groups, regardless of gender. Additionally, direct significant correlations were found between the intensity of fears and the increase in anxiety and depression levels in all participants, regardless of age.Discussion. The data suggest that a person's psycho-emotional status influences how they experience fears, with an increase in their intensity, regardless of age and gender. Since high-intensity fears can lead to disruptions in normal adaptation and socialization, it seems necessary to create a program aimed at overcoming fears, taking into account certain psychological characteristics of the individual, including their emotional sphere (personal anxiety and depression).

Introduction. High levels of anxiety are often associated with abnormal activity in the brain areas involved in emotional processing, cognitive control, and reduced connectivity in the default mode network (DMN). Studies also show that the activation of the DMN increases during self-reflection processes, especially positive self-reference, suggesting the possibility of using self-reflection to reduce anxiety. This study aims to test this hypothesis on the basis of EEG dynamic data before and after tasks that engage in self-reflection. Methods. The study population comprised 127 participants (mean age 25 ± 8 years). The sample was divided into low- and high-anxious groups and into experimental and control subgroups. Experimental subgroups were subjected to an Imaginary and Self-Reflective Resource (ISRR) technique developed by the author to engage participants in self-reflection. The control groups completed tasks in a disciplinary academic field – a standard cognitive load. EEG recordings were made before and after the tasks were completed. Results. The results showed that high levels of anxiety tend to lead to cognitive fatigue when completing typical cognitive tasks. At the same time, the self-reflection process combined with high levels of anxiety does not lead to a serious cognitive fatigue, but rather reflects the attention process.  Low anxiety is generally associated with lower cognitive fatigue. In low-anxious subjects, the completion of self-reflection tasks involves a significant brain activation that characterizes attention processes. Discussion. The results obtained are consistent with those of other researchers and generally confirm the hypothesis of the study. Positive self-reflection can reduce high levels of anxiety due to the DMN activation.

Introduction. Creative potential is what distinguishes gifted students from their mainstream peers, what is subject to further development and will eventually turn into talent. Creativity and talent are inseparably connected. Teachers can use creativity indicators to assess the giftedness of students. The purpose of our study is to identify how creative potential indicators can be predictors of student giftedness. The scientific novelty of the study consists in obtaining the results of comparative diagnostics of the creative potential of Russian and Chinese students in music education for further educational process planning to achieve impressive results. Methods. The survey was conducted using a comprehensive methodology designed to identify the level of students’ creative potential in music education. The respondents to the study were Chinese students from the Shenzhen College of International Education, Shenzhen, China (50 participants) and Russian students from the Rostov College of Arts, Rostov-on-Don, Russia (62 participants). The age of the college students ranged from 14 to 19 years (n = 112). The average age of the respondents was 17.1 ± 1.8 years, and the median age was 17 years. Results. The average value of the creative potential (creativity) level of the Shenzhen College of International Education (China) students was 21.67 points, and students of the Rostov College of Arts - 25.05 points, which is comparatively higher. The standard deviation shows the magnitude of the obtained data spread and is 2.74 points for Chinese students and 2.28 points for Russian students. The calculation of Student's t-criterion allows estimating the statistical significance of the identified differences in the values of the mean values for two unrelated samples. The obtained empirical value tEmp = 5.2 (p ≤0.01) is in the significance zone. In addition, the study data showed a relationship between the creative potential of students and emotional intelligence. Discussion. The results of psychological diagnostics allow editing the music training program taking into account the choice of instruments and technologies that activate emotional intelligence formation and development in groups and also students’ creative potential development.

Introduction. Positive neuroscience is an integrative area that aims to study physiological mechanisms in a positive-psychological context. The research of this field touches the problematics of prosocial behavior, personality strengths (VIA), well-being and altruism. The novelty of this research includes theoretical substantiation of the formation of a new direction for the scientific space in Russia – positive neuroscience. Theoretical justification. The main trends of modern positive psychology are positive socialization, well-being and personality strengths (VIA). Three practical areas of application of positive neuroscience are the formation of psychological well-being of the individual, prevention of aggression and stimulation of prosocial behavior of the individual. We analyzed neuroscience researches for its consistency with the positive psychological approach to the study of personality and the possibility of further integrative study of personality at the intersection of three areas of psychological knowledge: positive psychology, personality psychology, and systems psychophysiology, particularly in the aspect of studying aggression and prosocial behavior. Positive neuroscience is both an independent branch of fundamental psychological knowledge and an additional and alternative way of investigating the classical concepts of personality psychology, social psychology and systemic psychophysiology within the framework of the positive-psychological direction, which is confirmed by psychological research. Discussion. Positive neuroscience is a highly promising direction both in the theoretical aspect of studying and describing personality, and in the practical aspect of identifying and finding the most effective ways to form psychological well-being and psychological resilience of the individual, its prosocial patterns of behavior and prevention of aggression and destructive behavior.

Introduction. Emigration by Africans raises important questions about the preservation of cultural heritage and ethnic identity among African diaspora. This study examines the role of familial socialization and social resilience in shaping the ethnic identities of African adolescents born abroad. Methods. The study adopted a cross-sectional survey design in which data was obtained via an online survey among adolescents from Nigerian migrant families in the United Kingdom. Data from a sample of 212 college students were obtained via Google forms. Snowballing techniques were adopted in reaching eligible participants for the study. The distribution of participants showed that 57% were female while 43% were male. In terms of the African heritage, majority (47%) of the participants were from Yoruba ethnicities, 34% were from Igbo related tribes while 19% were from Hausa related ethnicities. Results. Results obtained suggest that both covert and overt dimensions of familial socialization have a statistically significant predictive relationship with ethnic identity [F(2, 209)=3.842; p<.05]; with the covert dimension having a slightly stronger predictive strength (β=0.212; p<.05) compared to overt dimension (β=0.203; p<.05). Furthermore social resilience emerged as a significant moderator in the relationship between familial socialization and ethnic identity (ΔR2 of 4.2%). Discussion. These findings underline the importance of both familial and community support in nurturing and preserving ethnic identities within diaspora communities. Recommendations were made towards the production of an ‘African Heritage Kit’, tailored to teach and recommend familial socialization practices for preserving African cultural heritage across generations.

Introduction. This article analyzes various aspects of psychological well-being and resources for mothers of children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) who have been displaced from their permanent residence. Methods. Mothers of children with ASD, the main group (N = 18, mean age 39.9 years) who live with their children in a temporary accommodation center (TAC) and the control group (N = 18, mean age 32.9 years) participated in the study. The abbreviated Depression, Anxiety, and Stress Scale (Lovibond, Lovibond, 1995), Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support (Zimet et al., 1988), Frequency of seeking help in different categories (Ushkov et al., 2020), Modified Semantic Differential methodology (Molchanov, Almazova, Poskrebysheva, 2023), Coping Ways Scale, Single-item assessment of general life satisfaction were used. Results. Forced migrants demonstrated lower life satisfaction, weaker perception from friends and in general from different sources, more often ready to seek help from "secondary support" groups, and less often from partners and friends compared to the control group. No differences were found between the groups in measures of depression, anxiety, and stress, but the levels of depression and stress were significantly higher in both groups compared to the population data. Differences in time perspective were found: forced migrants perceive the world in the future as less complicated compared to the control group. Discussion. The peculiarities of psychological well-being (increased levels of stress and depression) due to the presence of children with ASD, characteristic of both groups, and differences between groups determined by forced migration were revealed. Important resources for migrants may be a positive image of the world in the future, readiness to rely on support from family and "secondary support" groups, and some sociodemographic characteristics (presence of other children, age). Conclusion. The results obtained will make it possible to pay special attention to those categories of forced migrants who were previously in risk groups, including mothers of children with mental developmental disabilities.

Introduction. Study of place identity phenomenon, its structure and influence on different aspects of human life is a relevant scientific problem. The goal of our research is to reveal the value bases of urban identity within the framework of the subject approach. Methods. The survey sample consisted of 447 respondents, residents of Krasnodar-city. The toolkit included the Droseltis & Vignoles scale in the author’s translation, the B. Kaigorodsky method in the author's modification, “Personality questionnaire for the individual values study”. Descriptive statistics, analysis of variance, correlation and regression analyses were used to process the data. Results. The research findings showed that the length of residence is an influential factor of place identity: respondents, born and grown up in the conditions of the city under study significantly higher estimate both their deep connection with the city and personal empowerment. In the group of native Krasnodar dwellers, the predictors of the urban identity aspects “Person authenticity in the urban environment” and “Self-actualization in the urban environment” are values of social focus – Conservation and Self-Transcendence, the value basis of the identity parameter “Self-actualization in the urban environment” is value of Openness to change. For respondents who consciously chose Krasnodar as the place of residence, the value of Self-Transcendence was identified as the value basis of the parameter “Authenticity in the urban environment”, at the core of Self-actualization in the urban environment as a factor of place identity, the value of Self-Enhancement was found in this group. For respondents who consider living in the city as temporary, the value predictor of identity with the city is Openness to change, Authenticity in the urban environment is influenced by the value of Conservation extent. Discussion. The results of the study enhance the subject approach, place identity can be considered as a manifestation of personal agency, as a special case of the development of the individual’s existential spaces. The research findings can be used to develop programs aimed at integrating the urban community.

Introduction. Researching stress becomes more and more relevant due to a sharp increase in the stress level among population. There is enough evidence that this phenomenon is caused by the increasing uncertainty of existence in the 21st century, due to the rapid and non-predictable changes in various spheres of human and social life. Yet, in domestic psychology one can observe a lack of works focusing on the stress of uncertainty, as well as the absence of valid and reliable methods for its measurement. The presented study had its purpose to create a new questionnaire for assessing the degree of perceived uncertainty stress, to provide its validation and psychometric evaluation. The total study sample consisted of 1411 people including 1130 college students (mean age 17.64; 43.5% - girls) and 281 university students (mean age 19.14; 76.3% - girls). Methods. Validation methods: V. Morosanova's "Self-Regulation Profile Questionnaire - SRPQM" (Morosanova, Kondratyuk, 2020); "Scale of Perceived Stress (SPS-10)" (Zolotareva, 2023). Results. The authors presented results of testing and validation of the questionnaire "Subjective and Objective Uncertainty Stress - SOUS" on the Russian sample. The technique is proved to be a reliable and valid tool for measuring the uncertainty stress in adolescents. The questionnaire includes two scales to assess the stress severity in situations of subjective and objective uncertainty as well as the integral scale indicating the general level of uncertainty stress. Discussion. The indicators of stress severity obtained on the scales of subjective and objective uncertainty are predictably positively associated with perceived distress and moderately negatively - with general level of conscious self-regulation, which shows the construct and convergent validity of the developed questionnaire. Conclusion. The proposed questionnaire can be used in psychological and pedagogical practice in order to assess the level of perceived uncertainty stress in adolescent students, as well as the degree of its severity in subjectively uncertain life situations and in relation to objective global stressors (situations) of uncertainty.
