PSYCHOLOGICAL STRUCTURE AND CONTENT «ME PHYSICAL»

 

Language: Russian

The article envisages the psychological structure and content of Me-physical. It is shown that the conversion of the external appearance plays the role of adaptive-compensatory mechanism to allow the regula¬tion of relations between the individual and society. This mechanism is shown in various behavioral strategies, as transformation of the physical Me accompanies man in a traditional society throughout his life.

Language: English

The article deals with the problem of blended learning usage as a model of modern technology of teaching foreign

Languages. The concept of common European education is analyzed. Due to this concept teaching and learning standards, educational models, and teaching objectives are brought together with the aim to create the common all-European educa¬tional system. In order to join this all-European scheme Ukraine needs to make modifications in its educational system. The fundamental idea is to use blended learning as the dominant instructional mode in higher edu¬cation. Three elements of the course delivery are distinguished: a tutor moderated course, a face-to-face workshop (group with workshop tu¬tor), a self study element which is based around the completion of two to three written assignments (individual participants with tutor). Ukrain¬ian educators' point of view is discussed which reflects the following idea: taking into account the present state of level of the Internet access, availability of hardware and software for individuals and educational institutions, it is possible to use the suggested ways of blended learning in educational institutions of Ukraine. Blended learning is a powerful technology to be implemented into the modern model of Ukrainian edu¬cation in order to get the level of European educational system. The main condition of providing such a model for teaching foreign

Languages is ELT teachers' understanding and skills development in the sphere of blended learning and their ability to teach according to its rules.

Keywords: blended learning, Bologna declaration, concept of common European education, English

Language teaching, modular object-oriented dynamic learning environment.

Such questions as: what is happiness and what is the starting age of it being experienced, what are its sources, still remain relevant nowadays. The understanding of the concepts and the components of happiness, ways to achieve it aren't studied yet. Thus, the study of happiness in psychology raises difficult methodological ques¬tions, such as what is the essence of this phenomenon, what methods can be used to investigate it, what is the concept that can be relied on. The obtained data indicate that experiencing the feelings of happiness among preschoolers acquires enormous practical importance, because the feeling of happiness protects the person from disintegration and personality disorders, creates the basis of inner harmony, a complete mental health, high working capacity. The feeling of happiness is an important factor in preventing the risk of development of somatic and mental diseases under stress: it creates the so called «immunity» to pro¬voking experiences and at the same time promotes the optimal experi¬ence of situations of uncertainty and anxiety. It is also significant that the feeling of happiness does not only affect the situation assessment, but also the activity of the child in overcoming this situation. Keywords: experiencing the feelings of happiness, socialization of per¬sonality in preschool age, conditions of upbringing, the mechanisms of the formation of ideas about happiness.

If we make analysis of the work of psychologists who have studied age-related psychological changes of mentality, age periodization and characteristics of a child and an adult, we can assert that adolescence is the most difficult period in the formation and development of personality. It is proved that with the low level of anxiety the senior adolescents appraise their life quality higher. The article describes the features of the correlation between the level of the general anxiety and the senior adolescents self-appraisal of life quality. The ways of the psychocorrecting program for the senior adolescents with the low life quality appraisal are developed. The pro¬gram of psychocorrection of the anxiety level of senior adolescents is suggested. The main part of the psychocorrection program is the psycho-up trainings that contribute to the advancement of knowledge, acquisi¬tion of new skills and behaviors, perpetuate self-confidence, provide an opportunity to understand a lot about the others and understand that you are not alone with this problem. We conducted a cross-section con¬trol which consisted of correlation analysis of the results of empirical research before and after the psycho correction program. According to these data and empirical study of mathematical statistics we have estab¬lished the relationship between the studied concepts - adolescents anxi¬ety and life quality. Thus, we confirmed the hypothesis: a low level of anxiety will favour senior adolescents appraisal of their life quality. It is also established that the implementation of the psychocorrection pro¬gram normalizes their general anxiety and favours development of higher self-appraisal of the adolescents life quality.

Keywords: adolescence, senior adolescents, mature, anxiety, quality of life, psychological well-being, self-appraisal, self-perception.

The motive is stated to be an important link in the explanation of human behavior, which carries so¬cial and socio-historical determination, conditioning of behavior, human psychology, and its psychophysical integrity. The set of different induce¬ments determining the direction of behavior and activities constitutes the motivational sphere of the personality. The motivation is emphasized to be one of the basic concepts in psychology; it is used to explain the driving forces of behavior, human activities. In the current researches different approaches to understanding the phenomenon of motivation are examined. There have been identified and summarized the different approaches to the notion of the phenomenon of motivation - classifica¬tion, phenomenological and structural, which, having its own specificity, are complementary and interpenetrating. One of the trends in modern psychology is the study of motives on the basis of their interaction. It is established that any activity and behavior are polymotivated, i. e. they are prompted by not the only motive, but several, sometimes many rea¬sons. The polymotivation is confirmed to be conditioned by the fact that human actions are determined by their relation to the objective world, to people, to society, to themselves. It is concluded that involving as much needs as possible (actualization of more motivating factors) in¬creases the level of activities motivation, and the motivational sphere of a man in terms of its development can be appraised according to the following parameters: latitude, flexibility and hierarchy.

Keywords: motive, motivation, motivational sphere, human being, behavior, activities, state, need, goal, personality.

THE LEISURE NATURE OF VOLUNTEERING

 

Language: Ukrainian

 

The article deals with a theoretical comprehension of the leisure aspect of volunteering in terms of the activity approach. In the study volunteer¬ing activity is considered as a relatively uncoercive, intrinsically motivat-ing and rewarding formal or informal activity aimed at supporting oth¬ers and self-help. Having analyzed the basic socio-psychological proper¬ties of leisure and volunteering, the author revealed multiple points of contacts and overlapping which give reasons to state the leisure nature of volunteering. In the article volunteering as leisure is considered ac¬cording to its significance for volunteers and communities. The author focuses on a complex interaction between altruism and egoism in volun¬teering as leisure and the variability of its motives depending on its sub¬jects and stages.

The leisure nature of volunteering is determined by the hierarchy of mo¬tives. Egoism (coupled with altruism), obligation (subject to experienc¬ing positive emotions and preserving freedom of choice) and financial reward (provided the volunteer avoids dependence on it), - are com¬pletely agreed with the concept of volunteering as leisure. The intensity of egoism depends on the type of leisure activities. Between volunteering and involunteering there exist a lot of their marginal forms originated by the key criteria of volunteerism. The types of volunteering activity determine the content of volunteers' cognition and rewards. Based on the findings a psychological tooling will be developed to examine the nature of volunteering aimed at assisting the military to solve the armed conflict in the antiterrorist operation zone.

Keywords: leisure, volunteer activity, personality, motivation, altru¬ism, egoism, reward, value in itself.
