Abstract:
The article summarizes the views on the current socio-political, cultural and economic situation in the context of sociological research in journalism. The study is aimed at analyzing the views of young people on what traditional religions they follow, the level of their religious knowledge and what they should do against the activities of non-traditional religious movements and religious extremist organizations and their destructive activities. The article, written using research methods such as pilot studies, rapid surveys, focus group interviews, uses the method of multistage random sampling of sociology in journalism. Quantitative and qualitative approaches to data collection have been implemented. The methods were used to organize and use focus groups, store, process, compare statistics, use the results in media research, select new methods and queries. The effectiveness of sociological research, the choice of respondents, open and closed types, survey methods (questionnaires, content analysis, expert interviews, in-depth interviews, telephone interviews, etc.) are considered. The goals and objectives of content analysis in the media are also clearly formulated. Methods used were social media polls, selective placement by industry, and random polls. The problems of sociological research (organization, planning, recognition of social reality) in the work of the editorial board were not left aside.

Abstract:
The article presents various approaches and methods of historiographic research, shows the interrelation between history and historiography. The works depicting the historiographic analysis of important sociological categories and concepts are singled out. The subject, methods and tasks of historiographic studies of the knowledge of sociological science are characterized. Types and varieties of historiographic sources are indicated. The article definitely starts the sociological direction in historiography, highlights the degree of study of historiographic and source research problems. The historiography of sociological science is defined as a branch of knowledge that studies the history of accumulation of sociological knowledge, the development of sociological thought and research methodology, the history of the creation of sociological works and biographies of scientists, the influence of sociopolitical life phenomena on the work of sociologists and the impact of sociological thought on public consciousness, the history of scientific institutions , organization of sociological education and dissemination of sociological knowledge.Attention is drawn to the experience of one of the most famous and influential historiographic schools of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries – the Klyuchevsky school. This school carried out a synthesis of history and sociology. Revising the conceptual tools of knowledge of the past, which the preceding historiography had, he largely shaped the subject and method of national history in a new way, focusing on analyzing the evolution of the social structure of society, researching social and economic processes, rather than describing outstanding events. Due to this, the emphasis from political and legal history was shifted to the socio-economic history. This research orientation had a clear humanistic orientation, as it brought historical research closer to the person in his social environment.The historiography of the sociological approach in the microdynamic studies of J. Turner is described, which reflects the nature and direction of theoretical studies, which are distinguished by an orientation towards active theoretical and multilateral conceptual synthesis. Attention is drawn to the fact that the very fact of developing a theory of this type testifies to the nature of the unfolding of theoretical perspectives in modern sociology. T. Kuhn’s role in the development of historiographic research is shown. In particular, the historiography and sociological aspect of Kuhn’s theory is that various episodes in the development of historiography of sociological science contribute to reconstructing the historical process of sociology, revealing its beginnings and ends, and bridging the gap between sociological theorists and social practices.

Abstract:
During the period of reforming of higher education in Ukraine, issues related to the methodology and technology of teaching sociological disciplines in higher education for non-core specialties become relevant. Sociology as a science is especially relevant in Ukraine, as it preconditions the creation of scientific foundations of a conscious civil society, which enriches the population with freedom of thought and harmonious development. In order for an individual to use the obtained freedom responsibly and effectively, it is necessary to understand the fundamental principles of the functioning of various institutions of the state, its social phenomena and processes. That is why there is a need to analyze and improve the existing methods of teaching sociological disciplines. The aim of the study is to research methods of teaching sociological disciplines for students majoring in «231 − Social Work». The following methods and approaches were used in the course of research: system analysis − to find out the characteristics of modern methods of teaching sociological disciplines in free economic zones; comparative and multifactor analysis − to compare the existing types of teaching methods in the free economic zone; method of operationalization of concepts − to describe the specifics of teaching sociological disciplines in higher educational establishments. The method of teaching sociological disciplines is that it forms in students majoring in «social work» culture and thinking, the ability to correctly perceive social processes occurring in our post-communist society, contributes to the formation of knowledge about social reality, explains the logic of social development, develops conceptual apparatus, methodology and methods of sociological research.

Abstract:
The paper is based on the ESRC research project: ‘Identity, Performance and Social Action: Community Theatre Among Refugees’ which is part of the research programme on ‘Identities and Social Action’. After describing the project, the paper examines the methodological specificities and different stages of Playback and Forum Theatre. The latter includes image work, character building, scenes and interventions. It argues that overall participatory theatre, techniques as sociological research methods, provide different kinds of data and information than other methods – embodied, dialogical and illustrative. The paper ends by examining the circumstances in which the use of these techniques as research methodology are be beneficial. It also calls for an overall wider use of these techniques in sociological research, especially to study narratives of identity of marginalised groups, as well as to illustrate perceptions and experiences of social positionings and power relations in and outside community groupings. Using participatory theatre as a research tool, therefore, can be considered as one form of action research.

Abstract:
The article deals with the methods used in the study of the phenomena that make up the subject of criminology. The main task is to analyze the content of the methodology, general scientific methods, private methods and techniques used in criminological studies. In the course of their work, the authors used metaphysics and dialectic as a methodology; showed the specifics of their application to crime, as well as legal background for the nature of criminality e.g. its public danger. The authors used such general scientific methods as general scientific approaches and mid-level theories. In the case of criminality, the use of a systematic approach and philosophical teaching about human activity is shown. This enabled them to present criminality as a system the structural trait of which is a crime, and a holistic quality is a public danger which synthesizes the public danger of crimes, perpetrators and criminal groups. As a theory of the middle level, the theory of psychological alienation of the person is applied, according to which the typological feature of the criminal's personality is its anxiety for its social or biological status since the crime is psychological protection for external circumstances that cause such anxiety. Among private methods, the emphasis is on the statis-tical method used to characterize quantitative-quality crime indicators and a sociological one (interviewing, conversation, interviews, expert evaluation, analysis of documents, observa-tion). The methods above have limited possibilities: criminal statistics operate with data only on the recorded crimes, reflected in the documents of primary records, the closed criminal environment does not allow to use the method of included surveillance; the method of inter-viewing the participants of criminal groups and their relatives often gives false information, or cannot be applied because the persons in question refuse to be involved in questioning at all; the experiment deals only with certain aspects of criminal justice. The authors conclude that the combination of methodology, general scientific and specific research methods, the specificity of their application to group crime form the methodology of its study. They point out the application in criminology of sociometric and stratometric methods, by which the mechanism of formation, the dynamics of the development of criminal groups is shown, their classification is given, the number of group members is revealed, their status in the group and the structure of the group is established.

Abstract:
Subject. The study focuses on psychological distinctions of people that influence their financial behavior. I identify the above specifics and evaluate the financial position of respondents, who were surveyed with my own questionnaires in accordance with the methodology of the Central Bank of the Russian Federation, NAFI Research Centre and OECD. The survey embraces 2,088 respondents living in the Sverdlovsk Oblast. I hypothesize that behavioral types may emerge from consumer and financial decisions people make, assuming that the people differ not only by their social and property status, age and other conventional aspects to be ranked, but mainly by psychological characteristics, which may reveal sociological and psychological methods of research. Objectives. The study is to rest the sociological and psychological methodology for modeling the financial and consumer behavior of people. Methods. The sociological survey is the main applied method of research herein. The content of questionnaires and its methodology was adapted from those ones used in the OECD countries and the methodology of the Central Bank of Russia with reference to the Sverdlovsk Oblast. To determine types of people’s financial behavior, I used the VALS (Values and Lifestyles) methodology for market segmentation. Results. First, having analyzed thematic connotations through the VALS method, I proposed a typological model for segmentation of respondents’ financial and consumer behavior. Second, as part of the opinion poll processing, I revealed and summarized psychological factors influencing the financial and consumer behavior of people. Third, the sociological and psychological survey framework was probated to analyze the financial and consumer behavior of people. Conclusions and Relevance. Based on the VALS psychographic model, I proposed my own model to determine types of the financial and consumer behavior. The article enlists groups of factors influencing the financial and consumer behavior and provides the rationale for sociological and psychological methods to study common models of the financial and consumer behavior.

Abstract:
Digital sociology is a computational social science that uses modern information systems and technologies, has already formed. But the conflict with traditional sociology and its research methods has not yet been resolved. This conflict can be overcome if we remember that there is a common goal – the knowledge of the phenomena and processes of social life, which is primary in relation to the methods to be agreed upon. Digital transformation of sociology is essential, since 1) traditional sociological methods do not solve the problem of providing voluminous, reliable empirical data qualitatively and in a short time; 2) the transition from contact research methods to unobtrusive ones is in demand. The adaptation of four modern information technologies-cloud computing, big data, the Internet of things and artificial intelligence – for the purposes of sociology provides a qualitative transition in the methodology of knowledge of the digital society. Cloud computing provide researchers with tools, big data – research materials, Internet of things technology aimed at collecting indicators (receiving signals) in large volume, in real time, as direct, not indirect evidence of human behavior. The development of “artificial intelligence” technology expands the possibility of receiving processed signals of the quality of the social system without building a preliminary hypothesis, in a short time and on a large volume of processed data. Digital transformation of sociology does not mean abandoning the use of traditional methods of sociological analysis, but it involves expanding the competence of a sociologist, which requires a revision of University curricula. At the same time, combining the functions of an expert on the subject (sociologist) and data analyst in one specialist is assessed as unpromising, it is proposed to combine their professional competencies in working on unified research projects.

Abstract:
The unprecedented increase in the intensity of cross-border interactions in the modern world is emphasised, and the necessity of sociological monitoring of these processes is substantiated, the precondition of which is the creation of an appropriate methodology and methods. The stages of formation of theoretical sociology with particular attention to the genesis of cross-border interactions are considered. It is found that the main milestones in the formation of modern methodological principles of sociological analysis of this phenomenon are the post-classical stage of development of theoretical sociology (according to G. Zborovsky’s periodisation), the methodology of social constructivism, spatial turn and mobility in social development. The work of J. Urry’s sociology of mobility is considered, and its application to the Ukrainian realities is offered. Models of state regulation of cross-border mobility as one of the types of cross-border interactions, defined as the model of “gardener state” and “forest state”, are analysed. It is emphasised that these models had an explanatory power concerning the nation-states of the modern industrial era, but in the era of globalisation distort the understanding of central social processes and phenomena. The author analyzed the views of foreign and Ukrainian researchers on the methodological aspects of research on cross-border interactions. The systematic methodology of cross-border research, proposed by S. Ustych, is used and proposals for its improvement and implementation in research practices are formulated. The author’s position on methodological bases of sociological study of cross-border interactions as a differentiating and solidifying factor is offered.

Abstract:
The purpose of this article is to review the characteristics and principles of research in action and actualization in this context of sociological methods and relevant research competencies of teachers. Research in action is presented as one that can be used by lecturers to obtain the necessary information about their current students, which is necessary to compensate for socio-cultural barriers to the introduction of student-centered education, choice of teaching methods, increase student motivation, general and subject competencies. Demonstrated that action research are relevant in the perspective of socio-cultural and other aspects (globalization, economic) changes in modern society.The most important features and principles of action research in the field of education are presented. It is emphasized that their purpose is determined not by the priorities of science to create a universal pedagogical theory, but by the specific tasks of practice in a particular audience or class. The principles of action research are developed and widely studied in sociology, directly related to the methods of obtaining data - surveys, interviews, focus group interviews, document analysis, observation, as well as the formulation of the research problem, setting goals and objectives of the study, and questions validity and reliability of research data. Action research procedures demonstrate the use of sociological methodology for the tasks of direct educational practice, so action research as a field of educational activity is not yet widely represented in Ukraine, can receive support and resources from the sociological field. The interaction of action research and sociology is demonstrated through the author's experience in studying students' expectations from the course. The conditions for distance learning during a pandemic are becoming a new field for the development of research practices in action. The task of creating an appropriate learning environment, adequate to the objectives of the course and the nature of the student audience, are more noticeable in the distance, when communication sessions with students are limited in time, and meeting through the screen narrows the field for observing students in the classroom and using teaching intuition.

Abstract:
This article examines the character of a small but detailed observational study that focused on two teams of researchers, one engaged in qualitative sociological research, the other developing statistical models. The study was presented as investigating ‘the social life of methods’, an approach seen by some as displacing conventional research methodology. The study drew on ethnomethodology, and was offered as a direct parallel with ethnographic and ethnomethodological investigations of natural scientists’ work by Science and Technology Studies scholars. In the articles deriving from this study, the authors show how even the statisticians relied on background qualitative knowledge about the social phenomena to which their data related. The articles also document routine practices employed by each set of researchers, some ‘troubles’ they encountered and how they dealt with these. Another theme addressed is whether the distinction between quantitative and qualitative approaches accurately characterised differences between these researchers at the level of practical reasoning. While this research is presented as descriptive in orientation, concerned simply with documenting social science practices, it operates against a background of at least implicit critique. I examine its character and the closely associated criticism of social research methodology and conventional social science.

Abstract:
In this paper we make a methodological case for mixed method social network analysis (MMSNA). We begin by both challenging the idea, prevalent in some quarters, that mixing methods means combining incompatible epistemological or theoretical assumptions and by positing an ontological argument in favour of mixed methods. We then suggest a methodological framework for MMSNA and argue for the importance of ‘mechanisms’ in relational-sociological research. Finally, we discuss two examples of MMSNA from our own research, using them to illustrate arguments from the paper.

Abstract:
Background The aim of the study was to perform an in-depth exploratory analysis of the experience and image of one’s body among living kidney donors. Method The research was carried out using mixed methodology. The study on experiencing one’s own body was carried out using the sociological methodology of the grounded theory (qualitative research). This method was supplemented with psychometric measurement–the Body Esteem Scale (quantitative research). The basic research method was the in-depth interview. Using this method, a group of 25 living kidney donors who had not experienced any serious health or psychological problems after donation was examined. The participants of the study came from three transplant centers in Poland. Results The data from the sociological interviews indicate that the donors: 1. do not experience radical changes in the functioning of their body; 2. maintain full control over it and do not feel the absence of a kidney in the body; 3. consciously and reflectively take care of their body after donation. In addition, the sociological research indicates that caring for one’s own body also includes the transferred organ. The kidney donors experience a kind of bodily identity extension, including the recipient’s body. However, the personal and social identity of the studied kidney donors is not disturbed in any way. The psychometric data correspond to the sociological results and indicate: 1. a lack of extreme emotional assessments about one’s body; 2. awareness of one’s own body and consistency of its image; 3. reduced emotional assessment of body zones directly related to the surgery; 4. differences in body image between the sexes. Conclusions The research results presented in the text indicate not only the possibility, but also the need for triangulation of research methods in the study of the experience and image of one’s own body in living kidney donors. The proposed research approach employing mixed methodology within the fields of sociology and psychology for researching the phenomenon of living kidney donation is not very common.

Statistical methods that quantify the discourse about causal inferences in terms of possible sources of biases are becoming increasingly important to many social-science fields such as public policy, sociology, and education. These methods are also known as “robustness or sensitivity analyses”. A series of recent works (Frank [2000, Sociological Methods and Research 29: 147–194]; Pan and Frank [2003, Journal of Educational and Behavioral Statistics 28: 315– 337]; Frank and Min [2007, Sociological Methodology 37: 349–392]; and Frank et al. [2013, Educational Evaluation and Policy Analysis 35: 437–460]) on robustness analysis extends earlier methods. We implement these recent developments in Stata. In particular, we provide commands to quantify the percent bias necessary to invalidate an inference from a Rubin causal model framework and the robustness of causal inferences in terms of correlations associated with unobserved variables.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to examine the potential of life story for the teaching of sociology to Social Work students. It contains the results of a teaching experiment in higher education which aims to foster sociological imagination among students. Design/methodology/approach The study employs a mixed methodology. The quantitative data came from a survey handed out to the students with closed and open questions. The qualitative information came from the contents of class exercises in which the students had to connect the theoretical contents of the course of sociology with the biographical narratives of different research subjects. Findings The results reflect student satisfaction or appreciation regarding the use of the life story as a teaching resource, as well as a successful acquisition of sociological skills and knowledge, such as critical thinking, micro-macro connection and the interplay between structure and agency. Practical implications Life story and narrative methods should be employed in post-secondary education as teaching instruments. Originality/value The study contributes to expand the reflection on narrative techniques as a pedagogical tool. The paper provides several examples of class exercises with biographical narratives that have demonstrated to be successful for teaching sociology in higher education.

Abstract:
Purpose: The problem of introducing crowdsourcing technology into the practice of regional management is considered. The content aspect of crowdsourcing use at the regional level is analyzed. The basic elements of crowdsourcing potential are revealed. The article substantiates the possibility of a new technology of the interaction between the government and society – crowdsourcing on the basis of the results of a sociological survey of Russian and foreign experts. The article proposes a methodology for identifying and analyzing the technology of crowdsourcing, examines the main stages of the formation, and analyzes the implementation of crowdsourcing technology into the practice of regional management. Methodology: Based on the analysis of previous studies, the authors of the article formulated the definition of "crowdsourcing potential", which is understood as a system of interrelated elements that explains the main scientific approaches to improving social activity of the population, defines social objectives, methods and principles of management of crowdsourcing technology in regional governance. Result: Crowdsourcing technology in regional governance, moreover, is a communication, efficiently constructed and acting constantly, which means that several mandatory conditions must be met to ensure the communication process. Applications: This research can be used for universities, teachers, and students. Novelty/Originality: In this research, the model of Sociological Diagnostics of Crowdsourcing Technology in the Practice of Regional Management is presented in a comprehensive and complete manner.

Abstract:
The study’s objective is to develop a methodology for studying the conceptual foundations of pension legislation in three countries: the United Kingdom, France, and Russia. The following methods were used to perform the tasks set out in the introduction: analysis and synthesis, induction and deduction, systematic, sociological, statistical, formal-legal, comparative-legal, historical, and legal methods. The result of this work was the author’s methodology for studying the conceptual foundations of pension legislation. This methodology includes the following elements: definition and justification of the subject of research, establishing its spatial and temporal framework, development and justification of the author’s periodization of the conceptual foundations of pension legislation. In addition, as part of this study, the need to apply the conceptual foundations of pension legislation such methods of knowledge as dialectical approach, general scientific methods (analysis, synthesis, systematic), private scientific methods (sociological, statistical, mathematical), and private legal methods (formal-legal, comparative-legal, historical and legal) is justified. The choice of three specific countries is since they represent different models of pension provision and different legal families. The study proves the special methodological significance of considering pension as a combination of two interrelated elements: pension insurance and budget support. The study’s novelty is due to the problem statement (the conceptual foundations of the pension legislation of the United Kingdom, France, and Russia are the first to appear as the subject of the study), as well as the interdisciplinary nature of the proposed approaches. The developed methodology can be used to study pension and other social security legislation and be extended to other countries as objects of study.

Abstract:
In the course of sociological research about the Internet, an accompanying range of new methodological approaches have been developed to investigate usage, communication, processes of appropriation, and the virtuality of the Internet. However, the exploration of the Internet as a technological and material object as well as the question of how it is involved in human practices are seen more rarely. This paper presents a methodology of software-based recording and an analysis of the interactions between humans and the Internet, which are visible on the screen. Adding methods of usability and market research to sociological Internet research, this enables us to “move closer” to the technology and to get a detailed view of human practices and Internet “actions” on the interface; therewith, it will be possible to investigate how social practices proceed when Internet technologies are involved, how users handle the Internet and to what extent it enables, facilitates, limits, or hinders practices.

Статья посвящена обзору русскоязычных исследований в области лингвистического ландшафта. В настоящее время тематика этих исследований актуальна, поскольку обнаружился новый объект исследования - вербальная представленность социокультурного пространства как коммуникативное единство человека и его окружения. В статье представлена проблематика исследований, в том числе терминологическая, определяются объект и предмет исследования, методики и методология многоаспектности исследований лингвистического ландшафта. Многоаспектность исследований обусловлена мультимодальным характером воздействия лингвистического ландшафта и его взаимодействия с другими экологическими системами. Важнейшими аспектами признаются философский, культурологический, социологический, психологический и собственно лингвистический. Более того, лингвистический ландшафт рассматривается как механизм государственной политики, как инструмент регулирования языковой политики определенного региона и даже государства в целом. The article is devoted to a rеview of Russian-language research in the field of linguistic landscape. The problematics of this research is now relevant due to a new object of study - the verbal representation of the socio-cultural space as a communicative system of the individual and environment. The article presents the research problematics in this area, including its terminology, defines the object and subject of study, and methods and methodology of the multidimensional research of linguistic landscape. The multifaceted nature of research is determined by the multimodal nature of the impact of linguistic landscape on, and its interaction with, other ecological systems. The philosophical, cultural, sociological, psychological and linguistic aspects are recognized as the most important ones. Additionally, linguistic landscape is viewed as a mechanism of state policy and an instrument for regulating the language policy of a particular region and the state as a whole.

Abstract:
Some theologians have adopted ethnographic methods in their theological work. This innovation brings exciting possibilities to theological work for grasping local social situations and structures, although it also brings significant new challenges. As a sociologist who uses ethnographic methods and pays attention to theological orientations and their effects, I view the work of ethnography as a powerful methodology filled with both possibilities and perils. The newfound enthusiasm for ethnography among theologians may not yet adequately recognize the hazards involved in the use of qualitative research methods for generating valid empirical observations. Insights generated by participant observation are constantly at risk of imposition of personal presumptions and asserted “truths,” especially when researchers enter the field with strongly held convictions and compelling worldviews. In this paper, a distinction between “found theologies” and “imposed theologies” is offered as a heuristic for conversation in the hope of further substantiating a sound basis for future scholarship.

Abstract:
Abstract The article discusses interpretive epistemology in international relations (IR) and its advantages to address the field's sociological composition, its scholars’ identity, and knowledge structuration. The research proposes to engage in sociological reflexivity on IR methods and the way in which knowledge accumulation and structuration are driven by canonical assumptions of what are considered “normal”/“good” scientific procedures. The central argument focuses on interpretive epistemological approaches as possible venues for research to participate in the collective effort to address, and redress, the imbalance between the sociology of the field and its knowledge production and structuration processes. By allowing dialogue around meanings and interpretation among increasingly diverse members, an interpretive stance on IR opens the floor to criticism and rival interpretations. More specifically, the paper presents the methodology of interpretive phenomenological analysis as a method which both emphasizes context and actor specificity with regard to the subject of study and fully acknowledges the researcher's identity and voice in scientific inquiry.

Abstract:
This paper contributes to debates about the implications of digital technology for social research by proposing the concept of the redistribution of methods. In the context of digitization, I argue, social research becomes noticeably a distributed accomplishment: online platforms, users, devices and informational practices actively contribute to the performance of digital social research. This also applies more specifically to social research methods, and this paper explores the phenomenon in relation to two specific digital methods, online network and textual analysis, arguing that sociological research stands much to gain from engaging with their distribution, both normatively and analytically speaking. I distinguish four predominant views on the redistribution of digital social methods: methods-as-usual, big methods, virtual methods and digital methods. Taking up this last notion, I propose that a redistributive understanding of social research opens up a new approach to the re-mediation of social methods in digital environments. I develop this argument through a discussion of two particular online research platforms: the Issue Crawler, a web-based platform for hyperlink analysis, and the Co-Word Machine, an online tool of textual analysis currently under development. Both these tools re-mediate existing social methods, and both, I argue, involve the attempt to render specific methodology critiques effective in the online realm, namely critiques of the authority effects implicit in citation analysis. As such, these methods offer ways for social research to intervene critically in digital social research, and more specifically, to endorse and actively pursue the redistribution of social methods online.

Emphasis is placed on determination of the key criteria of comprehensive approach towards the analysis of art: each of the three scientific fields may have its own unique criteria for such analysis, but there also universal criteria that allow most fully assessing the essence and purpose of art, considering the general trends of its development in modern reality. The subject of this research is the methodology of comprehensive analysis of art using the instruments of sociology, culturology, and art history. The main conclusions are as follows: 1) disclosure of the content of the methodology of studying art; 2) determination of various criteria for comprehensive analysis of art within the framework of sociology, culturology, and art history; 3) demonstration of capabilities of using certain criteria in analyzing the essence of art and artworks; 4) focus on the social dimension of art, touching upon the heuristic value of the methods of applied sociological research; 5) characteristics of the capabilities of studying the symbolic nature of art in the context of culturology; 6) assessment of the development trends of the methodology of modern art history.

The article discusses the importance of travel practices in the structure of social relations between religious subjects in the field of involvement in interfaith relations. The results of a sociological study of travels to holy places are presented in a combination of quantitative and qualitative methodology, questionnaire survey and semiotic analysis of texts. A qualitative approach to the study of religiosity provides an in-depth interpretation of the religious practices pecularities. However, the quantitative representation is relevant to identify general trends in the formation of strategies of religious behaviour. The model combinatig qualitative and quantitative methods of studying tourist practices provides the possibility of their complex analysis. The experience of carried out sociological research shows how qualitative research data can clearly complement the structural characteristics of religious travel (quantitative indicators) with the features of the subjectivity of such travel. The study found: 1) a religious journey involves the implementation of everyday practices of reproduction of meanings and participation in intercultural interaction, as well as the implementation of sacred rituals; 2) a notable number of the religious population in Belarus has experience of religious travel, but pilgrimage is not a regular practice for a significant part of them; 3) the iconic pilgrimage structure is constructed in the virtual verbal texts of Belarusians involved in the daily practice of travelling to holy places. It is formed by several components of the meaning of the «path»: life, the spiritual path, search, cognition, communication, unity, collective emotions.

Abstract:
The article analyzes ideas of representatives of the directions in the Positivist School of Criminal Law and Criminology, namely: criminal-anthropological (biological), criminal-sociological (sociological), bio-sociological (positivist) direction. The research indicates that the main feature of the criminal-anthropological (biological) direction lies in the fact that its representatives considered the criminal as a special kind of the human race and a special abnormal creature endowed with certain physical and mental anomalies. The commission of a crime for such a being is a natural necessity.Therepresentatives of the criminal-sociological (sociological) direction mainly skeptically assessed the conclusions of supporters of the anthropological direction, who looked for the causes of crime precisely in social factors, noted the importance of the interaction of social, political and economic factors and expressed confidence that it would be useless to try to influence crime without changing the social conditions that lead to crime. The main ideas of representatives of different directions in legal positivism in criminal law and criminology are considered and their significance for the present is determined. It was established that the socio-philosophical methodology is characterized by a close connection between speculative methods of cognition and empirical researches. It is noted that the impact of public lifeon all spheres is one of the most effective ways to combat crime. All authorities, as well as scientists, should identify and analyze the existing links between modern social changes and criminal processes taking place in society. A comprehensive analysis of the causes of crime can help reduce crime rates

Abstract:
Different approaches to definition of “reputation” concept and its presence in different disciplines’ discourse result in development of large number of reputation measurement approaches. The closest approaches to the sociological understanding of reputation are the RQ (CRQ) and RepTrak™ ones. These approaches were developed by western authors and have not been validated in the post-Soviet territory yet. The paper reviewed the verification of RepTrak™ methodology’s reliability and validity, and analyzed the terminological differences between the types of validity used by the authors of the methodology and their semantic counterparts, traditional for sociology. It is noted in the article that the developers of the methodology did not offer a unified model of corporate reputation; validation was carried out separately for two reputation constructs. The first construct confirms the connection between the emotional component of reputation and articulated willingness to act, the second — between the emotional and cognitive components of reputation. Using empirical data collected in Ukraine, Russia and Kazakhstan, the authors of the article reproduced the procedures and approaches used by the methodology developers for confirmation of the methodology’s reliability and validity. To this end, authors of the article used confirmatory factor analysis and built structural models that fully correspond to the models used by the developers of the model. The authors of the article compare the parameters of the models and their criteria of fitting to the empirical data. As a result of a comparison done for each reputational construct a conclusion about the possibility of using the emotional reputation index in all three countries was done. It was concluded also that it is possible to use a complete original methodology for reputation research in Ukraine and Russia and it is required to modify it for Kazakhstan.

Abstract:
The solution of both theoretical and practical problems related to the legal support of integration processes determines the relevance of the search for appropriate methodological approaches to the study of this problem. Reference to the problems of methodology of studying the legal nature and law of integration of interstate associations is important, as there is still no uniformity in the theoretical interpretation and methods of research of legal integration. The purpose of this article is to consider the possibilities of application of interdisciplinary, multidisciplinary, transdisciplinary (system) approaches to the study of certain problems related to the legal support of integration. The analysis of the chosen problems is based on the provisions of domestic and foreign scientific works devoted to the problems of the methodology of jurisprudence. As a result of the research, the author comes to the conclusion that in the conditions of the global world complex objects of reality, which also include integration, can not be cognizable within one scientific discipline, which is a significant argument in favor of referring to interdisciplinary, multidisciplinary and systemic methodology. The choice of the appropriate methodological approach to the study of integration depends on: the essence and characteristics of the object of study; the objectives of the study; the purpose of the study. No less important aspect in the study of integration is the appeal to the axiological aspects of integration processes, and therefore, the study of various aspects of regional economic integration, for example, cultural, sociological, psychological, aimed at the study of values and goals of integration, the state of society, the role of man in the integration process.

Thing. The statistical parameters used in the study and determination of indicators obtained during the dental study of workers of two industrial organizations are considered. The goal is to evaluate the methods of statistical analysis used in the interpretation of indicators obtained during a dental study of employees of two industrial organizations. Methodology. A comprehensive dental examination and a sociological survey of 370 employees of the SEZ “Alabuga” and 297 employees of JSC “Chemical Plant named after L.Ya. Karpova "(Mendeleevsk). Statistical data collection, processing and analysis of the results were recorded on a personal computer in the spreadsheet environment of Microsoft Office Excel 2016. Statistical linear regression analysis of the data and interpretation of the results were performed using IBM computer software and SPSS software package (PASW Statistics 20). Results. The materials presented in the article are based on the analysis and study of various methods of parametric and nonparametric statistical analysis. Moreover, the use of the discriminant analysis module of the STATISTICA system contains a large set of manipulations to perform multiple functional analysis, including the module of factor and cluster analysis. To analyze qualitative data, change frequencies, determine the significance of differences of one attribute from another, the chi-square criterion was used. Comparison of empirical (actual) and expected (theoretical) results was carried out using the agreement criterion (Pearson), the absence or presence of statistically significant differences ― using the value of the exact Fisher test, the presence or absence of a specific factor in a particular group ― using a statistical indicator of the odds ratio and confidence interval. Conclusions. Thus, the data obtained make it possible to assess the degree of damage to hard tissues of teeth and periodontal tissues, and the effectiveness of dental care. The use of various statistical methods in the analysis of dental research data contributes to the modernization of the organization of dental care.

Abstract:
Developing democracy institutions and citizen participation in state affairs, the world community focuses on postcolonial studies, which allow us to identify new perspectives, set new priorities in various areas, in law and public administration among others. In Arctic countries, postcolonial discourse has an impact on the methodology of research related to indigenous issues, and this makes possible to understand specific picture of the world and ideas about what is happening in the world. Moreover, the traditions of Russian state and governance are specific and interaction between indigenous peoples and public authorities should be studied with a special research methodology which would reflect the peculiarities of domestic public law and aimed at solving legal issue and enrich public policy. The objective of the paper is to present a new integrated methodology that includes a system of philosophical, anthropological, socio-psychological methods, as well as methods of comparative analysis and scenario development methods to involve peripheral communities into decision-making process of planning the socio-economic development in one of Russia’s Arctic regions — the Yamal-Nenets Autonomous District and to justify and further legislatively consolidate the optimal forms of interaction between public authorities and indigenous communities of the North. In 2020, the Arctic Research Center conducted a sociological survey in the Shuryshkararea of the Yamal-Nenets Autonomous District, which seems to limit existing approaches to identifying public opinion about prospects for developing villages and organizing life of their residents. Our proposed methodology for taking into account the views of indigenous peoples can help to overcome the identified limitations.

The article is devoted to the study of precarious employment in the social and labor sphere and the possibility of using systematized sociological data to measure the precarity level of labor relations. The object of the research is young workers (15-29 years old) employed in the industrial and services sphere. Based on the cluster analysis of data from a mass survey conducted in the Ural Federal District in 2018, gender, sectoral and territorial features of the precarity level of labor practices of three social types of young workers were identified: “earning”, “surviving” and “adapted”. The aim of this study is to develop a methodology and measure the precarity level of labor relations among working youth of the Ural Federal District. The author applies general scientific and special research methods, including the analysis of cluster data from a mass sociological survey using the constructed logical precarity index of the labor relations (Ipto). The results of the study may be useful to the state public authorities to measure the precarity level of labor relations in their region and develop regional target-oriented programs for the efficient use of labor resources.

SummarySubject and purpose of work: The article compares cleaning services markets in Warsaw and Moscow. The productivity of work is the subject of the research, but not in the traditional neoclassical interpretation, but within the institutional economy. The aim of the article is to show new ways of analyzing work productivity using institutional methodology.Materials and methods: The article uses a conventional method, which is a combination of institutional and neoclassical methodology. It covers sociological research tools and statistical methods of data processing used for quantitative analysis as part of the institutional approach.Results: Similar parameters of human capital indicators were obtained in the employees of both markets. The indicators of opportunism in the representatives of the employees of the Moscow market are much higher, which significantly reduces the quantitative values of the institutional work productivity in Eastern markets.Conclusions: In order to increase institutional work productivity in Eastern European markets (Russia) and to reduce opportunistic behavior of transaction participants, it is necessary to modernize institutional environment in these countries.

Abstract:
This research presents the results of a sociological study on the media behavior of the adult population of Kazakhstan. The aim of the research is to identify the specifics of media consumption of digital technologies and media preferences of the adult population. The main task of our empirical research is to determine the mechanism of access to the main technical means, and the media behavior of active users. The research methodology includes quantitative and qualitative methods: a survey among the target group, sampling over 2500 respondents from all regions of Kazakhstan. We conclude that three quarters of the respondents will use three main channels: television, informal channels and Internet resources. Currently, there is a preserved tradition of formalized passive perception of information through television. The results of the study can be used in applied work in media marketing and digital business.

Abstract:
Past research indicates that Sociology is a low-consensus discipline, where different schools of thought have distinct expectations about suitable scientific practices. This division of Sociology into different subfields is to a large extent related to methodology and choices between qualitative or quantitative research methods. Relying on theoretical constructs of the academic prestige economy, boundary demarcation and taste for research, we examine the methodological divide in generalist Sociology journals. Using automated text analysis for 8737 abstracts of articles published between 1995 and 2017, we discover evidence of this divide, but also of an entanglement between methodological choices and different research topics. Moreover, our results suggest a marginally increasing time trend for the publication of quantitative research in generalist journals. We discuss how this consolidation of methodological practices could enforce the entrenchment of different schools of thought, which ultimately reduces the potential for innovative and effective sociological research.

Abstract:
The subject of the research is the mechanism of overcoming the counteraction to the crimes of investigation and mechanism of marking formation, patterns of overcoming the counteraction to the crimes of investigation, their technological and criminalistic support, tactical and criminalistic support, methodological and criminalistic support of activities performed by law enforcement agencies and court. This is the first research to create a criminalistic teaching about overcoming the counteraction to the crimes of investigation and to develop an integral concept of such study as a combination of interrelated ideas and concepts. The methodology of the research includes general research methods (observation, description, comparison, experiment and modelling as sense-based research methods, analysis, synthesis, induction, deduction, analogy, hypothesis and abstraction as logical research methods, measurement, calculation and geometrical construction as mathematical methods). The author has also used special criminalistics methods (criminalistic identification, dactyloscopy, odorology, planning of investigative activities and organisation of investigation) as well as special methods from other branches of science such as physical, chemical and physical-chemical methods, anthropological and anthropometric methods, sociological methods and psychological methods. The scientific novelty of the research is caused by the fact that the author offers a new branch of criminalistics, criminalistic teaching about overcoming the counteraction to the crimes of investigation and development of the integral concept thereof based on rules and patterns of criminal procedure.&nbsp;

Abstract:
Introduction: The article was written with the aim of improving the method of integrative study of the subject of the native language with literature through a literary text. Materials and methods: When covering the topic, the following methods were used: comparative analysis, pedagogical observation, the study of advanced pedagogical experience, sociological methods questioning, conversation), pedagogical experiment, mathematical and statistical analysis. Research results: In the 2015-2016 academic year, before the start of experimental classes in 9 grades, in which these lessons are intended, in order to find out the knowledge, skills and abilities of students in finding a literary text, artistic visual aids and types of poetic art, their name and explanation, test papers. After the lessons, on the basis of experimental materials, a mathematical calculation of the results of control works was carried out in order to compare the qualitative changes before and after the experiment. Discussion and conclusions: The increase in the number of literary texts in the textbooks "Native Language" for grades 5-9 has created the opportunity and the need to work on artistic visual aids and types of poetic art through these texts. The expediency of the implementation of external and bilateral integration of native language lessons with literature lessons through literary texts is substantiated, considering such basic approaches as communication, focus on speech activity, ingenuity, awareness and differentiation, such principles.

Abstract: The present article presents the personal experience of the author with research methodologies.Some limits of the social scientific research are being analyzed, regarding two of the stages of research:theoretical framework and operationalization; this is the way in which the validity of the criteria and theconstruct validity came into discussion. At the same time, the character of sociological theories and theirutility in scientific research are under discussion. Reasons for which qualitative is chosen are listed despitethe constant disapproval of this method in Romanian sociology (and it’s marginalization in Central – EastEurope). The advantages of qualitative research in socio-human sciences are presented (what is being researched,through what methods, with what results). The special case of using the focus-group at a large scaleis being analyzed (its use without following two of the major qualitative principals: theoretical samplingand theoretical saturation). The article advocates for the usage of qualitative and it is written in a personaland provocative style.Key words: sociological research methodology, qualitative research, quantitative research, validity.

Abstract:
The article discusses the gradual abandonment of the efforts to verify hypotheses and complex theoretical assumptions in the social sciences by observation. The first section shows the classical understanding that emphasized the importance of the theoretically directed observation. The second section shows the efforts towards inclusion of the observed in the interpretation of observations. The third section contains an analysis of the impact of today?s strict division on the qualitative and quantitative methodology. This influence can be seen in a complete separation of the structured observation and participatory observation, the disintegration of observation as a research procedure, its replacement by ethnography and case study method, as well as abandoning more general theoretical ambition within qualitative methodology. The fourth section analyzes the epistemological consequences of efforts to understand the fieldwork primarily as a power relationship and to transform the observed into the subjects of research. Development of the attitudes on the relationship between theory and research in the application of methods of observation in social sciences is associated with theoretical eclecticism in the field of contemporary sociological theory and distancing from philosophy of science with its understanding of the role of research programs and research traditions in the field of growth of scientific knowledge.

Abstract:
Purpose – Intervention evaluations have not always accounted for long-term implementation of interventions. The purpose of this paper is to explore implementation of a primary care intervention during the lifespan of the trial and beyond. Design/methodology/approach – Eight general practices participated in the trial (four control and four intervention). In-depth interviews (with nine GPs and four practices nurses who delivered the intervention) and observation methods were employed. Thematic analysis was utilized and Normalization Process Theory (NPT) constructs were compared with emergent themes. Findings – Macro-level policy imperatives shaped practice priorities which resulted in the “whole system” new intervention not being perceived to be sustainable. Continued routinization of the intervention into usual care beyond the lifespan of the funded study was dependent on individualized monitoring and taking forward tacit knowledge. Research limitations/implications – The authors discuss the implications of these findings for sociological theories of implementation and understanding outcomes of research led complex interventions. Originality/value – The study describes the complex interplay between macro processes and individual situated practices and contributes to understanding if, how, and why interventions are sustained beyond initial “research push”. The value of the study lies in describing the conditions and potential consequences of long-term implementation, which might be translated to other contexts.

Abstract:
The author in the article on the basis of the results of a specific sociological study shows the importance of traditions and innovations in the system of managing Russian higher education to ensure the educational security of the state in the conditions of the transition of the world economy to science-intensive technologies, the unification of legislation, and the integration of production. The technology of investigating the problem is presented on the basis of a complex of theoretical and empirical methods. The methodology of studying education as an open system in which traditions are subjected to destruction by the forces and means of a hybrid war is revealed. Possible threats, dangers, objectivity and subjectivity of the conflict of traditions and innovations in the management system of higher education are shown. The author substantiates the necessity to minimize the conflict by the organization of strategic management of the main institutions of the society. The shortcomings of our system of higher education management are revealed, which do not allow implementing the best practices of the Bologna process. The rationale for introducing innovations and preserving domestic traditions is presented. The ways of prevention of conflicts of traditions and innovations in the system of management of higher education in Russia are determined. The results of the study of the conflict of traditions and innovations in the system of management of Russian higher education showed that the introduction of Western educational innovations led to destructive conflicts. The main reasons for the contradictions between traditions and innovations are shown.

Abstract:
The subject of this research is the theoretical and practical bases for overcoming obstruction of criminal investigations, criminal phenomenon of obstruction of justice, elements of obstruction, as well as measures for discovering criminal obstruction. The work is aimed at determining the characteristic and innate elements of obstruction of justice, research of the stages, determination of types, tactics and means of this counteraction for putting forth criminalistics versions and investigative planning using the means and methods of overcoming obstruction of investigations. The research methodology of the general scientific methods, including sensory-rational scientific methods (observation, description, comparison, experiment and simulation), logical methods (analysis, synthesis, induction, deduction, analogy, hypothesis and abstraction), mathematical methods (measurement, calculation, geometric construction); methods of criminalistics (forensic identification, fingerprinting, odorology, planning of investigative actions, organization of investigation); and special methods of other sciences, which include physical, chemical and physical-chemical methods, anthropological and anthropometric methods, sociological and psychological methods. The scientific novelty of this research is defined by the aspect of inquiry into criminal phenomenon of obstruction of justice, overcoming the obstruction, formation of criminalistics doctrine on overcoming obstruction of justice, emergence and establishment of criminalistics doctrine for overcoming obstruction of justice, as well as formation and completion of criminalistics doctrine in its final form as a holistic system of theoretical positions and practical recommendations.
