Метою статті єздійснення рефлексивного аналізу онтофеноменальної сутності особистості, зважа-ючи на її аксіопсихологічні і смисложиттєві пріоритети. Основні завдання пошукування центруються довкола аналітичного окреслення аксіопсихологічних складових частин особистості, дослідження системи сенсів і смислів людини в контексті її життєвих домагань, віднаходження онтофеноменальних формовиявів екзистенційних запитів людського буття. Методи дослідження: аналізу і систематизації наукової літератури, порівняння та узагальнення, науково-психологічного методологування і соціогуманітарного теоретизування. Результати. Ставлення людини до дійсності та соціального довкілля опосередковується внутрішньо прийнятими цінностями, які становлять екзистенційне осереддя її буття. Формування, розвиток і реалізація моральних, інтелектуальних та естетичних запитів й інтересів особистості у процесі її життєдіяльності опосередковуються системою аксіопсихологічних імперативів, вищим ступенем організації яких є система сенсів і смислів людини. Сутнісне розмежування смислу і сенсу полягає в тому, що перше утримує стратегічні шляхи існування людини у її духовному самоплеканні, а друге опосе-редковується чуттєвим, досвідним сприйняттям особою дійсності, що є основою визначення тактичних пріоритетів її життєактивності. Сенси і смисли людини формуються під впливом її вартісної складової і виявляються у вчинку як сутнісному осередді людського існування. У повноцінному вираженні вчинок завжди є формовиявом духовного розвитку суб’єкта зі сталою системою моральних ідеалів, суспільних домагань, персоніфікованих цінностей і вособистіснених смислів. Висновки. Pезультатом взаємодії людини і світу є віднаходження особистістю певних розумових узагальнень і синтезований вияв її життєвих пріоритетів на шляху до чуттєво збагаченої екзистенції, таланту сприймати та повномірно переживати дійсність, надихати сенсом кожний момент, значуще сприймати фрагмент чи цілісну подію свого буття, насичувати його індивідуально неповторним змістом – творити своє Я у відповідності з персоніфікованими смисложиттєвими орієнтирами. Ключові слова: аксіопсихологія, буття, вартості, сенси, смисли, смисложиттєві орієнтації, цін-нісно-смислова сфера. The purpose of the article is to carry out a reflexive analysis of the ontophenomenal essence of the individual, taking into account his axiopsychological and meaning-life priorities. The main tasks of search are centered around the analytical delineation of the axiopsychological constituents of the individual, the study of the system of senses and meanings of the person in the context of his life aspirations, finding ontophenomenal forms of existential inquiries of human being.Research methods: analysis and systematization of scientific literature, comparisons and generalizations, scientific-psychological methodologization and socio-humanitarian theorizing.Results. The relation of human to reality and the social environment is mediated by internally accepted values, which constitute the existential focus of his being. Formation, development and realization of moral, intellectual and esthetic demands and interests of the individual in the process of her life activity are mediated by a system of axiopsychological imperatives, the highest degree of organization of which is the system of human senses and meaning. The essential distinction between meaning and sense is that the first contains strategic ways of human existence in its spiritual self-expression, and the latter is mediated by a sensual, experienced perception of the individual of reality, which is the basis for determining the tactical priorities of his life-activity. The senses and meanings of a person are formed under the influence of his values component and are manifested in an act as an essential focus of human existence. In full expression, an act is always a form of the spiritual development of a subject with a constant system of moral ideals, social aspirations, personified values and personal meanings. Conclusions. The result of the interaction of human and the world is the finding of certain mental generalizations by the personality and the synthesized revealing of her life priorities on the way to the sensually enriched existence, the talent to perceive and fully experience the reality, to inspire the meaning with every moment, to perceive the fragment or whole event of one's being, to sate it with an individually unique content – to create yourself in accordance with personalized meaning-life orientive.Key words: axiopsihology, being, values, senses, meanings, meaning-life orientations, value-semantic sphere.

Abstract. This paper aimed to assess whether differences in the way to conceive happiness, measured by the Orientations to Happiness measure, were associated with specific reactions to negative events. We hypothesized that among orientations to pleasure (portraying hedonism), to meaning (representing a eudaimonic approach to life), and to engagement (derived from the experience of flow), orientation to meaning would have displayed a stronger protective role against recent negative and potentially stressful events. After providing a validation of the Italian version of the Orientations to Happiness measure (Study 1), we performed regression analyses of the three orientations on positive and negative emotions linked to a self-relevant negative event (Study 2), and moderation analyses assessing the interactive effects of orientations to happiness and stressful events on well-being indicators (Study 3). Our findings supported the hypotheses. In Study 2, meaning was associated with positive emotions characterized by a lower activation (contentment and interest) compared to the positive emotions associated with pleasure (amusement, eagerness, and happiness). In Study 3, only meaning buffered the effect of recent potentially stressful events on satisfaction with life and positive affect. Results suggest that orientation to meaning might help individuals to better react to negative events.

The study results of life meaning, career orientations and emotional burnout syndrome among representatives of socionomic (helping) professions have been described. The purpose of the work was to identify the characteristics of emotional burnout, career and life meaning orientations of the personality and their relationships. To achieve the goal of the study, V. V. Boyko’s “Method for diagnosing the level of emotional burnout”, D. A. Leontiev’s test of “Life Sense Orientations” (LSO), and E. Shein’s “Career Anchors test” have been used. It has been established, that the “Resistance” phase is in the formation stage, the “Stress” and “Depletion” phases were not formed. The leading career orientation of specialists is “professional competence”. As a result of the study, the interrelation of indicators of emotional burnout, career and life meaning orientations, has been identified. High scores on the scales of the LSO: “goals in life”, “life process”, “locus of control – life”, “locus of control – I” have been found. It has been established that career-oriented industrial professionals are more susceptible to emotional burnout. The article is a contribution to the study of various aspects of helping a person experiencing emotional burnout syndrome.

The article analyzes the role of the value component and life-meaning orientations in the formation of tolerance. Features of life meaning and value orientations of psychology students with different levels of communicative tolerance. The importance of the formation of communicative tolerance in students. The article presents the results of an empirical study of the features of value and meaning-life orientations in psychology students with different levels of general communicative tolerance. The study was attended by students of DSTU and SFU in the number of 60 people. Students of the humanities (psychologists) were selected. Of these, 35 are girls and 25 are boys. The age of the respondents is from 18 to 22 years. To confirm the hypotheses based on the assumption that differences in life-meaning and value orientations can be found in psychology students with different levels of general communicative tolerance, we used a set of methods: the method “General communicative Tolerance” by V. V. Boyko, the method of “Life-meaning orientations” modified by D. A. Leontiev, the questionnaire “Value orientations” by M. Rokich. It is empirically established that there are significant differences in the meaning-life and value orientations of psychology students with different levels of general communicative tolerance.

Abstract. The research problem lies in the need to study the contradiction between the high values of life-meaning orientations and the reflexivity of employees of the internal affairs bodies. Purpose of the article: to investigate the indicated contradiction and reveal the peculiarities of the subjectivity of the personality of employees. The analysis and interpretation of the characteristics of the personal development of employees in lifelong education was carried out by the method of clustering the sample using the values of the tests "Life-meaning orientations" D. Krambo, L. Makholik, adaptation - D.А. Leontiev, reflexivity (A.V. Karpov), as well as the subjectivity of a professional's personality and focus on the personal development of an employee, including in lifelong education based on the author's methodology. The work used the correlation analysis of the studied features by means of nonparametric statistical criteria (Spearman's rank correlation coefficient), cluster analysis. As a result of the study, it was revealed that reflexivity, orientation towards development in professional activity and focus on continuing education in clusters are expressed unevenly. The hypothesis of a strict inverse relationship between manifestations of reflexivity and life-meaning orientations was not confirmed. At the same time, a feature of the subject-personal orientation of employees is an insufficient connection between reflexivity and high values of meaningful orientations, subordination of the personal principle to the "professional role and position" (according to the terms of V.A. Lefebvre) due to the subordination and discipline in the profession, as well as the substitution of the moral imperative with legal norms. Strategies with extremely high values of life-meaning orientations of adult employees of internal affairs bodies, which have a negative correlation with reflexivity, regardless of subjectivity or the severity of orientation towards development in the profession, are assessed by us as unfavorable for personal development.

ABSTRACT
Spirituality has been recognized as a positive factor in the lives of older adults, especially as it influences their emotional, mental, and physical well-being. This convenience sample study included 17 older adults residing at a faith based continuing care retirement community in Florida. The sample was represented by Caucasian older adults with an average age of 84 years, highly educated, majority Protestant and mostly female. Spiritual life reviews were conducted using spiritual life maps (Hodge, 2005) and semi-structured interview questions. Erikson's epigenetic stage of ego-integrity was used along with Butler's life review process and Tornstam's gerotranscendence as a conceptual framework for understanding late life development and spirituality in older adults. This mostly qualitative study used a hermeneutic phenomenological approach to analyze the responses to the open-ended interview questions about spirituality across the life-time. Ego-integrity was measured at the beginning and end of the spiritual life review study.
Paired t-tests found that participation in the spiritual life review did not influence the ego integrity scores of participants. Specifically, there were no statistically significant difference between the pre ego integrity score (M=82.94, SD= 8.235) and the post ego integrity score (M=84.47, SD= 7.551); t (16) = -.769 p= .453. However, in comparison, the qualitative analysis revealed that the spiritual life review does influence ego-integrity in some participants. Additionally, the spiritual life review confirms gerotranscendence and contributes to information about spiritual development in the lives of older adults. The conclusion offers a discussion about the study's limitations, strengths, implications for future research, and suggestions for clinical practice.

Full textAbstract:
Objet de recherche encore émergent en psychologie existentielle, les communautés sont à interroger pour mieux appréhender le rapport de l’individu à son existence. Cette thèse s’attache précisément à comprendre le rôle des interactions communautaires dans le mécanisme d’appropriation du sens pour la construction de son parcours professionnel et de sa vie. La communauté est définie dans cette étude comme « un groupe social formel et/ou informel dont l’individu est membre, uni autour d’échanges communs pluriels et d’organisations d’actions, partageant des intérêts, des aspirations et des valeurs communes ». Cinq branches d’études, à savoir, la psychologie de l’orientation, la psychologie sociale, en articulation avec la sociologie, la psychologie communautaire puis la psychologie existentielle ont permis d’explorer le sens de la communauté. Aucune étude n’ayant encore mis en relation le concept de la communauté avec les concepts emblématiques de la psychologie existentielle (Bernaud, 2018), un essai a été proposé. Cet essai a notamment permis de mettre en concordance les concepts emblématiques de la psychologie existentielle avec le modèle ternaire de la spiritualité (de Jager Meezenbroek et al., 2012b) afin que la communauté puisse exister/se reconnaître. Par ailleurs, pour explorer ces construits, le recours à une méthodologie mixte a été nécessaire. Une recherche exploratoire qualitative, suivant la méthode de « l’Investigateur Multistade de l’Identité Sociale (IMIS) » (Zavalloni & Louis-Guérin, 1984) a été menée auprès de cinq membres de cinq communautés différentes françaises, à savoir une communauté religieuse (Protestante), une communauté virtuelle (Pédagogie interactive), une communauté politique (les Républicains), une communauté humaniste (le Droit humain) et une communauté sociale (l’Accorderie). En sus, une recherche quantitative avec les cinq mêmes communautés a été réalisée auprès d’un échantillon de 101 participants. Différents instruments de mesure ont été retenus, à savoir l’échelle d’épanouissement psychologique (Diener et al., 2010 ; Villieux et al., 2016), l’échelle du sens de la vie (Steger et al., 2006), l’échelle de l’authenticité (Wood et al., 2008 ; Grégoire et al., 2014) et l’échelle de détermination du projet professionnelle (Sovet et al., 2020) en lien avec l’indice du sentiment d’appartenance communautaire (Chavis et al., 1986 ; Perkins et al., 1990 ; Saïas et al., 2018). Les résultats montrent que la communauté contribue pour les membres à construire leur identité psychosociale en relation avec leur « vrai-self » existentiel (Bernaud, 2018, p. 189), à donner un sens à leur vie, à les amener à un épanouissement socio-psychologique et à favoriser leur insertion sociale pour qu’in fine qu’ils prennent leur juste place dans la communauté humaine. À la lumière de ces résultats, il est créé une séance 8, complémentaire au dispositif d’accompagnement au sens de la vie et au sens du travail (SVST) développé par Bernaud et al. (2015, 2019), nommée « Développer le sens de sa vie en cultivant ses liens aux autres et aux communautés sociales ». Elle est conçue pour les bénéficiaires du dispositif d’accompagnement SVST et a pour vocation d’être mise au service des psychologues praticiens et des conseillers dans le champ de l’orientation professionnelleStill an emerging topic for research in existential psychology, communities should be questioned if one wants to understand better the relationship of Individuals to their existences. This thesis focuses precisely on the understanding of the role of community interactions in the mechanism of appropriation of meaning for the construction of one's professional career and one's life. In this study, a community is defined as « a formal and/or informal social group of which the individual is a member, united around several shared exchanges and organisations of actions, having common interests, aspirations and values ». Five areas of expertise, namely, counseling psychology, social psychology in conjunction with sociology, community psychology and existential psychology, allowed us to investigate the meaning of communities. Since no study had ever established a connection between the concept of community and the emblematic concepts of existential psychology (Bernaud, 2018), a new approach has been suggested. In particular, this new approach made it possible to bring together the emblematic concepts of existential psychology with the ternary model of spirituality (de Jager Meezenbroek et al., 2012b) so that the community can exist/recognize itself. Moreover, in order to explore these constructs, it was necessary to turn to a mixed methodology. A qualitative exploratory research, following the method of the « Multi-level Investigator of Social Identity (IMIS) » (Zavalloni & Louis-Guérin, 1984) was carried out with five members of five different French communities, namely a religious community. (Protestant), a virtual community (Interactive pedagogy), a political community (the Republicans), a humanist community (Human Rights) and a social community (the Accorderie). In addition, a quantitative research with the same five communities was carried out with a sample of 101 participants. Different measuring tools were used, namely the psychological development scale (Diener et al., 2010; Villieux et al., 2016), the meaning of life scale (Steger et al., 2006), the scale of authenticity (Wood et al., 2008 ; Grégoire et al., 2014) and the scale of career decidedness (Sovet et al., 2020) in connection with the index of feeling of community belonging (Chavis et al., 1986 ; Perkins et al., 1990 ; Saïas et al., 2018). The results show that communities contribute to the building of the members’ psychological identities in relation to their existential « true-selves » (Bernaud, 2018, p. 189), to give meaning to their lives, to stimulate their socio-personal psychological developments and to promote their social integration so that they ultimately takes their rightful places in the human community. In accordance with these results, a session 8 was created, complementary to the counseling based on/about life and work meaning developed by Bernaud et al. (2015, 2019), named « Developing the meaning of one's life by cultivating one’s ties to others and to social communities ». It is designed for beneficiaries of the SVST counseling and is intended to be used by practicing psychologists and counselors in the field of vocational guidance

The study investigated the relationship among attachment orientations, attachment figures, meaning in life and depressive emotions. Three hundred forty-two elderly persons at age 65 to 90 years from the Pingtung Evergreen College were asked to complete the RAAS-C(Revised Adult Attachment Scale, Chinese Version), the WHOTO scale (Who to Attachment Scale), the GDS-SF15(Geriatric Depression Scale-Short Form 15), and the Purpose in Life Test(PIL). By performing descriptive statistics, cluster analyses, chi-square testing and hierarchical multiple regression in data analysis, four major findings were as follow: 1. Most of the elders had one attachment figure, and the most frequent primary attachment figures were romantic partners. 2. The elders who perceived different economic situation had a significant effect on attachment orientations and elders in different gender, educational level, and marital status had a significant effect on attachment figures. 3. Attachment figures and attachment orientations could predict the meaning in life, especially the romantic partner as a primary attachment figure. 4. Attachment figures, attachment orientations and meaning in life could predict the depressive emotions, particularly the meaning in life. According to the results, the researcher offered some suggestions for professional workers and further studies.

Dissertação de Mestrado em Temas de Psicologia do Desenvolvimento apresentada à Faculdade de Psicologia e de Ciências da EducaçãoO presente estudo teve como objetivo principal conhecer o papel da orientação religiosa, da espiritualidade, da transcendência e do bem-estar no desenvolvimento da compreensão do sentido da vida entre os moradores do Distrito de Coimbra vivenciando a adultez avançada. Especificamente, procurámos investigar o papel da orientação religiosa no desenvolvimento da compreensão do sentido da vida; analisar as relações existentes entre a qualidade de vida, a satisfação com a vida, o bem-estar (psicológico e espiritual), e algumas variáveis sociodemográficas na compreensão do sentido da vida na idade avançada; e contribuir para a promoção da qualidade de vida, do bem-estar (espiritual, subjetivo e psicológico) e para a melhoria do apoio psicológico prestado às pessoas nesta fase da vida. Para a realização deste estudo foi utilizado um plano não experimental correlacional, sendo os dados recolhidos por meio do autorrelato com recurso aos seguintes instrumentos, em suas versões adaptadas à população portuguesa: WHOQOL-SRPB, SWBQ, MQL, SWLS e SWBS. Nossa amostra foi constituída por 287 indivíduos residentes no Concelho de Coimbra com idade igual ou superior a 70 anos. Os principais resultados são provenientes de análises de Regressão Múltipla e indicaram que: (a) o bem-estar psicológico, não frequentar qualquer instituição, a qualidade de vida; a participação em atividades religiosas; a situação financeira e económica; satisfação com a vida e a idade são preditores da presença de sentido da vida; (b) a orientação religiosa extrínseca social, o bem-estar psicológico, o estado civil, o bem-estar espiritual, as condições de saúde e o estatuto da fé são preditores da procura de sentido da vida; (c) que as variáveis sociodemográficas pouco influenciaram na variação da presença e da procura de sentido da vida, sendo os efeitos de maior magnitude observado entre as variáveis psicológicas. Contrariando o esperado, nem a orientação religiosa e nem o bem-estar espiritual exercem influência na variância da presença de sentido da vida, em se tratando da orientação religiosa, essa influência se faz notar na procura de sentido da vida, na sua verte extrínseca social. As variáveis sociodemográficas pouco influenciaram na variação da presença e da procura de sentido da vida, exercendo de maior impacto nessa variação as variáveis psicológicas, seguidas de perto pela variáveis psicológicas de autoapreciação. Podemos concluir que satisfação com a vida, bem-estar psicológico e qualidade de vida formam uma rede de inter-relações com a presença e a procura de sentido da vida que podem impactar de forma significativa o desenvolvimento na adultez avançada.
The main objective of this study was to study the role of religious orientation, spirituality, transcendence and well-being in the development of an understanding of the meaning of life among Coimbra residents living in advanced adulthood. Specifically, we sought to investigate the role of religious orientation in the development of the understanding of the meaning of life; to analyze the relationships between quality of life, satisfaction with life, well-being (psychological and spiritual), and some sociodemographic variables in understanding the meaning of life in old age; and contribute to the promotion of quality of life, well-being (spiritual, subjective and psychological) and to the improvement of the psychological support provided to people at this stage of life. For this study, a non-experimental correlational plan was used, and the data were collected through self-report using the following instruments, in their versions adapted to the Portuguese population: WHOQOL-SRPB, SWBQ, MQL, SWLS and SWBS. Our sample consisted of 287 individuals living in Coimbra County aged 70 or over. The main results come from Multiple Regression analyzes and indicated that: (a) psychological well-being, not attending any institution, quality of life; participation in religious activities; the financial and economic situation; satisfaction with life and age are predictors of the presence of meaning of life; (b) social extrinsic religious orientation, psychological well-being, marital status, spiritual well-being, health conditions and the status of the faith are predictors of the quest for meaning in life; (c) that the sociodemographic variables had little influence on the variation of the presence and demand of the meaning of life, and the effects of greater magnitude were observed among the psychological variables. Contrary to expectations, neither religious orientation nor spiritual well-being exert an influence on the variance of the presence of meaning of life, when it comes to religious orientation, this influence is noted in the search for meaning in life, in its extrinsic social outlook . The sociodemographic variables had little influence on the variation of the presence and demand of the meaning of life, with the psychological variables having a greater impact in this variation, followed closely by the psychological variables of self-evaluation. We can conclude that satisfaction with life, psychological well-being and quality of life form a network of interrelationships with the presence and the search for meaning of life that can significantly impact development in advanced adulthood.

Full textAbstract:
Despite an increased interest in autism over the last decades, little research exists about life outcomes of autistic adults. The earliest follow-up studies of autistic individuals suggested that self- understanding and conscious efforts to change could be crucial factors in successfully reaching good life outcomes. However, these initial suggestions have not been further investigated. Therefore, this exploratory qualitative study examined the lives of eight highfunctioning autistic adults aged 25 to 63, from their own perspectives, through in-depth, semistructured interviews, to consider the relation of self-understanding and conscious efforts to change—in this study referred to as intentional personal development—to their life outcomes.
All participants demonstrated a level of self-understanding beyond what would be predicted by current theoretical models of autism. Their self-understanding was assessed through participants’ self-definitions, meaning-making of life experiences, and understanding of emotions. In their self-definitions, the participants emphasized their abilities and personality characteristics, rather than their disabilities. For their self-defining memories, as indicators of their meaning making of life experiences, most participants chose positive experiences related to their personal development. Their autobiographical accounts revealed that most participants possess a large iii
repertoire of emotion words, supporting an understanding of emotions. When a good life
outcome is defined traditionally—as being employed, living independently, and having social relationships—this study, contrary to expectations, did not provide overwhelming evidence for the significant role of intentional personal development in achieving this. However, when a good life outcome is defined in terms of achieving personal excellence, then the study did provide confirmation of intentionality as important to attaining good life outcomes. This study therefore suggests that traditional life outcome measures are inadequate for assessing the life outcomes of
autistic individuals because such measures do not take into account the individuals’ own sense of satisfaction with themselves and with their lives.

Full textAbstract:
Islam is what Muslims do. From this premise, the book elaborates a sociology of Islam in three concise chapters. The book shows that Islam has operated typically not in the form of standard dogmas, but usually as a compass for practical orientations (“lifeworlds”). This more pragmatic character of the faith established it as a relevant factor in three arenas in which common social life acquires meaning: participatory ethics, public philosophies, and global networks. The book argues that all three are poorly understood in recent literature, which tends to focus on one specific problem or another, and then in isolation from global and historical contexts. The book argues that the larger preoccupations of ordinary Muslims—how to live in a global society; how to guide life in the manner of a total philosophy; and how to relate to the world of daily struggles—are unique neither to the present period nor to religious life. But the career of a particular religion—Islam in this case—offers a focused empirical lens through which we may learn something more about the nature of global citizenship; the philosophical needs of ordinary people; and the sorts of ethics that facilitate social participation.

Full textAbstract:
In a world that is responding to ever-changing ideas and expressions of gender, this book adds new insights on transgender children and the parents who support them. Drawing on in-depth interview data with more than fifty parents, the book examines parents’ shifting understandings of their children’s gender and how they come to help their children make sense of their identities and their bodies. Throughout these processes, the book shows that parents’ meaning-making and decision-making often challenge LGBT rights discourses, as well as queer political tenets, in unexpected ways. These dynamics surface in three key areas: (1) gender and sexuality, (2) the gender binary, and (3) the body. Throughout parents’ understandings, gender identity and sexual orientation do not always present as radically separate aspects of the self, but are more fluid and open to reconsideration, given new cultural contexts, opportunities, and phases of the life course. And despite increasing cultural visibility around nonbinary identities, “gender-expansive” child-rearing often looks, fundamentally, very binary and gender-stereotypical, per the children’s own assertions and expressions. Lastly, parents often utilize highly medicalized understandings of transgender embodiment, which nevertheless resonate with some children’s sensibilities. Altogether, these families depart from conventional understandings of gender, sexuality, and the binary, but in ways that prioritize child-centered shifts, meanings, and parenting models, not necessarily LGBTQ politics or paradigms. This marks new ground for understanding the mechanisms and parameters of the (trans)gender change afoot.

Full textAbstract:
Practices of assessment in education are byproducts of a bygone era. When testing and grades become the very goals of education, learning suffers, along with the well-being of students and teachers. In this book, the authors propose a radical alternative to the measurement-based assessment tradition, a vision in which schools are no longer structured as factories but as sites of collective meaning-making. As it is within the process of relating that the world comes to be what it is for us, the authors draw from this process their understanding of what knowledge is and what is good and valuable. Equally, learning and well-being are embedded in relational process, which testing and grades undermine. Thus the authors advocate a relational orientation to evaluation in education, emphasizing co-inquiry and value creation. The aim is to stimulate and enhance learning while simultaneously enriching the vitality of the relational process. A wide range of innovations in evaluative practice bring these ideas to life. The authors include detailed illustrations using cases from pioneering schools around the globe, at both primary and secondary levels, demonstrating how evaluation can foster students’ engagement in learning, feed into teachers’ professional development, support whole school improvement, and further nurture learning communities beyond the school’s walls. A relational shift in evaluation also opens a space for the flourishing of interactive and participatory teaching practices and more flexible and co-created curricula. Such a transformation in education speaks to the demands of a rapidly changing and unpredictable world, in which our capacities to listen, dialogue, and collaborate are imperative.

Full textAbstract:
This chapter presents a new framework to integrate two dominant models of the good life: hedonia and eudaimonia. Hedonia emphasizes the primacy of pleasure (e.g., satisfaction and happiness), whereas eudaimonia emphasizes the primacy of meaning (e.g., well-being, meaningfulness, moral virtue, wisdom, growth, and self-actualizing). The two function on different levels of context. Three facets of value facilitate their integration. Value orientation refers to one’s values, motives, and needs. Value fulfillment is the successful enactment of value orientation, typically experienced as hedonic satisfaction or eudaimonic meaningfulness. Value perspectivity (a newly theorized feature of value and a key quality of wisdom) is the degree of complexity and coherence by which value orientations and fulfillments are interpreted. The transformative self emphasizes eudaimonic growth, which emphasizes humane and organismic value orientations. The three facets of value reconfigure into four superordinate categories of goods in life: happiness, love, wisdom, and growth.

This chapter examines the role of Islamic temporal cosmology in villagers’ lives. It focuses on how moments of daily prayer, fasting, and worship are entwined with the materials of temporal textures, in particular in their calendric and time-measuring forms. These entwinements co-constitute villagers’ religious experience, and offer improvised techniques for making meaning and organizing social life. This chapter argues that any study of secular temporal orientations needs to be viewed in parallel with the modes of temporal reasoning and practice that are derived from Islamic temporal conceptions.

Full textAbstract:
My first main theme is consumption, which is the focus of this chapter and the next. However, since consumer culture also has a clear imprint on the other themes covered in this book—education, working life, and organizations— consumption orientations and logics make themselves felt throughout. Consumption development is strongly characterized by zero-sum games and the cultivation of grandiose notions and illusion tricks. And maybe such features are typically most marked in the consumption area (in its more restricted, traditional sense). Consumption is about the satisfaction of needs, desires, and wishes, but of course also about the generation of those orientations. All this involves complicated construction processes. Given the enormous increase in consumption, at least in economically advanced countries, one would expect people to have become more and more satisfied. And perhaps feel saturation. But this is simply not the case. An interesting question is whether economic growth and increased consumption are satisfaction-creating projects? If they are not, and many indicators suggest they are only marginally so, the meaning of increased consumption in the world’s most affluent societies and groups deserves exploration. I start with a discussion of consumer culture, the increasing scope of consumption, and the apparently insatiable demand for additional goods and services, even in the richest countries. Subsequently, I examine some common views about consumption and consumers. The consumer may be regarded as everything from a heroic political figure to an undiscerning fool, from an active creator of meaning to a passive victim of market ideologies, fashion trends, and consumer manipulation. Next, I demonstrate that a massive increase in consumption is paralleled by a continual growth in demand, without any corresponding increase in satisfaction. The question then arises as to whether consumerism can be viewed as a major failure or at least a somewhat unsuccessful political and individual project. This chapter also addresses the significance and effectiveness of efforts to control consumers and consumption. The analysis of consumption continues in Chapter 3, addressing how consumption involves so many aspects and logics other than meeting needs, demands, and wishes, and can only, to a limited degree, be viewed as an ultimately satisfaction-raising enterprise.

Full textAbstract:
This chapter details Alexander Kluge's acceptance speech on the occasion of receiving a prize named for Theodor W. Adorno. Kluge met Adorno when he was twenty-four years old and working as an attorney in Frankfurt. Adorno was a friendly and communicative man of his day. However, when it came to his work, he was a man of extreme incorruptibility and strict earnestness. In order to describe him more accurately, Kluge cites a central point in his thinking. He then mentions Immanuel Kant's Categorical Imperative: every moral individual should plan his actions such that they could provide maxims for a universal system of laws. Friedrich Nietzsche radicalized this principle: one should always act such that one could live with one's behavior knowing that one would have to repeat one's actions for all eternity. Adorno would presumably find Nietzsche's idea more lively and practical than Kant's formulation, but Nietzsche's phrasing would have been too existential for him, meaning irrelevant compared to the practical experiences of the 1940s. Adorno thus presents a more practical and decisive standard. Public expression, learning and education, in fact every expression of life, he says, exists under the postulate that Auschwitz not repeat itself. One sees in this imperative of Adorno's a sentence that repeats itself: There is no praxis without theory.

Full textAbstract:
This introductory chapter discusses the meaning of a good neighbor—people who live nearby and contribute to, or do not derange, the quality of life at home. It explores the phenomenology of everyday encounters: ordinary good turns and ordinary vices, the give and take of greetings, favors, and offenses in this place whose meaning for people is different from any other. Extreme conditions and frightful degradation of everyday life at home are common enough, however, and then neighbors' responses are immensely important, life-altering. Neighbors may hold other people's lives in their hands. A common thread in survivors' accounts of natural disasters is the assistance only neighbors provide. They stimulate awakening and orientation, and then they improvise rescue and aid, resisting the chaos and fury of decivilization.

Full textAbstract:
Nat Turner, as a leader of the 1831 Southampton slave rebellion, described a religious commitment that shaped his worldview and daily practices, and which ultimately manifested in his leading a slave rebellion. The task of interpreting the meaning of Nat Turner and the Southampton slave rebellion—highlighted by William Styron’s 1967 novel, The Confessions of Nat Turner, and the debate that ensued after its publication—discloses the persistence of Sylvia Wynter’s category of “Man” as a descriptive statement of the human within colonial modernity. This chapter opens up the need to re-visit Nat Turner, and to see how his life and worldview reveal possibilities beyond Man. It argues that religious practices and theological epistemologies can present an alternative to Man and that Nat Turner’s life and thought show one way such practices and epistemologies have been actualized beyond the doctrine of Man.

Full textAbstract:
Replacing the assessment orientation requires an alternative to the idea of schools as sites of production. To do so, the authors challenge the conception of schools as composed of individual actors whose performance can be measured independently of their lodgment in the social world. They argue that our understandings of the world, along with our ways of life, come about within a process of relating. It is out of coordination among participants that beliefs, values, and meaningfulness of actions originate. Thus the process of co-creation is essential to knowledge, understanding, and learning. Significant distinctions are drawn among various forms of relational process, with contrasts between conventional conversations (valuable in sustaining tradition) degenerative interchange (leading to the destruction of meaning-making) and generative relating (that inspires innovation and enriches relationship). Measurement-based assessment practices in education foster alienation, suspicion, self-centeredness, and an instrumental orientation to relating. Vitally needed is the development of a relationally enriching orientation to evaluation.

Full textAbstract:
This chapter considers the meaning of life beyond the doctrine of Man in the context of a total rejection of this world within the work of the French philosopher Michel Henry and in recent developments in radical queer theory. This means that the reflection on life starts from a position of negativity and a rejection of the so-called “logic of inclusion” as a response to situations of oppression: one does not find life or liberation through access to or participation in the world of Man. Searching for alternative ways to conceive of a notion of “life,” this chapter connects Michel Henry’s understanding of “flesh” as the incarnation of life beyond the world of representation with radical queer theory’s critique of Western modernity’s orientation toward an ever better future. Authors such as Judith Halberstam, Leo Bersani, and Lee Edelman reveal the creative potential of a queer life in the absence of a future.

Full textAbstract:
This chapter integrates theories of the good life and the life story, showing how the two phenomena scaffold each other into existence—and form a good life story. The chapter first examines concepts of time, narrative, change, development, and growth. Metaphors that suggest growthiness are listed, but growth proper emerges in narrative meaning-making. The chapter provides an overview of how the facets of value are shaped and conveyed via narrative tone, theme, and structure. Tone conveys whether an event turns out well subjectively (i.e., value fulfillment). Theme conveys why an event is subjectively important (i.e., value orientation). Structure conveys the objective degrees of value perspectivity by which events, tones, and themes are interpreted. Like the three facets of value, narrative tone, theme, and structure combine to convey the four superordinate categories of a good life story—happiness, love, wisdom, and growth—toward which a transformative self aims.

Full textAbstract:
"People who consider their work as a calling find it fulfilling, purposeful, and socially useful, thus leading to higher levels of well-being. Since work is a central part of the identity of people with calling orientation and represents one of the most important domains of their lives, we assume that they are more prone to craft their job. They tend to make the physical and cognitive changes in the task or relational boundaries of their work in order to make it more meaningful. Both experiencing work as a calling and job crafting are found to be associated with numerous positive outcomes such as increased job satisfaction, psychological well-being and sense of meaning. This study adds to literature by exploring simultaneously the role of both calling orientation and job crafting in primary teacher’s wellbeing. The aim of the study was to explore the relationship between teachers calling orientation, job crafting, work meaningfulness and well-being. In light of the literature on work meaningfulness and psychological well-being, a serial mediation model was proposed with job crafting and work meaningfulness mediating the relationship between teacher calling orientation and teacher flourishing. The sample consisted of 349 primary school teachers (95% female) from public schools in northern western region of Croatia. They have on average 22 years of teaching experience (ranged from 0-43 years). Self-report measures of calling orientation (Work-Life Questionnaire), job crafting (Job Crafting Scale), work meaning (Work Meaningfulness scale) and flourishing (Flourishing Scale) were used. The findings revealed that the job crafting via increasing structural job resources mediated the relationship between calling orientation and work meaningfulness. Furthermore, the results supported the proposed serial mediation between calling orientation and flourishing via increasing structural job resources and increasing work meaningfulness. Based on these findings, several practical implications can be noted. First, interventions aimed at helping teacher view their job as a calling should be promoted in schools. Second, teachers should be encouraged to cultivate job crafting as it is an important path to meaningfulness in work context and overall psychological wellbeing. This is specially the case for increasing structural job resources, such as autonomy and variety at work."

Merciai, Ilaria, and Ruth Kerr. "MOOCS AS A TOOL FOR VIRTUAL UNIVERSITY ORIENTATION." In International Conference on Education and New Developments. inScience Press, 2021. http://dx.doi.org/10.36315/2021end139.
Full textAbstract:
The Covid-19 era, and its enforced transition of all teaching and learning activity to the online space, is potentially leading to reduced university enrolment rates. International student enrolments are predictably down due to travel restrictions and concerns about student safety, but even at home the same trends are being observed. One of the conversations around this issue is the value-for-money question in relation to a perceived reduction in the quality of the overall student experience when the networking opportunities of on-campus life and study are taken away. A further question is the level of digital readiness of staff and school-leaver students, and whether they are able to deal successfully with preparation for final-year school exams, university choice, and for university entrance tests in remote learning. Federica Web Learning, the University Centre for Research Innovation and Dissemination of multimedia and distance learning, has long been making the case for MOOCs as a valid tool for virtual orientation. In the current climate, MOOCs can provide chunks of ready-made quality learning content for use as the asynchronous component in today’s hybrid online courses, meaning that the time teacher and class spend in plenary, in video-conferencing, can be devoted to discussion and more in-depth analysis of the learning objectives. The MOOCs can be specially chosen from the growing range on offer from university providers around the world: some provide remedial content in problem subjects and topics; some offer specific exam preparation content and others offer university orientation, or study skills.
