Abstract:
Research has suggested that females lack self-confidence in their abilities to perform in certain physical activity situations. This "situational vulnerability," however, is not characteristic of all age levels. The present research was designed to determine if situational vulnerability was characteristic of college-age females and to determine if postperformance feedback would enhance self-confidence. Further, the research was designed to determine if feedback-enhanced self-confidence would generalize to a different task. In Study 1, males and females (N=381) rated the gender appropriateness of several motor tasks and made confidence ratings. In Study 2, high and low confidence college-age women (N=69) were tested to determine if feedback increased confidence on a gender-neutral task.. Subjects were then tested for confidence after performing a different task to determine if feedback-produced confidence differences were enduring. The results indicated that both tasks were rated as gender-neutral, but college-age females lacked confidence when compared to males. Feedback did improve confidence for low confidence females, but this feedback-enhanced self-confidence did not generalize to a different motor task. It is suggested that a fourth factor, namely lack of experience, be added to Lenney's (1977) situational vulnerability hypothesis as a factor likely to affect female self-confidence.

Abstract:
This study examined situational antecedents of multidimensional competitive state anxiety and self-confidence in a sample of 125 elite intercollegiate middle-distance runners. Cognitive anxiety, somatic anxiety, and self-confidence were measured 1 hour prior to performance via the Competitive State Anxiety Inventory–2. Subjects also completed the 19-item Pre-Race Questionnaire (PRQ) which was designed to examine situational antecedents of the competitive state anxiety components. Factor analysis of the PRQ revealed five factors: perceived readiness, attitude toward previous performance, position goal, coach influence, and external environment. Stepwise multiple regression analyses demonstrated that cognitive anxiety was predicted by the first three of these factors. However, none of the factors were found to significantly predict somatic anxiety. Self-confidence was also predicted by two factors, perceived readiness and external environment. These findings suggest that cognitive anxiety and self-confidence share some common antecedents but that there are also factors unique to each.

Abstract:
The purpose of this study was to explore the situational antecedents of multidimensional state anxiety among competitors in the sport of duathlon (run/cycle/run). Subjects ( N = 122; Age: M = 28.3 yr., SD = 7.8 yr.) completed the Competitive Sport Anxiety Inventory-2 1 hr. before competition. In addition, they completed a 21-item Prerace Questionnaire modified for duathlon on which scores were factor analysed. Six factors accounted for 73.5% of the variance, similar to those identified by Jones, et al. in 1990. Step-wise multiple regression indicated that race goals and perceived readiness were significant predictors of cognitive anxiety, somatic anxiety, and self-confidence. Self-confidence was also predicted by attitude toward previous performance. This finding supports the proposal that these anxiety subcomponents share common antecedents but challenges the notion that cognitive and somatic anxiety also have unique antecedents.

Abstract:
Introduction Utilizing simulation in nursing education is increasingly becoming a popular teaching pedagogy. Simulation provides opportunity to the nursing students to practice the clinical skills through various real life like situational experiences. Simulation improves the clinical decision making skills of the nursing students. Objective A descriptive, cross sectional, correlational study was conducted to evaluate the efficacy of simulation using NLN/Jeffries Nursing Education Simulation Framework on satisfaction and self-confidence of Undergraduate nursing students. Methods 370 undergraduate nursing students participated in the study. Educational practices, Simulation design, Student satisfaction and Self-confidence questionnaires were used. Results Majority of the nursing students perceived agreement on various domains of student satisfaction, self-confidence, educational practices and simulation design used in the curriculum. The students were self-confident to care for similar patients in the clinical area and satisfied with this instructional method. Satisfaction and self-confidence were correlated with educational practices and simulation design. Conclusion Developing simulations using NLN/Jeffries Nursing Education Simulation framework will provide meaningful, engaging, and pedagogically sound experiences for the students. Pre-briefing and de-briefing are meaningful strategies to enhance the learning of students.

Abstract:
Online reviews help consumers make informed product choices by serving as a valuable source of information for a buying decision. However, consumer’s situational constraints such as time pressure or purchase uncertainty negatively impact the way in which buyers evaluate and use online reviews, reducing their effectiveness. This study examines the influence of situational constraints, namely perceived time pressure and purchase uncertainty, on consumers’ evaluation and use of online reviews for information search. This empirical study used an online survey to collect data from 560 Amazon Mechanical Turk users. Findings indicate that both perceived time pressure and perceived purchase uncertainty are positively associated with heuristic processing of online reviews but negatively associated with systematic processing of online reviews. Moreover, while both heuristic and systematic information processing increased buyers’ self-confidence in their purchase decisions, systematic processing led to greater buyer self-confidence than did heuristic processing. This study concludes with a discussion of practical and academic implications, as well as future research directions.

Abstract:
Introduction: many studies have concluded that self-efficacy is an essential variable within the area of drug addictions and a key to maintaining abstinence and preventing relapses. The Situational Confidence Questionnaire by Annis et al. (1987), is one of the most used instruments to measure self-efficacy and has had various modifications. The Brief Situational Confidence Questionnaire (CBCS), is the shortest version with only 8 items. Objective: to obtain the factor validity and reliability of the CBCS with a clinical sample in residential modality. Method: the study was carried out with a sample of 41 volunteers patients, adolescents, and adults interned in a residential rehabilitation center. The evaluation met the standards for the development and review of instrumental studies. Results: after carrying out the exploratory factor analysis, the eight original items were left within a single factor which explains 71.39% of the variance, with a factor load between the ranges of .76 and .91, and with an internal consistency of .941. Discussion and conclusions: the Brief Situational Confidence Questionnaire presents an internal consistency with high reliability and acceptable factor loads, such as was found in other studies. Therefore, its use in Mexico is suggested as an evaluation tool in a clinical setting, with patients who are interned in a rehabilitation center. It is recommended to carry out replications with more representative and randomly selected samples. Furthermore, it is suggested to include confirmatory factor analysis to obtain greater certainty in the results.

Abstract:
This study examined temporal changes in sources of sport-confidence during the build up to an important competition. Elite individual athletes (N = 54) completed the Sources of Sport-Confidence Questionnaire (SSCQ) at five precompetition phases (6 weeks, 4 weeks, 3 weeks, 2 weeks and 1 week before competition). A two-factor (gender x time-to-competition) MANOVA revealed no significant interactions, but highlighted both time-to-competition and gender main effects. Time-to-competition main effects indicated the importance placed upon demonstration of ability, physical/mental preparation, physical self-presentation and situational favorableness sources of sport-confidence changed during the precompetition phase. Gender main effects revealed that female athletes demonstrated a significantly greater reliance on sources associated with mastery, physical self-presentation, social support, environmental comfort and coach’s leadership than male athletes. These findings emphasize the benefit of considering sources of sport-confidence as competition approaches; they may have implications for the design and timing of confidence based interventions.

Abstract:
Objective: To compare community pharmacists' self-perceived communication confidence in prescription drug abuse and addiction (PDAA)-related scenarios to their self-confidence in other scenarios. Methods: An 18-item survey instrument adapted from the Self-Perceived Communication Competence instrument was administered to 2000 licensed Tennessee community pharmacists. Items elicited communication confidence across common community pharmacy scenarios. Analysis of communication self-confidence scores across context, receiver, audience, and demographic variables was conducted. Results: Mean self-confidence ratings ranged from 54.2 to 92.6 (0-100 scale). Self-perceived communication confidence varied across context, receiver, audience, personal and practice setting characteristics. Scenarios that involved PDAA communication with patients were scored significantly lower than non-PDAA patient scenarios (mean = 84.2 vs. 90.4, p Conclusion: Community pharmacists are less confident in their ability to communicate with patients about PDAA as compared to non-PDAA scenarios. Practice Implications: Engaging patients and prescribers in PDAA conversations is a critical component of preventing and treating PDAA. Research is warranted to further explore measures of situational communication self-confidence and interventions to optimize self-confidence beliefs across PDAA scenarios.

Abstract:
The thesis aims to address a perceived gap in the training and development of music performers, namely the lack of a practical strategies framework for developing performance confidence, especially self-efficacy (situational selfconfidence) in music performance. To this end, a Training Program with Training Manual was designed to assist musicians in the management of practice and performance, using a framework of six integrative mental and physical strategies taken from Sport Performance and applied to Music Performance. Five musicians trialed the Training Program for five weeks. Five individual case studies were constructed to explore and interpret the musicians' practice and performance experiences before and after using the Training Program / Manual. Analyses of in-depth interviews and a follow-up questionnaire revealed that the Training Program had produced positive changes in mental and physical behaviour, along with increased concentration ability and coping skills in stressful situations, resulting in a sense of control in performance. A cross-case analysis revealed that the shared issues of significance for the musicians were Concentration, Stress and Lifestyle Practices, and Sense of Control in practice and performance. This qualitative study demonstrates that a training program addressing the lifestyle context of music performance is beneficial for practice and the lead-up to performance. Confidence in playing ability develops, when practice and performance are perceived to be effectively self-managed and practice becomes a positive experience. The findings of this study suggest the need for a holistic approach to music performance, based on awareness of the mind-body connections involved in performance.

Abstract:
Personality, motives, and self-efficacy have all been recognized as factors contributing to relapse, and the interaction among these factors has been outlined in Witkiewitz and Marlatt’s contemporary relapse model. However, there is limited empirical research examining the mechanisms involved in this theory. This study aimed to better understand the relationship between personality risk, drinking motives, and confidence to resist drinking during high-risk situations among adults who have changed their drinking. Results indicate that prior to participants’ change in drinking, introversion/hopelessness was associated with coping motives and confidence in situations involving unpleasant emotions, anxiety sensitivity was associated with coping motives, and impulsivity was associated with conformity motives. Following participants’ change, two specific motives (i.e., coping and conformity) were found to moderate the association between two of the personality profiles (i.e., introversion/hopelessness and anxiety sensitivity) and confidence to resist drinking during specific high-risk situations (i.e., negative emotional and social pressure to use).

Abstract:
Mathematics anxiety is a personal characteristic which is widespread and continuing. It has a debilitating effect on mathematics performance and contributes to perceptions and attitudes that perpetuate a dislike for mathematics and a lack of confidence when dealing with mathematical problems. An investigation of relevant literature on mathematics anxiety identifies sources and symptoms and emphasises a need for a comprehensive approach to remediation. The historical development of an appropriate measuring instrument is documented and statistical evidence is used to create a mathematics anxiety rating scale suitable for measuring anxiety levels of secondary school pupils and student teachers. The extensive literature interest, research publications and remedial programmes emphasise the problem of mathematics anxiety and thus the need for a comprehensive approach to remediation. Mathematics teaching and curriculum design is expounded to provide the necessary direction to the alleviation of mathematics anxiety. General perspectives on curriculum design are discussed and a cyclical systems approach is recommended. Elements of this approach are detailed and are linked to important personal characteristics to add a humanistic and socio-cultural view of curriculum design in mathematics. The didactic viability of constructivism as an approach to mathematics curriculum design is investigated. Constructivism embodies a philosophy and a methodology which addresses the critical aspects influencing mathematics anxiety. Classroom topics and activities are reviewed in terms of a constructivist approach and the sources of mathematics anxiety are discussed from a constructivist perspective. A longitudinal case study of pupils during their five years at secondary school as well as a study involving student teachers was undertaken. Mathematics performance, perceptions, attitudes and levels of anxiety were investigated by means of tests, questionnaires, and mathematics anxiety rating scales. The statistical results of this research provide evidence to support a comprehensive approach to the remediation of mathematics anxiety. Constructivism is seen as the synthesis of critical aspects of teaching and curriculum development which will stem the perpetuation of mathematics anxiety. Constructivism provides the didactic approach to develop each individual's intellectual autonomy and mathematics power, by instilling a problem solving attitude and a self-confidence when doing mathematics.

Abstract:
AbstractSentenza 238/2014 once more highlights the important role domestic courts play in international law. More than prior examples, it illustrates the ever more autonomous and self-confident stance of domestic courts on the international plane. But the ruling of the Italian Constitutional Court (ItCC) also shows that more engagement with international law does not necessarily mean that domestic courts enhance the effectiveness of international law and become ‘compliance partners’ of international courts. Sentenza 238/2014 suggests that domestic courts, in times of global governance and increased activity of international courts, see the role they play at the intersection of legal orders also as ‘gate-keepers’, ready to cushion the domestic impact of international law if deemed necessary. The judgment of the ItCC thus offers a new opportunity to examine the multifaceted and complex role of these important actors that apply and shape international law, while always remaining bound by domestic (constitutional) law. This chapter does so by exploring how domestic courts deal with rulings of the World Court. It shows that despite the fact that in numerous situations domestic courts could act as compliance partners of the International Court of Justice, in reality, more often than not, they have refused to do so, arguing that its judgments are not self-executing and thus deferring the implementation to the political branches. Assessing this practice, the chapter argues that domestic courts should take a more active stance and overcome the purely interstate view that seems at odds with present-day international law. While it seems too far-reaching to expect domestic courts to follow international courts unconditionally, the chapter cautions that there is a considerable risk of setting dangerous precedents by openly defying international judgments. Domestic courts should carefully balance the different interests at stake, namely an effective system of international adjudication on the one hand and the protection of fundamental domestic principles on the other hand. The chapter finds that the ItCC’s attempt to reintroduce clear boundaries between legal orders lacks the openness and flexibility needed to effectively cope with today’s complex and plural legal reality.

Abstract:
Helping clients to become aware of and challenge thoughts of using substances reduces the risk of relapse and raises the client’s level of self-confidence. Clients who experience a high-risk relapse situation and have positive thoughts of using are more vulnerable to taking a drink, smoking, or using other drugs. This is especially true if the client has little confidence in his or her ability to manage thoughts of using. The objectives of this chapter are to help the client become aware of how thoughts of using substances can contribute to relapse, to help the client identify common thoughts and apparently irrelevant decisions that precede substance use, and to help the client learn strategies to manage and challenge thoughts of using alcohol, tobacco, or other drugs.

Abstract:
Adjusting and adapting to a chronic health condition is a long process that involves adopting a new lifestyle. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) has had great success in promoting this process and enhancing self-management skills among people with chronic conditions. The main goal of CBT is to encourage people to become their own therapist and to feel confident in managing their chronic situation. This chapter describes the main CBT ideas on how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact with one another and which concepts and techniques can help people break the vicious cycle of negative thoughts, difficult emotions, and nonadaptive behaviors. Following that, the chapter explains how to implement those skills and techniques specifically among people with chronic health conditions in order to increase their quality of life.

Abstract:
This chapter describes and evaluates the model of medical simulation as a learning strategy to handle complex, value-laden situations and decisions in child protection. Participants were bachelor students in social work and practitioners from different health and social services. The topic of scenario training was multidisciplinary teamwork in separating newborns and parents at the maternity ward with aims to: 1) stimulate ethical and professional reflexion and improve skills in interdisciplinary teamwork, and 2) combine education and practice to improve both. The theoretical framework is inspired by Lave’s theory of situated learning and Jeffries’ simulation theory. A qualitative, action-oriented research strategy was used. The simulation served simultaneously as education, as-if real practice, and research. Reflection notes, participant observations, debriefing discussions between the participants, and an electronic feedback questionnaire provided the data. 174 students and 110 professionals participated in a total of 30 small group simulations. Feedback showed that participants believed that simulation would enhance their self-confidence and competence in real-life situations. Students experienced the scenario training as making practical sense of theory and teaching. Many saw this as a preparation step to their future profession. Results indicate that scenario training strengthened mutual respect and the ability to consider multiple perspectives. It provided a safe, structured, collaborative situation with potential to lower tensions and value conflicts between professions.

Behavioral finance tries to combine behavioral and cognitive psychological theory with conventional economics and finance to provide justifications for why people make irrational financial decisions. The aim of this chapter is to understand whether emotional phases affect investors' decisions in different investment situations basing on levels of uncertainty. Positive emotions like self-confidence, challenge, and hope increase the decision-makers tendency to exaggerate the commitment, and negative emotions, namely embarrassment and strain, do not.

The unexpected COVID-19 pandemic situation has adversely affected the Indian economy. Barely any sectors could escape the catastrophic effect of this pandemic. The migrant community was also affected by this crisis. The purpose of the study is to explore the impact of COVID-19 on key industries such as automotive, health, education, tourism, and many others, and also the condition of migrant workers is taken into account. In this analysis, secondary data were gathered. The study contains secondary information from blogs, journals, reporting from international agencies, research papers, government documents, and websites. Government support is important to save lives for the most in need (primarily unorganized market, refugees, and marginalized groups). Indian economics must adopt sustainable development models that focus on self-confidence, inclusive structures, and environmental policies. This study can be beneficial to education institutions, stakeholders, policymakers, governments, and society.

Patient-centered empowerment is enhanced through evidence-based engagement in stressful medical situations. The current study provided expert-vetted educational materials in dynamic text and video formats using the 5S approach. The materials are relevant, reliable, and readable for patients with abnormal Pap test results. Findings indicated patients that understood the information better were more engaged. Engagement was measured using a coding system that kept track of explicitly shared information, requested recommendations, and tacit knowledge during patient-physician interaction. Other outcomes were that dynamic text had a greater impact on engagement in both initial and follow-up meetings. Important findings included that those who found the dynamic text relevant had their social well-being, self-esteem, optimism, and acceptance improved in initial meetings. Those who found the dynamic text reliable were more confident in the relationship with their physician in follow-up meetings and felt their social well-being was improved in both initial and follow-up meetings.

Abstract:
The final chapter looks at two moments in the early seventeenth century: Michael Drayton’s response to the change of monarchs in two poems, To the Maiestie of King James from 1603 and The Owle from 1604, and George Wither’s self-fashioning as a Spenserian satirist in a series of four texts a decade later, from Abuses, Stript and Whipt (1613) to The Shepheards Hunting (1615). In both cases, the authors signal their allegiances to Spenser indirectly, with Drayton creating in The Owle an animal satire that references Spenser by alluding to his poetic forebears and Wither including pervasive animal and beast fable imagery in his formal verse satires in Abuses, Stript and Whipt. Significantly, though, the imprisonment that Wither endured as punishment for publishing Abuses, Stript and Whipt led to such an increase in his reputation as a courageous poet that he felt confident enough, in The Shepheards Hunting, to allegorize his own life and situation in ways that depict him as the new Spenserian satirist.

Abstract:
In the level 2 state of assertiveness, we are tranquil, assertive, and powerful. Our voice is calm. Our face is neutral to soft. We are fair- minded and strong. Conflict is easily and efficiently resolved. Neither apologetic nor needlessly assertive, our frame of mind in this stage is to take care of the problem quickly and efficiently, so that there is no longer a problem. We neither shrink from nor plow our way through the situation. In level 2, we become adept at stating and displaying an ade­quate degree of assertiveness. Our actions in this level can be so adept that we hardly know there could have been a problem. The confidence that builds in level 2 becomes our norm, and potential conflicts dissolve with balanced and confident respon­siveness. Harsh retorts and meek acquiescence are mostly things of the past as we hone our internal and external responses to potential conflict. In the balanced state of level 2, our voice is matter- of- fact, moderate volume, non- threatening, and non- threatened. After much practice, this level becomes more of an automatic refram­ing and re- visioning of what is happening and what to do about it. Decisions that undergird responses in level 2 may be totally internal, when there is no need for a verbal or external response. Inwardly and outwardly, we feel in near perfect balance. The other’s behavior did not pull us out of our best self. It did not lure us into making a response that was unnecessary. • In response to a waiter bringing the wrong order: “You may have thought I said pasta, but I ordered salmon. What is the possibility that you could bring the salmon in the next ten minutes?” • In response to a noisy student interrupting another: “Allison, it is not your turn. Watch and listen to Meghan.” • In response to a very angry colleague, you choose not to get involved, and you watch the venting with detached observa­tion. Or you calmly leave the scene. Notice that responses in level 2 can carry with them a recommen­dation or suggestion for what to do next. These exchanges are handled with neutral, soft eyes.

Abstract:
Traditionally, Spanish schools of civil engineering provide their students a class on “Technical English” in order to develop their language skills. However, this class does not cover all the skills that the student would need in the labor market and mainly focuses in the reading and writing skills, and in a lower degree in the speaking and listening ones. This paper proposes a series of innovative and informal training activities (cine-forum on technical civil engineering topics and role playing on real professional situations) that allow Spanish civil engineering students to develop English skills that can rarely be worked in the classroom (i.e. speaking, negotiating and conversing), encouraging debate, participation, and fostering their self-confidence to speak about technical-English topics in public. Although the students’ level of English is much lower than expected, they all agree on the importance of technical English for their future career. The results also show the students’ lack in skills that are difficult to train in regular classes (speaking and talking). Consequently, this situation would require to provide complementary activities like the ones suggested in this project in order to develop these skills and increase the students’ demand for engineering classes taught in English.

Abstract:
Abstract This paper describes the development of a data base and associated interpolation tool used to perform the validation of FEA thermo-mechanical models designed to verify the structural integrity of a self-pressurized modular Reactor Pressure Vessel (RPV) and its nozzles under service transient thermal loads. The main goal is to assess the element’s size and time steps that provide a confidence level on the obtained solutions. The validation process implies the definition of the geometry under study, its material’s properties, thermal load conditions and type of mesh element. With all this information, the program gives the user a set of curves for maximum time steps vs. temperature change rates for each typical thickness section in the modeled geometry for a chosen element size. Any point located below those curves assures a solution underneath a user specified allowable error (e.g.: 5%). All calculations are processed using dimensionless variables in order to create a universal data base enabling the analysis of many different situations of geometries, materials and loads. To improve performance, an Artificial Neural Network algorithm was developed. The resulting application significantly reduces the convergence study time and efforts.

Abstract:
Free floating objects, such as a self reacting wave energy converter (WEC), may experience a condition known as parametric resonance. In this situation, at least two degrees of freedom become coupled when the incident wave train has a frequency approximately twice the pitch or roll natural frequency. This can result in very large amplitude motion in pitch and/or roll. While classic linear theory has proven sufficient for describing small motions due to small amplitude waves, a point absorber WEC is often designed to operate in resonant conditions, and so exhibits significant non-linear responses. In this paper, a time-domain non-linear numerical model is presented for describing the dynamic stability of point absorbers. The pressure of the incident wave train is integrated over the instantaneous wetted surface to obtain the non-linear Froude-Krylov excitation force and the non-linear hydrostatic restoring forces, while first order diffraction-radiation forces are computed by a linear potential flow formulation. The model was applied to a scale model of a specific WEC design, the Wavebob. Comparison with limited data from scale model wave tank tests provided further confidence in the model.

In INTERNATIONAL SCIENTIFIC AND PRACTICAL ONLINE CONFERENCE. Знание-М, 2020. http://dx.doi.org/10.38006/907345-50-8.2020.790.804.

Abstract:
The article presents the results of analyzing the association between the components of psychological safety and the characteristics of the educational environment, including the personal involvement of students in the life of the University and the features of self-regulation. These results are identified using methods of descriptive statistics, correlation and comparative analysis. Generally involved students are convinced that immediate participation in the events taking place at the University gives a chance to find something worthwhile, enjoy their activities. They are confident in themselves, and are not afraid of new things. On the contrary, with a low level of engagement, students feel rejected, and this feeling affects their sense of safety. Components of psychological safety correlate with individual development and adequacy of self-assessment and results of their activities and behavior, with the ability to notice changes in the situation, with the adequacy of representations of significant conditions for achieving goals, with the formation of conscious planning of activities and programming of their actions. A special role is played by flexibility and modeling. Emerging regulatory failures reduce the sense of safety, comfort and satisfaction with the educational environment. The research does not focus on external protection from risks, which are a permanent and unavoidable condition of human existence, but on the search for personal resources, the activation of which contributes to psychological security. The more harmonious the system of self-regulation a person is characterized by, the more likely the person is to perceive the environment as safe and conducive to development.

Abstract:
This study is a reflection on educational reality based on certainty and uncertainty coordinates. Exploring the significance of the binomial reality, generated by the different degrees of certainty, perceived by the actors involved in teaching, the article proposes a few acting options, in order to develop an appropriate orientation of the teacher training process, in a contemporary society marked by the “certainty of uncertainty”. Embracing the unknown, coping with unfamiliar situations, reflecting constructively on one’s own mistakes, as part of a teacher daily activity, are generated by a genuine positioning towards uncertainty in education, raising it from the status of a problem to the hypostasis of an opportunity. Mapping uncertainty through resilience, building confidence in experiencing doubt, reshaping learning by daring to approach dilemmas and stepping out of inaction can be viewed as valid alternatives in developing a professional self in a changing environment. That claims a rethinking of teacher training in terms of developing abilities for sustaining appropriate responses and a proper understanding of the relationship between certainty and uncertainty in education, having the intention of building quality learning experiences. The concepts of choice and change are about to conquer the ideas of standards and stability in educational context as proofs of a renewed approach in order to delineate core drivers of human development in contemporaneity. That is why rethinking teacher training needs to focus on articulating the reflective practicing with experiencing a constant change, integrating the multiplicity of opportunities in a supportive learning environment for developing a global competence, in order to respond effectively to the contemporary challenges.

Full text
Abstract:
In a rapidly changing global environment young people find it more difficult to understand and take a position in life. Therefore, the insights into the meaning of life as well as youth values, which need to be updated at times, presuppose a scientific problem of this work. The article aims to elaborate the differences between the rural and urban youth concerning their perception of the meaningful life and their values. Three hundred and seventy undergraduate students in the study programmes of agriculture, technology and social science at Aleksandras Stulginskis University were surveyed. The results of the survey revealed the prevailing individualistic values of the youth. Although the statistical differences in the socio-economic variables were not found, some trends in the context of gender and place of origin were observed. Students associate the meaning of life with diligence and honest work, self-confidence and goal-seeking. The essential differences in basic life principles manifested themselves within the perception of the meaningful life between the urban and rural youth. Although young people from rural areas perceive life as tedious, they tend to live longer, abandoning everything that is unhealthy, and do not think that a suicide could be a way out of a difficult position. Whereas, the youngsters from big cities, evaluating their life in a fairly optimistic way, would rather live shorter life, than give up the pleasures of life; they are also more likely to think that a suicide could be a way out of a difficult situation.

Abstract:
"The problem of the psychological impact of a pandemic, quarantine and self-isolation on the state of society attracts increased attention of specialists (Hua J., Shaw R., 2020; Li S., Wang Y. et all, 2020, Enikolopov S. et all, 2020; Fedosenko E., 2020). The objective of our work was to find the most common attitudes and types of responses of Russians to the epidemic COVID-19 taking into account their involvement in social networks, critical thinking and severity of psychopathological symptoms. The study was carried out during the recession of the first wave of the pandemic in early June 2020. The main tool was the questionnaire of T. Nestik in an abridged version. Additionally, a questionnaire of critical thinking was used (CTI, Epstein, adapted by S. Enikolopov and S. Lebedev, 2004); test of psychopathological symptoms SCL-90-R; social media engagement questionnaire (Karadag, 2015) was used. The study involved 986 people (56.9% male, 43.1% female) aged 18 to 76 years. Using exploratory factor analysis, 6 types of responses to the epidemic situation caused by COVID-19 were identified (fans / opponents of the ""conspiracy theory""; responsible / irresponsible, covid-dissidents, covid-optimists, misophobes, anti-vaccinators). The dominant belief among the respondents is that the emergence of new infectious diseases is a natural process of mutation that occurs in nature without the participation of people, or the result of someone's mistake. Conspiracy theories were significantly more common among elderly people and women. Citizens see salvation from the epidemic in the moral conscience and responsibility of everyone. At the same time, they do not trust both official information and information from fellow citizens. Representatives of the older generation have higher confidence in the country's leadership, in the possibilities of medicine and science, and in fellow citizens. Correlations of non-critical thinking with manifestations of misophobia and fear of new epidemics were revealed. Depressive subjects were more concerned about the illegal behavior of fellow citizens and misophobia. Long-term fear of epidemics has been correlated with anxiety. Among those who prefer social networks to official information (television, radio, print), statistically significantly more are those who not only do not trust official information about the epidemic situation, but also do not trust their fellow citizens, attributing to them possible facts of concealing information about the disease because of the fear of being quarantined. Thus, the COVID-consciousness of Russians demonstrated a combination of rather contradictory attitudes."

Abstract:
The article contains theoretical and empirical data on the study of metaresource opportunities of the mechanisms of a person’s life successfulness and their relationship with positive attitudes towards life and the achievement of life goals. The relevance of the scientific problem is to find new approaches to the understanding and study of the success of the individual in the modern world. The novelty of the study in testing the concept of life successfulness of a person as a meta-resource in a selfregulation system that performs the function of a reflective comparison of social and individual value bases in order to build its own concept of a successful life and acts as a system of interconnected mechanisms, personality traits and conditions. The methodological foundations in understanding life successfulness are the principles of regulatory, subjective and resource approaches. The purpose of the study: to study the degree of formation of mechanisms of life successfulness, as well as to identify their relationship with a positive motivational attitude and disposition of personality hardiness in a sample of respondents at the beginning of the professionalization process. The correlation analysis allowed to judge whether the relationship mechanisms life successfulness existence of interconnections of positive motivational attitude and personality hardiness. This suggests that respondents with more pronounced reflective mechanisms of life successfulness have a positive motivational attitude towards life, are involved in the situation and are able to manage it, open to receiving life experience, and self-confident. The revealed relationship between the variables indicates the presence of a complex regulatory mechanism of the personality, which allows developing and realizing the meta-resource opportunities of the mechanisms of life successfulness.
