Abstract

Introduction. The problem of meaning aspects in first-year students' adaptation to the university still relevant, because it is not well studied. The aim of the research is to study the peculiarities of first-year students' adaptability in connection with the personality life position, ontological security and meaning of life orientations. Novelty of the research lies in exploring the connection between ontological security, personality life position and adaptability.

Methods. 109 first-year students participated in the research. We used «Method of Research of Students Adaptability in the Higher Educational Establishment» (T. D. Dubovitskaya, A. V. Krylova), "Test of meaning-life orientations" (MLO) (D. A. Leontiev), "Personality life position" (PLP) (D. A. Leontiev), psychometric method "Ontological security" (OS(PM)) (N. V. Kopteva).

Results. Significant positive correlations were found between general meaningfulness of life, general ontological security and level of adaptability. The most significant medium strength correlations with the scale «Adaptation to the study group» were obtained with the following scales: "Process of life" of the MLO, "Harmony with Life" of the PLP methodology, "Vital contacts with the world" of the OS(PM). For the scale «Adaptation to the educational activity» medium strength significant correlations were obtained with the "Purpose in life" and "Locus of control – Self" scales.

Abstract

This article is devoted to the problem of studying the features of achievement motivation among students with different activities in using computer games.

The Introduction substantiates the relevance of the study of the relationship between the various degrees of students’ play activity and the peculiarities of the development of achievement motivation and gives a theoretical overview of foreign and Russian approaches to the study of achievement motivation. The study is novel in obtaining information about the relationship between achievement motivation and nonprofessional and professional gaming activity.

The Methods section describes methods for investigating the relationship between achievement motivation and gaming activity.

The Results section presents the data obtained during the empirical study. The predominance of online games in the gaming activities of the group of ‘cybersportsmen’ and the predominance of single-player games in the group of ‘nonprofessionals’ was revealed. Statistical data processing made it possible to prove the relationship between these parameters and to give a qualitative analysis of the phenomena studied. It is determined that esports players significantly more often prefer online games and nonprofessionals, respectively, single-player. There were no significant differences between the compared groups (esports players and nonprofessionals) in the frequency of activity in computer games, preferences for playing alone or in a team, Internet-dependent behavior, motivation to achieve success and motivation to avoid failures. At the same time, some indicators were very close to significant values. It is an indicator of motivation to avoid failures and an indicator of preference for playing alone or in a team. It can be assumed that these results were probably caused by a relatively small sample, and with the expansion of the study, these indicators would have reached a significant value.

The Discussion section provides an interpretation of the results obtained on the relationship between the characteristics of achievement motivation in students with different activities using computer games.

Abstract

The article is devoted to the influence of the ideas of representatives of the Russian abroad of the beginning and middle of the twentieth century on the formation and development of pedagogical thought and the theory of pedagogy. The concept of comparative pedagogy proposed by N. A. Hans was considered.

In the Introduction, on the example of the analysis of the concept of comparative pedagogy proposed by N. A. Hans it is shown that the range of approaches to the consideration of traditional comparative issues can be expanded due to its analysis through the prism of teachers belonging to certain, including secret, social associations. The novelty lies in the consideration of the problem of pedagogical comparative studies in assessing the belonging of teachers to Freemasonry, in the logic of the N. A. Hans approach.

Methods include selection as an empirical source of N.A. Hans's programmatic work on comparative pedagogy. Research methods include content analysis, comparative analysis, cluster analysis, interpretation, and generalization.

The "Results" section presents data from content-analytical studies, reflecting the frequency of N. A. Hans to the theoretical heritage of the persons he ranks among the authors devoted to Freemasonry.

In the "Discussion" section, an analysis is given of the contribution of persons whose pedagogical activity is connected with the ideas of fraternal associations, the ideology of cosmopolitanism, and global citizenship. One of the clusters uniting teachers of various typological groups is analyzed in detail, which includes Comenius and Fichte. The arguments and position of N. A. Hans regarding the influence of their pedagogical concepts on the theory and practice of education and upbringing are presented and evaluated. The analysis of the pedagogical heritage of Comenius and Fichte showed that there are two ways of influencing Masonic ideas on their adherents. The first way makes it possible to transform the system of pedagogical views from the idea of ​raising national identity to the ideas of its loss and popularization of the ideal of a citizen of the world (Comenius). The second option shows the way from the ideas of cosmopolitanism to the idea of national superiority (Fichte).

The "Conclusion" section reflects the most important results of the study.

The features of subjective perceptions, self-esteem and self-attitude as determinants of adaptation are described. The characteristic of barriers to the adaptation of the individual arising in new conditions is described.

In most cases, students with successful adaptation are characterized by a high level of self–esteem (51.3%), a less pronounced average level (37.4%), and even less - lowered (11.3%). The criteria of successful adaptation indicated by the respondents are more based on the social recognition and productivity categories, and lesser on the content of internal experiences.
