Abstract

Introduction. In modern conditions of political and economic-social imbalance the problem of increasing the level of professionalism of personnel of internal affairs bodies is becoming more and more acute. Formation of an employee's personality as a professional is carried out in the process of his adaptation in the framework of operational-service activity. Difficulties in professional adaptation are primarily characteristic of cadets and graduates of higher education institutions of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Adaptation of cadets to the conditions of work and service in the Ministry of Internal Affairs is a dynamically complex and multidimensional process, including adaptation both to new forms of training and in a new social environment - professional group. Therefore, cadets, as no one else, need the correct organization of the process of their adaptation to their professional activity. The novelty of the study lies in the development and approbation of a training program aimed at optimizing the socio-psychological adaptation to training and service activities, as a result of which the cadet begins to independently build a perspective of his future, formulate personal and professional plans.
Objective. To study the influence of the developed training program on cadets' adaptation to the conditions of training and service activity.
Materials and methods. The study involved 30 freshmen cadets of Donetsk city, distributed in the experimental and control groups. The following methods were used for diagnostics of cadets: "Multilevel personal questionnaire Adaptability" by A. G. Maklakov and S. V. Chermyanin; "SUN" technique by V. A. Doskin, N. A. Lavrentieva, V. B. Sharay, M. P. Miroshnikov; T. Leary interpersonal relations diagnostic technique.
Results. It is established that after the training program "I am a cadet", cadets show better adaptability in comparison with the cadets with whom the program was not conducted, which indicates that for the latter the period of training and service is quite difficult. The description of the training program and the analysis of the results of its influence on the level of adaptation of cadets are given.
Discussion. Comparative analysis of the control and experimental groups showed that the training program "I am a cadet" helps to improve the level of cadets' adaptation to the conditions of service activity and training. They began to demonstrate better knowledge of themselves and others, their well-being, activity and mood improved. Also after application of special exercises the level of aggression and hostility decreased. The obtained data can be used by psychologists of service activity in counseling and correctional work with personnel.

Abstract

Introduction. Co-dependence in the article is considered as a family problem, where a person, being close to the addict for a long time, learns to suppress his feelings, thoughts and needs. As a consequence, he/she shows low self-esteem, high level of anxiety, aggressiveness, distrust to people and the world. The connection between co-dependence and addiction is considered on the example of the phenomenon of increasing co-dependent care during the increase in the manifestations of dependence of a close relative. The "12 Steps" program as a condition for long-term remission in an addicted person, in our opinion, is an important criterion for reducing the level of co-dependent behavior in his or her close relatives.
Objective. To investigate the influence of the duration of remission of an addicted relative on the level of co-dependence manifestation in the family.
Materials and methods. The methodological tools of the study included the author's questionnaire, the Kuhn-McPartland test "Who am I?" (Modification by T. V. Rumyantseva), the interpersonal dependence test by R. Hirschfield (adaptation by O. P. Makushina) and the test "Diagnosis of the type of communicative attitude" by V. V. Boyko. Data processing was carried out by comparing mean values and one-sample t-criterion.
Results. The empirical object of the study is people exposed to the problem of co-dependent behavior (n=147) and students of the Faculty of Psychology as a control group (n=76).
 In the course of the study, the data on the state of actualized co-dependence in the study group with a pronounced negative attitude and high level of insecurity were obtained. Along with this, the assumption about the positive influence of long-term remission of a dependent relative on the level of co-dependence manifestation in the family was confirmed.
Discussion. It has been empirically proved that respondents subjected to the problem of co-dependence are characterized by an acute need for emotional closeness with another and acceptance from others. This can be traced in the emotional discomfort that co-dependents experience due to perceived rejection. Also, the obtained results indicate a decrease in the level of interpersonal dependence and an increase in personality reflection in respondents who have a co-dependent relative in remission for more than 10 years. In addition, the relatives of persons in remission for a longer period of time are characterized by a decrease in negative communicative attitudes, which favorably affects the process of communication, positive attitude towards the interlocutor, and a decrease in control in communication.

SOCIAL PSYCHOLOGY, POLITICAL AND ECONOMIC PSYCHOLOGY

Abstract

Introduction. Mutual intimacy among the citizens of the three countries – South Korea, Japan, and China – continues to be low. To facilitate trilateral cooperation, it is important to understand public perception towards cooperation. 
Purpose. examines how psychological factors of national identification and collective victimhood affect Koreans’ perception and attitudes toward China and Japan. 
Materials and methods. A survey on 320 participants of Korean nationality was conducted using an online questionnaire to measure national identification, collective victimhood, perceived social norms, and preferences for international policies. 
Results. Descriptive statistics show that while most Koreans perceived anti-Chinese and anti-Japanese sentiments as a social norm, participants held more positive attitudes towards them on a personal level. In addition, participants with lower degrees of national identification and collective victimhood, showed more positive attitudes towards Chinese and Japanese and higher preference for diplomatic policies over military policies. 
Discussion. The findings underscore the complexity of intergroup relations in the trilateral context. Despite widespread perceptions of hostility towards Chinese and Japanese, individual attitudes show that many Koreans are open to forming friendships across these national boundaries. This discrepancy suggests a disconnection between perceived social norms and personal beliefs, highlighting the potential for improved interpersonal relations through targeted initiatives. Promoting positive individual interactions may encourage broader acceptance and diminish the emotional appeals of nationalism that lead to parochial attitudes and conformity to social norms that support hostility. As evidenced by Germany's post-conflict reconciliation, structured social and cultural exchanges, supported by legal frameworks, can create a conducive environment for peace and collaboration. While the Trilateral Cooperation Secretariat has made strides in improving diplomatic relations, sustained efforts at both individual and societal levels are essential. Increased interaction and exchanges among the citizens of South Korea, Japan, and China can reduce prejudice and promote cooperation, ultimately fostering a more harmonious trilateral relationship

AGE PSYCHOLOGY

Abstract

Introduction. The main factors influencing the realization of victim behavior include violations of emotional interaction between parents and children, as well as the lack of a certain educational strategy. It is revealed that social intelligence significantly reduces the risk of victimization behavior due to expressed empathy.
Objective. To study the peculiarities of social intelligence of adolescents with a pronounced propensity to victimizing behavior.
Materials and methods. The study used diagnostic techniques, including observation, conversation, the use of standardized methods (O. O. Andronnikova's method of diagnosing victimization behavior, J. Guilford's method of diagnosing social intelligence and M. A. Odintsova's questionnaire "Type of role victimization"). Statistical processing methods such as Spearman's rank correlation criterion and Mann-Whitney U-criterion were used to analyze the data.
Results. For adolescents with high victimhood as a characterological trait is characterized by the blurring of moral and moral guidelines, the prevalence of non-constructive styles of behavior, expressed fickleness in mood, vulnerability. Adolescents with a low level of victimhood are characterized by a positive emotional background, more pronounced satisfaction with daily activities and more pronounced emotional control. The correlation between the features of social intelligence, the level of social intelligence development and manifestations of victimization behavior has been found. The main components of social intelligence, which play a key role in the formation of confident behavior as opposed to victim behavior, are outlined.
Discussion. The growing level of uncertainty in modern society causes the general victimization of the population, where adolescents are the most vulnerable social category. Vulnerability in this age period is manifested in categorical thinking, increased sensitivity to stressors and perception of problems and difficulties as insoluble. As the adolescent develops unfavorable social conditions, these traits act as risk factors, and the sense of victimhood is formed as one of the features of the personality character. A sufficient level of social intelligence, which consists in the ability to predict the behavior of another person, taking into account the logic of the situation, as well as in the identification of common essential features in the non-verbal behavior of a person, allows the formation of confident behavior as the opposite of victimhood.

CORRECTIONAL PSYCHOLOGY AND DEFECTOLOGY

Abstract

Introduction. This article is devoted to the analysis of works studying the peculiarities of development and correctional work with children with speech perception disorders: deaf children who have undergone cochlear implantation and children with sensory alalia. The relevance of this study is caused by the demands of practice. Every year in Russia and abroad the number of children with sensory alalia and children with hearing impairment compensated by cochlear implants is growing. In connection with the increase in their number, the question of what principles should be used to build a correctional program for such children and what features should be taken into account.
Objective. To outline general directions of correctional work with these nosological groups, based on their existing disorders.
Features of children with sensory alalia. According to researchers, the basis of impaired speech development of children with sensory alalia is the inability to comprehend speech due to existing disorders in the temporal regions of the brain. Children with sensory alalia are characterized by a lag in speech development, scant auditory memory, difficulties of arbitrary attention, hypersensitivity to sounds.
Characteristics of children with a cochlear implant. As a result of a review of the literature on the development of children with implants, we have identified such features as delayed speech development caused by problems in speech perception, problems in attention allocation, poor conceptual thinking, and impaired memory functions.
Discussions. The main similarity of the selected nosological groups is the lack of the ability to understand the meaning of words and to connect the sound stimulus with its meaning. Based on the identified features of such children, we conclude that it is necessary to conduct corrective work with them, based on stimulating the child to contact with an adult through speech and creating a situation of success. At the initial stages of rehabilitation, the child should learn to recognize sounds, identify their source and direction. The next stages include vocabulary expansion and grammar learning.
