Phenomenologically, one can speak about many similar features uniting real and virtual spaces. We can assume the similarity of different types of transitivity (crisis and fluid) with different types of work in virtuality (on-line and off-line).Therefore, it is important to understand the styles of behavior, the emotions of people in a situation of different changes, different types of transitivity and different types of Internet communication. These questions became the base of the empirical study which was carried out in 2018-2019 years and consisted of two stages. The study involved young people, students of Moscow universities. The obtained results showed that in general in the on-linesituation the overall level of psychological well-being is lower than in an off-line situation. The similarities in the profiles obtained by presenting positive and negative words showed the similarity in emotional responses to crisis situations in the real and virtual world. Thus, we can say that the constant on-line situation becomes a difficult life situation for many young people. The transparency of the network most negatively affects people who assess the situation as rigid transitivity.","PeriodicalId":196737,"journal":{"name":"Advances in Psychology and Psychological Trends","volume":"21 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127307852","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For our research purposes, 313 questionnaires were distributed to school teachers throughout Greece.The results revealthat teachers seem to express their own points and feelings actively and without fear. Moreover, they appear to vividly propose actions for the common good. Furthermore, it appears that there exists a strong relation between dimensions of voice, years in service, type of educational establishment and place of work while, gender does not affect the way teachers express themselves. We stress that, organisational voice as perceived and expressed in professional environments, constitutes an indicator and a valuable factor closely related to organisational effectiveness and development.","PeriodicalId":196737,"journal":{"name":"Advances in Psychology and Psychological Trends","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128888043","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the strategies adopted were largely self-devised. These included establishing a good relationship with the student and keeping daily routines consistent. All respondents expressed the desire to be provided with further training opportunities.

For this purpose, 653 volunteeredparticipants (360 females and 293 males) whose ages were between 18 and 50 (M= 24.90, SD= 7.57) were recruited from various cities in Turkey. For data collection, Multidimensional Perfectionism Scale (MPS), Self-Handicapping Scale (SHS), Self-Compassion Scale (SCS), Brief Symptom Inventory (BSI)and Satisfaction with Life Scale (SWLS)were administered. The findings indicated that self-compassion was negatively correlated with all perfectionism domains and self-handicapping. Moreover, self-handicapping was positively correlated with socially prescribed perfectionism, but negativelycorrelated withself-oriented perfectionism.The resultsof the hierarchical regression analyses revealedthat psychological symptoms were positively associated with socially prescribed perfectionism and self-handicapping, but negatively associated with self-compassion. Finally, satisfaction with life was found to be positively associated with self-oriented perfectionism and self-compassion, while negatively associated with socially prescribed perfectionism.These findings highlighted the importance of different aspectsof perfectionism regarding to psychological well-being and its related components.","PeriodicalId":196737,"journal":{"name":"Advances in Psychology and Psychological Trends","volume":"86 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126174203","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Because the factor structure with constituent items of the Intercultural Sensitivity Scale was unresolved, we first examined the configuration of its latent constructs and then identified four underlying components.

If youthstrengths are aligned with the resources in their environment, positive youth development outcomes (5Cs: Competence, Confidence, Character, Connection, and Caring) will be more probable,and risky behavioursless frequent. Itis crucial to understand the relationship between possible protective factors (e.g., 5Cs) and risky behaviours to provide support for at-risk youth. An emphasis was put on the national contexts of Kosovo, Norway, and Slovenia in investigating the research questions:1) Does the experience of 5Cs differ across countries? and 2) Does the relation between 5Cs and risky behaviours vary across countries? The sample included 916 participants from Kosovo (66.3% girls; Mage= 16.32), 220 participants from Norway (47.7% girls; Mage= 17.30) and 218 participants from Slovenia (70.6% girls; Mage= 17.18).Results show that the 5Cs differ across countries, revealing that participants from Slovenia reported the lowest scores of the 5Cs in comparison with participants from other countries. In addition, a series of Factorial ANCOVAs revealed that relation between alcohol use and 5Csvaries across countries for Competence, Confidence, and Connection.

The active development of the fuel and energy sector causing environmental problems limits the opportunities for traditional farming and creates a need to change the economic behavior strategies of the indigenous peoples of the North. The attitude to money among the Nenets was studied (N = 150) using the scale of monetary perceptions and behavior (Furnham, 1984). The results of the factor analysis have showed a more fractional structure than in Furnham's studies (1984, 2014) indicating a complex and ambiguous (more diverse) picture of the reflection of money in the economic mind of northern peoples (9 factors). The main trends in the monetary attitudes of the Nenets were identified. They donot put money first in their values, do not use them as a tool of influence on other people, they respect those who know how to save money and do not spend it in vain. At the same time, there is a place for financial anxiety and pessimism, negative feelings related to money. The results should be taken into account in the program for the transformation of the economic behavior of the northern indigenous peoples.","PeriodicalId":196737,"journal":{"name":"Advances in Psychology and Psychological Trends","volume":"66 2","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"113967317","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
