Based on the generalization of the results of research on the psychological well-being of the individual, the characteristics of socialization in the digital environment, patterns of development in adolescence, to identify criteria for assessing the well-being of adolescents in the context of digital socialization. Background. The psychological well-being of a teenager in the context of studying the processes of socialization is the systemic integrity of his subjective assessments of satisfaction with the current standard of living, the development of psychological mechanisms of positive functioning in adolescents, positive assessments of the main domains of well-being. The inclusion of a teenager in a digital environment often takes place without the participation and control of parents and teachers, and digital technologies are becoming a new cultural tool for the socialization of adolescents and largely determine the quality of socialization outcomes regardless of the actions of adults. In conditions of a certain shortage of digital competencies and the inability to use traditional criteria for the success of socialization, the search for reliable educational guidelines becomes an important pedagogical task for both parents and teachers. Well-being, both in its objective indicators and in its subjective representations, can be considered as a guideline in assessing the outcomes of digital socialization of modern adolescents. Methodology. Theoretical analysis of the problem of adolescent well-being in the context of the study of socialization. Conclusions. In adolescence, the main contribution to psychological well-being in the context of socialization in the digital environment will be to meet the need for competence and the need for interaction with other people. Throughout adolescence, the dominant importance of personal neoplasms in the formation of well-being will range from independence, \"subjectivity of authorship\" of younger adolescents, communicative and digital competence of middle adolescents, to the meaningful fullness of the future and the experience of social success in the digital environment of older adolescents. The criteria for the psychological well-being of adolescents in the context of socialization processes in the digital environment will be: prosocial behavior; the level of digital literacy; the amount of screen time; a sense of happiness; optimism; involvement in socially useful activities; trusting relationships with other people; meaningful and targeted fullness of the time perspective.","PeriodicalId":54079,"journal":{"name":"Social Psychology and Society","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2024-07-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141802486","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}

{"title":"Strategic Approach to Measuring Digitalization of Human Resource Management Systems: Example of Russian Companies","authors":"E. K. Zavyalova, A.K.

Development and empirical approbation of a strategic approach for evaluating digitalization of human resource management systems (HRM). Background. The electronic HRM (e-HRM) system has reached a transformational level of development, attracting increased attention from researchers and practitioners. However, the concept of e-HRM is still in its early stage of development. This paper contributes to the discussion about operationalizing this phenomenon by proposing an original e-HRM scale based on stakeholder theory and the Harvard strategic model of HRM. Study design. The paper investigated a model of strategic approach to measuring digitalization of HRM, namely how stakeholders' interests are related to e-HRM processes and outcomes. The proposed scales' reliability and validity were tested using exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis, while hierarchical regression analysis was used to check the presence and nature of the relationship. Participants. The study used a random sample of respondents from 449 companies in Russia from 16 industries located in cities with a population of more than 800 thousand people and having more than 50 employees. Measurements. The authors' scales include e-HRM, stakeholder interests, and e-HRM results. Results The research introduces systematic approach for evaluating the processes related to digital transformation of HRM in Russian companies, which allows assessing the results of e-HRM from the strategic perspective. The proposed scales demonstrate a high level of validity and reliability. The research showed that strategic perspective to e-HRM, being based on interests of stakeholders, affect both e-HRM (β = 0,379) and e-HRM results (β = 0,455). Conclusions. The strategic approach based on stakeholder theory and the Harvard HRM model has proven to be an effective methodology for assessing e-HRM: the higher the degree of orientation of the company's HRM department's activities towards stakeholder goals, the higher the level and effectiveness of digitalization. The evaluation methodology includes a 5-factor model for analyzing e-HRM according to the following criteria: 1. the degree of implementation of digitalization in the implementation of modern HRM programs and practices; 2. the efficiency of the organization of HRM digitalization processes; 3. the practical value of the implementation of digitalization processes in relation to the achievement of key HRM objectives in the company.","PeriodicalId":54079,"journal":{"name":"Social Psychology and Society","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2024-07-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141802948","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}

Analyzing the correlations between the attributes of deceptive self-representation on a social network and formal attributes, motivations for utilizing social networks, the incorporation of social networks into everyday routines, and feelings of loneliness. Background. The frequent utilization of social networks is linked to the necessity of projecting one's digital persona. Social networks offer more possibilities for deceit in self-representation. Insufficient research has been conducted on self-presentation that is intended to be demonstrative, with the goal of impressing or deceiving others, as well as the correlation between such false self-presentation and other psychological traits and patterns of social media usage. Study design. The study investigated the correlation between measures of deceptive self-presentation, duration of social media usage, quantity of social media platforms, number of social media connections, reasons for using social media, measures of social media integration into daily routines, and feelings of loneliness. The correlation and regression analyses were used to assess the existence and characteristics of the association. Participants. A total of 432 adolescents, with 54% being girls, were included in the study. Their ages ranged from 13 to 18 years old, with a mean age of 15,6 years and a standard deviation of 1,18. Measurements. Questions pertaining to the formal attributes of social media utilization. The items that comprise the study include the Social Media Integration Scale, the Social Network Use Motives Scale, the Three-Item Loneliness Scale, and the Social Network Self-Presentation Scale. Results. Specificity is revealed in the relationships between the characteristics of false self-presentation. A desire to make an impression and the act of displaying oneself both share comparable connections, in contrast to the act of presenting oneself in a deceitful manner. Factors that can be used to anticipate deceptive self-presentation include the duration of social network usage, the extensive incorporation of social networks into everyday activities, motives related to gaming, and experiences of loneliness. Conclusions. False self-presentation is linked to the formal aspects of social network usage, motivational traits, and feelings of loneliness.","PeriodicalId":54079,"journal":{"name":"Social Psychology and Society","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2024-07-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141805313","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}

A review and theoretical analysis of scientific publications on the topic of leadership in an inclusive school and posted on the SpringerLink and Taylor & Francis Group platforms. Background. After the adoption of the Salamanca Declaration (1994), inclusion occupies an important place on the agenda of educational transformations. Its vector is to find ways to increase the participation and learning of students from socially vulnerable groups and those at risk of exclusion in school and beyond. The scientific relevance of the problem lies in the fact that, despite the importance of leadership in inclusive education, there are critically few works devoted to this topic, especially in Russia. Methodology. Theoretical analysis of literary sources, analytical and synthetic method of bibliographic search, generalization, method of comparative analysis. Conclusions. Leadership is seen as a discourse and practice. The article presents the main styles of educational leadership, special attention is paid to the theories of transformational and distributed leadership. The tools of leadership research in inclusive education are described. The position of school principals regarding diversity is one of the determining factors of the success/failure of school inclusion. Leadership style significantly affects the views, behavior, communication of teachers, their self-efficacy, and learning strategies. The attitude of school principals to inclusive education is determined by three groups of factors: 1) related to children (type of disability, for example); 2) related to the environment – cultural, historical and organizational (resources); 3) related to the personality of the director (gender, age, qualifications, inclusive training, self-efficacy, experience, values).

The aim is to present an algorithm to reconstruct media social representations based on indicators of text statistics and to conduct a comparative analysis of the construction of semantically similar media joint ventures, such as “pandemic”, “coronavirus”, “COVID-19” in Russian media. Background. Social representations perform the most important functions in the process of social functioning of an individual and a group, serve as a tool for cognition, adaptation and regulation of behavior and are formed taking into account the influence of media social representations. Methods for studying social representations for various social groups are presented in psychological studies, however, methods for studying media social representations are discussed in single scientific work. The presented scientific project is based on the theory of social representations by S. Moskovici and generalizations by B. Hoyer regarding the construction of media social representations (naming, emotional attachment, thematic attachment, metaphorical attachment and attachment through basic antinomies). Study design. The phenomenon of the coronavirus pandemic, presented in media discourse, was used as the signified in the study. The signifier is a trio of semantically similar concepts (“pandemic”, “COVID”, “coronavirus”). Measurements. To reconstruct media social representations, statistically stable collocations were identified to indicate the measure of association, logically close to the associative experiment. Hence, it was possible to identify thematic networks, axiological and evaluative components, components-characteristics of activity. The research material is represented by texts about the COVID-19 pandemic (January 2020-March 2022: “Rossiyskaya Gazeta”: 19471 texts, 7,97 million words; “Kommersant”: 1482 texts, 1,07 million words, “Novaya Gazeta”: 705 texts, 0,9 million words) and processed using BootCat, TreeTagger, AntConc (lemmatization, frequency analysis). Results. The associative fields of the joint ventures are different and contain anchoring and objectification resources when using concepts, only few elements of the associative field are similar. Thus, depending on the concept used to signify the intent of the text, stories about the fear of infection, the treatment of the disease, or resistance to the harsh elements are created. Conclusions. The similar algorithm based on media text statistics can be used to reconstruct any media social representation.","PeriodicalId":54079,"journal":{"name":"Social Psychology and Society","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2024-04-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140717368","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}
