The article presents the results of the Identity Resilience Index (IRI) technique adaptation in Russian-speaking sample (N = 175) in 2023. IRI measures the degree of identity resilience as a cumulative assessment of the respondent’s self-esteem, self-efficacy, continuity and uniqueness. Factor analysis made it possible to clarify the internal IRI structure: 4 scales were identified. Cronbach’s alpha coefficients for all scales range from 0,915 to 0,883, which indicates good internal consistency. Internal and external validation checks were carried out. IRI scales demonstrated many positive and negative correlations with the scales of other techniques. The Russian version of the Identity Resilience Index can become a reliable and valid tool for determining the level of person’s identity resilience.

The use of the Pandas library for analyzing data arrays is considered, the advantages of this library for performing actions with numerical data and time series presented in the form of numerical tables. For comparison, the disadvantages of processing data arrays in Excel using trend analysis models, such as linear, logarithmic, polynomial, power, exponential, are indicated. The ability to process data by the Pandas library from different software environments, such as HTML and data buffers.

To solve the problem associated with highlighting the essence of updating modern teaching methods, which determines the readiness of a modern teacher for methodological activities in the development of the educational environment, a paradigmatic approach was chosen. When using this approach to analyze the genesis of teaching methods as a pedagogical phenomenon, paradigms of teaching methods are identified, for which the dominant teaching methods and the main factors influencing their emergence and (or) change in significance are indicated. Generalization of the established factors made it possible to draw a conclusion about the need to include in the operational composition of modern methods of teaching schoolchildren methods of working with information (its change, structuring and evaluation), as well as methods of self- and mutual learning, taking into account professional-conventional attitudes and communication possibilities of subjects of educational interaction in within the framework of cultural traditions and ideological rules.

The article discusses the results of a study of social representations of the life path, expressed through metaphors among students and respondents who completed their studies at a higher educational institution. The study involved 267 respondents aged 17 to 55 years (31 men and 236 women). Based on the conducted research, continuums of social representations of the life course were identified and substantiated at the theoretical level, and in accordance with them, the author’s approach to the analysis of data obtained in metaphorical essays was proposed. Data were obtained indicating the presence of specific social representations of students expressed through metaphors.

This article discusses the theoretical and philosophical, ethical, religious and psychological foundations of the agape love phenomenon and describes the results of a qualitative study of the worldview attitude and the agape love phenomenon in modern personalities.

In this study we test one of the key assumptions of the analysis of wrong answers on the Standard Progressive Matrices test approach — the assumption that “behind the correct answer lies the application of the correct principle for solving particular problem”. This popular alternative approach to psychometric studies of intelligence is based on assumptions that have not been empirically tested. After applying thematic analysis to the transcripts of interview-conversations with 9 and 11 year olds, who solved test tasks out loud, we were able to refute this assumption. We were able to claster identified explanations for the correct answers into several groups, which include both the application of the correct principle, as well as a series of incorrect ones — for example, creating a collection or visually complementing a pattern.

The article discusses the problem of mythology and folklore in an aggressive postmodern culture. Classical mythology is interpreted as an educational, moral, prehistoric phenomenon in contrast to modern consumer models of the irrational illusory mythology of postmodernism. The development of work with young people in the field of folklore and mythology is one of the central directions in the field of education and socialization.

Formative assessment is a pedagogical technology based on feedback from an expert and teacher self-assessment so that the certified teacher himself determines further steps to improve his own results. It is called formative, because it involves not only self-assessment of the professional achievements of the certified teacher, but also their deep self-analysis in order to identify professional deficits and determine the individual trajectory of professional self-development. Formative assessment needs to be learned, which is why the article describes a structural and functional model for implementing the technology of formative assessment in the process of certification of teachers, consisting of three components: target, activity and result.

the native language with the focus on motivational design. The study covers various aspects of using texts and exercises that are aimed at stimulating student motivation and interest in learning their native language. The analysis results allow to identify some characteristics of effective motivational design which foster student interest in educational materials. John Keller’s motivational model was utilized. It suggests designing the learning process (including educational tasks) by the means of four components such as learners’ attention, relevance, confidence and satisfaction.

The article analyzes the characteristic features of changes in the functioning of the pedagogical systems of the military units of the Russian Guard in the period from 2017 to the present. The problematic and contradictory nature of these changes is noted. The positive and negative aspects of solving educational tasks are revealed. Ideas are put forward about the organization of a criterion system for evaluating the pedagogical system of a military unit.

One way to represent the structure of students’ concepts is through the method of concept maps. Their analysis is effectively carried out using network theories, but for meaningful psychological interpretation the possibilities of mathematics are expectedly limited. At the same time, psychological theories of conceptual development provide meaningful directions for the mathematical analysis of concept maps and interpret the results of such analysis. The paper demonstrates possible ways of applying network analysis within the framework of L. S. Vygotsky’s theory.

Schulte tables are a traditional method for assessing attention and mental performance in children and adolescents. An updated version of the evaluation of data from the Schulte table methodology is proposed, along with the usual efficiency, mental stability and workability, the authors introduce an assessment of new parameters for the time of searching for numbers: fluctuation (the ratio of the sum of differences in absolute value between successive tables to the total cumulative time) and delta (the difference between the minimum and maximum time). The purpose of the work is to present new ways of processing results from Schulte tables and compare them with previously proven ones. The second basic purpose of publication is to normative data. Presented are survey data of 239 children and adolescents of the practical norm aged from 7 to 17 years (average age 11.9 years), students of secondary schools in Moscow and other cities of the Russian Federation, divided by age into groups 7–8 years, 9–10 years, 11–12 years old, 13–15 years old and 16–17 years old. Among them are 109 boys and 129 girls. The following main results were obtained: dynamic indicators of attention (ALL characteristics) are influenced by age characteristics, and not by gender differences; the influence of gender on work efficiency was found in the age range of 9–10 years. The indicators “Workability” and “Mental Stability” are approximately the same in all groups. Standards for all selected analysis parameters for 5 age groups of examined children and adolescents are presented as a practical norm.

The paper presents a new Russian-language instrument measuring child-parent relationships based on the concept of fundamental existential motivations by A. Laengle. During the focus group examination an original Russian-language set of 70 statements was developed, for the validation of which two online samples were used (N = 573 and N = 328). Using hierarchical cluster analysis and confirmatory factor analysis we arrived at a set of 36 items grouped into four scales corresponding to four fundamental existential motivations and 12 subscales corresponding to theoretical prerequisites of fundamental motivations. The scales demonstrate acceptable reliability (α in the .73–.96 range, 0.98 for the general score). We sought evidence of validity of the scales by using correlational and multiple regression analyses of their associations with indicators of the Big Five and Subjective Alienation Questionnaire. The results indicate that the “Test of Existential Motivations in Interpersonal Relationships with Mother/Father” (TEMIR-M/F) questionnaire demonstrated high levels of internal consistency and reliability. Designed for an integral retrospective assessment of one’s relationship with parents the new instrument opens up new opportunities for empirical research in the field of child-parent relationships and can also be used in assessment, counseling and psychotherapy.

The article considers a set of measures that ensure the successful formation of technological competence in students. Fundamental aspects of the formation of technological skills are revealed using the example of acquiring experience in the interaction of radiation and matter. This includes theoretical and practical education, scientific research and the application of knowledge in real projects. The competency-based approach is the basis for determining the ways and conditions for increasing the effectiveness of the formation of technological competence in students, as well as the optimal solution of professional problems by graduates using various technologies. Taking into account modern approaches to improving the process of forming technical skills in students in the field of research into the interaction of radiation and matter, the article lays the foundation for further developments in this area.

The article is devoted to the experimental study of the formation of language analysis skills in modern children with varying degrees of severity of writing disorders. 98 subjects studied the skill of text and sentence analysis, syllabic and phonemic (sound) analysis for 3 years. In parallel, during the period of study in the first and second grade, children’s writing skills were studied. In the future, the formation of all types of analysis in children with varying degrees of severity of writing disorders in all periods of study was analyzed. The article may be of interest not only to speech pathologists, primarily speech therapists, but also to preschool teachers and primary school teachers.

The article presents the results of an empirical test of the three-factor model of the need for belonging. The work is aimed at clarifying the boundaries of the phenomenon of the need for belonging in the theory of self-determination by E. Desi and R. Ryan. The three factors identified through the focus group and oral survey have no empirical justification. The model was tested on the basis of three groups of people who have differently frustrated need for belonging: the homeless (12 men (age: 28–55 years), 12 women (age: 32–63), people with drug addiction (2 men (age: 30 and 55 years old), 6 women (age 20–40 years old) and bullying victims (7 women (age 31–48 years old) and one man (31 years old). Their answers were compared with the conditional norm. Total study participants — 57 people: 34 women (age 2063 years), 23 men (age 2655 years). Three independent factors were identified, which, in the first approximation, confirmed the theoretical model.
