SELF-REGULATION AS A CRITERION OF PSYCHOLOGICAL READINESS TO SUCCESSFUL MASTERING THE PHASES OF RESEARCH ACTIVITY OF YOUNG SCIENTISTS // Pedagogical Review. 2016. Issue 2 (12). P. 9-15

The results of study of self-regulation of behaviour as a criterion of psychological readiness to successful implementation of research activity are presented. The main phases of research activity within conceptual model of the activity dynamic structure by R. Kh. Shakurov are considered. The study sample included 88 postgraduate students and masters engaged in research work. For revealing the features of the processes of selfregulation of young scientists’ behavior, “Style of Self-Regulation of Behavior” technique by V. I. Morosanova was used. Processes of planning and estimation of results are the most expressed ones in young scientists’ profile of self-regulation. Two factors, tentatively named “flexibility in search for decisions and estimation of results” and “independence in goal setting”, indicating features of styles of self-regulation of young scientists have been distinguished. Gender differences in indicators of the process of planning have been established. Young scientists of male sample had more developed individual features of goal setting and goal retention. It has been revealed that postgraduate students, as opposed to the masters, are forming their program of actions for implementation of tasks of research activity more independently.

DEFICIT OF MNEMIC POTENTIAL OF CONCEPTUAL THINKING AS A COGNITIVE BARRIER IN RESEARCH ACTIVITY OF YOUNG SCIENTISTS // Pedagogical Review. 2017. Issue 1 (15). P. 133-141

The artice presents the results of the study of the degree of the mnemic potential of the conceptual structure and its relationship with the style of young scientists’ self-regulation. The study has included 122 young scientists (postgraduate students and masters involved in research activity). Methods of research: technique by M. A. Kholodnaya “Formulation of Problems”, questionnaire by V. I. Morosanova “Style of Self-Regulation of Behavior” (SSRBM). The study has resulted in revealing the insufficiently formed volume and complexity of mnemic potential of conceptual structures of young scientists evidencing limitation to bring forth and define the problem of their own research, difficulty in identifying its interdisciplinary nature. A positive relationship of indicators of complexity of defined problems with the process of planning of their own activity has been found. The findings can testify to narrow-mindedness in bringing forth a problem of own research, difficulty in definition of its interdisciplinary nature, difficulty in the problem formulation with use of scientific language. Lack of mnemic potential of conceptual thinking in junior scientists with the low level of planning can act as a cognitive barrier of successful development of stages of research activity. The findings give the grounds for more in-depth study of cognitive structure of conceptual thinking by means of psychodiagnostics methods as well as development of the program of individual coaching of young scientists during training for research activity.

TO THE QUESTION OF THE BASES OF PSYCHOLOGICAL SUPPORT OF EDUCATION AMONG FOREIGN STUDENTS FROM THE POSITION OF THE ANTHROPO-SYSTEM APPROACH IN PSYCHOLOGY // Pedagogical Review. 2022. Issue 5 (45). P. 158-168

The foundations of psychological support for the adaptation process among foreign students are considered from the standpoint of the anthropo-system approach. Within the framework of this approach, it is established that psychological stress acts as a mechanism of self-development, selfrealization and personal growth of a person. In this connection, the work with the adaptation among foreign students should be focused on the development of constructive strategies, resources and skills of students to overcome emerging difficulties, methods and skills of intercultural communication, as well as on creating conditions (internal and external) for creative self-realization, which will allow students to become more sensitive and aware of their own changes, and more sensitive in relation to the capabilities of the environment. It is determined that such activity, aimed both at finding the conditions of the environment for the realization of their meanings and values, and at its active transformation, makes it possible to improve both the quality of life and the subjective well-being among young people. It is established that the main indicators of successful adaptation and the possibility of foreign students’ self-realization in the multicultural educational space of the university are subjective quality of life, positive ethnic identity and tolerance.
