    Determinants of Opposition to Modern Cultural Diffusion in the Theory of L. Vygotsky
    (Scientific Center of Innovative Researches OÜ (Tallinn, Estonia), 2025) Sizov, Vitalii; Sheviakov, Oleksii; Slavska, Yanina; Alforov, Oleksanr
    ENG: The article deals with the essence and meaning of the cultural-historical theory of L. Vygotsky, who revealed the social nature of formation of a personality's mental qualities. The main objective of the study is to analyze the trends of multiculturalism as a counterbalance to the process of cultural diffusion. The study highlights the elements of pedagogical technology, which should be based on a cultural and historical basis and, in turn, provides support for the formation of a general concept of education in society. The psychological features of understanding the patterns of the pedagogy development and the formation of methodological basis of the pedagogical science in the modern socio-cultural space are stated. According to L. Vygotsky's concept, the cultural development of a child involves a process in which biological characteristics (ability to remember and think) are transformed into social ones, and the social ones are transformed into psychological ones, modifying the mechanisms of cognitive processes of manifestation and development of memory and thinking. L. Vygotsky substantiates that with this development, the reflex mechanisms fade into the background, but the socio-cultural ones become a priority. The sources characterizing social relations and social interaction, which can become an internal higher mental function, are analyzed. In the act of experiencing, their dramatic collision is melted down and results in a change of the personality structure, becoming an act of development. The topic of social relations that form patterns and models of behaviour is actualized. The emphasis is made on the fact that social relations are not always reduced to collective ones, the sociality can serve as a source of personal experience. The concept of a sign is considered, where consciousness manipulates symbols and concepts. Thus, the cultural-historical theory of L. Vygotsky as an example of cultural relativism can be opposed to modern processes of cultural diffusion.

    Development of Non-Professional Physical Education Among Students: Literature Review of Psychological and Pedagogical Support
    (Scientific Center of Innovative Research OÜ (Estonia), 2023) Prykhodko, Volodymyr; Sheviakov, Oleksii; Burlakova, Iryna; Slavska, Yanina; Cherednichenko, Oleksii
    ENG: In the case of specialties called "civilian", the focus is not on the nature and specificity of official operations using physical qualities, as is the case in the practice of professional physical training, but other approaches. The purpose of the research is to actualize the need and reveal the essence of such an aspect of physical education as non-professional physical education of students. The methods of theoretical research, study and generalization of data from literary sources, abstraction, analysis and synthesis, induction and deduction are used. An innovative approach to strengthening the educational component of the educational discipline "Physical Culture" in institutions of general secondary education and "Physical Education" in institutions of higher education has been transformed into research and practice in a number of countries. Nonprofessional physical education is a high level of physical education. The main sign of education is the inclusion of a person in physical activity. In institutions of higher education, this is a pedagogical process that should "close" the long-term withdrawal of youth with physical education. The results of the formation of the theoretical thinking of the projective type necessary for an educated person are foreseen. In the course of such conscious physical education, which is not the same as physical literacy, the values and goals of using physical education in various situations, which are constantly changing, are formed. These are also abilities necessary for creating an image of "myself in the future", designing and implementing systems of own physical education classes. Non-professional physical education of students of civil specialties should contribute to the formation of a person capable of using physical education. Non-professional physical education is singled out as an independent direction, which is determined by the characteristics of the personality of adults: the complexity of organizing reflection, communication, understanding, self-determination of a person and goal setting. The results of the research can be useful and applied in practice by specialists in physical culture and education.

    («Public Administration and Law Review» is Scientific Center of Innovative Research OÜ (Estonia), 2024) Mitova, Olena; Sheviakov, Oleksii; Slavska, Yanina; Cherednichenko, Oleksii
    ENG: In the case of the first year of mini-basketball lessons for children, the emphasis is not on the nature and specificity of training actions using physical qualities, as is the case in the practice of professional physical training, but on other approaches. The purpose of the study is to actualize the need and reveal the essence of such an aspect of physical education as a motivational component of value orientations. The methods of theoretical research, study and generalization of data from literary sources, abstraction, analysis and synthesis, induction and deduction, empirical research are used. An innovative approach to strengthening the motivational component of the educational discipline of value orientations in mini-basketball classes has gained scientific and practical application in a number of countries. Mini-basketball is a high level of dynamic physical education and sport. The main feature of education is the inclusion of the child in motor activity. In sports facilities, this is a pedagogical process that should "close" a child's long-term withdrawal from physical education. The results of the formation of the value-based thinking of the projective type necessary for the child are foreseen. In the course of such conscious physical education, which is not the same as physical activity, the values and goals of using physical education in various game situations are formed, which are constantly changing. These are also the abilities necessary to create a motivational image of "myself in the future", design and implement systems of own minibasketball lessons. Systematic physical education of children should contribute to the formation of a motivated personality. Playing minibasketball stands out as an independent direction, which is determined by the characteristics of the child's personality: the complexity of organizing reflection, communication, understanding, self-determination and goal setting. The results of the research can be useful and applied in practice by physical culture and sports specialists.

    Psychoprophylaxis of the Professional Training Crisis
    (Дніпровський державний університет внутрішніх справ, 2022) Sheviakov, Oleksiy; Burlakova, Irina; Kornienko, Victoria; Slavska, Yanina; Ostapenko, Igor; Gerasimchuk, Oleksandr
    ENG: The article defines the main approaches to the psychological support of the process of preventing the crisis of professional training in higher education seekers. The factors of the crisis of professional training among applicants of veterinary and medical specialties are characterized. Features of the system structure of mental phenomena and the concept of psychological support of the process of psychoprophylaxis are considered. It is emphasized the need to implement a systematic approach based on empirical data, which includes research aimed at harmonizing the psychological state of drug addicts. Empirical research revealed the peculiarities of the social functioning of applicants for veterinary and medical specialties. There are differences in the psychological well-being of specialists of such specialties: they are characterized by a predominance of interest in the history of medicine, which reflects their interest in the profession, admiration for it; in the period of crisis, the self-esteem and locus of control indicators of achievers are such as to indicate inadequate assessment and inability to use their own strength to achieve the goal. Psychological support of professional adaptation during this period of time involves determining the volume, quality and form of providing information about the enterprise, farm, department, specifics of activity, various services, about the team, its structure, traditions, group norms, social expectations regarding the newcomer, etc. As a rule, such information comes to an adapting person in one form or another, in sufficient or excessive amounts, but without any scientific justification. The above experiments conducted by us allow us to draw preliminary conclusions. Indeed, the professional formation of students is accompanied by critical moments, the most difficult of which is the crisis of professional training, which falls on the 3rd year. Providing psychoprophylactic help to students, by applying the proposed historical-scientific method, allows to prevent extremely negative consequences that can deform the personality. Accordingly, further development and testing of the historical-scientific method of psychoprophylaxis against a wider background is needed to recommend its use to teachers and students.

Ericksonian hypnosis is proposed in the treatment of post-traumatic stress disorder - a complex mental condition that arises as a result of trauma. The experience of hypnotherapy as a therapy with an artificial lie for the sake of a positive result is presented. Erikson's hypnotherapy is a psychotherapeutic approach that uses a hypnotic trance to help the patient use their own mental associations, memories, and life potential to achieve their therapeutic goals.

    Specificity of the Pedagogical Environment of a Higher Educational Institution of Musical Direction and Pedagogical Characteristics of Cognitive Features of Higher Education Applicants
    (Scientific Center of Innovative Research OÜ, Estonia, 2024) Sizov, Vitalii; Sheviakov, Oleksii; Slavska, Yanina; Karas, Vitalii; Bondarenko, Oksana
    ENG: This study examines the pedagogical environment of higher educational institutions in musical directions and the cognitive characteristics of students within such settings. Musical education, characterized by individual-focused pedagogy, deviates significantly from traditional, collective-oriented higher education systems. These differences highlight the necessity for specialized pedagogical approaches. The primary aim is to identify and analyze the specific pedagogical and cognitive characteristics within music education environments. Objectives include assessing the role of intrapsychic and interpsychic factors in shaping pedagogical interactions and exploring the implications for curriculum development and student engagement. The study employed a combination of literature review, pedagogical observation, documentary analysis, testing, experiments, and statistical methods to evaluate the unique aspects of music education environments. The research highlights the distinctiveness of the musical education environment, which prioritizes emotional engagement and individualized learning. Key findings reveal that music students often demonstrate heightened individualism, emotional reliance, and unique cognitive features shaped by their immersive creative environment. However, limited social interaction and conceptual thinking pose challenges to broader cognitive development. Despite this, over 90% of graduates pursue careers aligned with their specialized training. The pedagogical environment significantly influences the formation of cognitive and professional attributes. Interpersonal and environmental factors play a central role, with implications for fostering meaningful values in professional education. Further studies should focus on developing tailored pedagogical technologies that address the specific needs of music education systems. These technologies should integrate cognitive and emotional dimensions to enhance professional training outcomes while addressing identified gaps in social and conceptual development.

    Teaching History in High School as A Way to Build A Complex of Self-Identifications of High School Students
    (Scientific Center of Innovative Researches OÜ, Tallinn, Estonia, 2024) Vakulik, Vyacheslav; Sheviakov, Oleksii; Slavska, Yanina; Vakulik, Sophіa
    ENG: This study examines the role of history education in shaping the complex self-identifications of high school students, highlighting itssignificance in the broader context of democratic education principles and human rights. Recognizing the transformative power of history education, the research investigates how historical narratives and teaching methodologies influence students’ identity formation and their perception of societal roles. Through a mixed-methods approach, involving surveys and observations from 300 high school students across ten schools in the Dnipropetrovsk region, this study explores the interplay between historical education and student self-identity, focusing on the integration of multiple perspectives, critical thinking, and ethical reflection in the curriculum. The findings reveal that exposure to diverse historical viewpoints not only enhances students' understanding of history but also actively supports their personal and social identity development. Critical engagement with historical content, especially involving ethical dilemmas and social injustices, encourages deep reflection and aids in forming a nuanced personal and social identity. Moreover, the study addresses the challenges posed by global educational dynamics and the media, which often contrast with the objectives of historical education, suggesting that an enriched historical curriculum can serve as a counterbalance to external influences. The research underscores the need for history educators to adopt inclusive and reflective pedagogical strategies that foster a critical understanding of history while supporting complex identity formation among students. By doing so, history education not only contributes to the academic development of students but also plays a crucial role in preparing them for active and informed citizenship in a democratic society. The study’s recommendations advocate for continuous teacher development and curricular adjustments to better meet the diverse needs of students, ensuring that history education remains a pivotal element of modern educational systems.
