Among all the childhood influences that may affect individual development and contribute to breakdown in adult life, the quality of parental care has always appeared of paramount importance. The supposed sequelae of parents’ absence have been the subject of many studies, relating particularly to depression (Dennehy, 1966, and Hill and Price, 1967) and to attempted suicide (Greer et al., 1966). In the latter study a significant association was established between absence of either parent and a later suicidal attempt, especially if the absence started in the first five years of life.

The effect that childhood experience may have upon the individual's adult life has always been a subject of great interest.Since the publication of Freud's essay on “Mourning and Melancholia” (1917), much thought has been devoted to the influence of bereavement in childhood, more especially as an antecedent to depressive illness in the adult. Bereavement is peculiarsluyitable for such an investigation since the death of a parent is one of the few reasonably frequent events which are largely independent of the behavioural pattern of the family.

Since in most cultures it is normal practice for children to be reared by their parents, there is a general consensus of opinion that it is undesirable to be deprived of one's parents in childhood. This can scarcely be disputed, but to assert, as many authorities do, that a variety of severe psychological abnormalities may arise in the child as a result of such deprivation is to make an assumption of some magnitude. It requires an even greater assumption to postulate a causal connection between a long-past occurrence like childhood bereavement and a psychiatric illness which develops in adult life. It will be contended here that, with some exceptions, the evidence for such a connection is meagre. In particular, it will be shown that there is no apparent justification for regarding parental deprivation as an aetiological factor in depressive illness.

This scientific article discusses the organization of methodological work on the formation of ideas about the environment in children with intellectual disabilities of school age.. The shortcomings of children with intellectual disabilities are well known. Improving the quality of such manifestations is one of the prerequisites for successful socialization. When preparing students to perform practical work, it is necessary to take into account the level of formation of skills in General educational activities and the requirements for the use of instructions in a special correctional school. In the works of defectologists who study the features of cognitiveactivity of oligophrenic children, there are significant potential opportunities for the development of cognitive processes in children with intellectual disabilities and the determining factor for achieving this goal is a specially organized system of their training. In special pedagogy, the question of the need for widespread use of helpless work of students to improve the quality of knowledge, skills, and preparation of mentally retarded students for adult life and work is relevant. For mentally retarded students, a properly organized individual educational activity is of particular importance for the corrective and developmental impact and improvement of their individual qualities.Independent performance of various tasks by students helps to successfully implement the educational and correctional capabilities of the subject.

Results. "Time Management" is one of the basis disci-pline for the training of not only future managers, but also specialists of other professionals, who focus on mastering time management tools. It is defined that using active and person-centered ap-proaches allowing to consider as much as possible per-sonal characteristics of the student and to construct his subject model is expedient at practical classes.It is noted that the discipline involves mastering of technologies increasing personal efficiency through time management, setting goals, planning and organizing professional activi-ty and personal life, self-motivation and self-control skills. It is reasoned that the effective factor influencing the achievement of the intended result is the technology used by the teacher in the course of practical training. Originality. The research reveals the peculiarities of practical classes in the discipline "Time management". Conclusion. Designing time management practical classes gives you the opportunity to reconcile the purpose and content of the discipline, as well as the technology and learning outcomes.

This paper focuses on the understanding of service quality in the context of Vietnamese universities. It proposes an approach for measuring the quality of the higher education service provided by universities in Vietnam. Firstly, an exploratory study was conducted. Then, the set of items which were generated became the subject of a questionnaire that was then administered to 675 students of a Vietnamese university to determine the dimensions of higher education service quality in this context. The obtained results permit us to appropriate a measurement scale which is slightly different from the SERVQUAL scale widely known as the standard for measuring service quality. The results also show that tangible elements, responsiveness and assurance seem to be three specific dimensions of the higher education service of Vietnamese universities.

The recent reprinting of Álvaro de Silva’s 1998 edition of a selection of More’s letters prompts the author to examine the subject of Spanish translations of More, and of de Silva’s general commentary on More’s correspondence and on his relationship to other humanists. The author reflects on aspects of More’s personality as exposed in his letters and uses what he finds as a corrective to several biographical misconceptions. He points out the strengths and weaknesses of de Silva’s work and compares it with that of other translators, particularly Elizabeth Rogers, and notes the particularly Spanish quality of de Silva’s edition.

The aspiration to keep the synergy in relations between majorities and minorities repeatedly emerges as the cause of conflicts in social relations. It is also a subject of the interest of the multicultural education, particularly in countries of Eastern Europe, building contacts with the culturally and ethnically diverse groups to a wider scale. Relations in culturally, religiously and ethnic diverse societies, are becoming more and more related to the personal attitudes and a given policy. These issues acquire in the prison circumstances even greater significance, as given moods and personal attitudes of the prison staff create the pragmatic aspects of the professional activities addressed to the sentenced. Additionally, the key role is played by the quality of the penitentiary policy and the legal culture. The article presents the comparative analysis of the research carried out in 2016 amongst the prison staff in Poland. The subject of the research concerned attitudes that influence the decisive processes. The personal relations have been analyzed in the context of the relation with the sentenced Muslims. The aim of the research was not only to reveal the quality of the decisions concerning the sentenced Muslims, but also the sources of such decisions. The latter, in consequence, may shift, as the research results prove, towards synergy or discrimination. The diversification of the discrimination was one of the intriguing aspects, disclosed at various levels that not always explicitly concerned the discrimination of the minority.
