Relevance. Evaluation of initial forms for breeding is one of the stages of the selection process. The global gene pool of spring barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) is replenished annually with hundreds of new varieties containing a different combination of genes. In this regard, it is relevant to constantly study accessions of different geographical origins according to various criteria, including productivity indicators. The research was conducted to identify genotypes for creating a new highly productive breeding material for spring barley.Methods. The objects of study were 59 accessions of spring barley (Hordeum vulgare L.), represented by forms from Russia, CIS countries, Europe and the USA. The study of the initial forms was carried out according to The guidelines for the study of the collection of barley and oats (VIR, 1981).Results. As a result of the study of the spring barley initial material in condition of the Samara region (Kinel) in 2017-2019, 22 varieties were identified that are characterized by consistently high values of productivity indicator: Signal (K-30846, Altai region), Anna (K-30829, Orenburg region), T-12 (K-30990, Orenburg region), Lun’ (K-31101, Penza region), Vityaz (Samara region) — by the value of the indicator “weight thousand grain” above 40 g, recommended as sources for creating breeding material with high values of this criterions. The following varieties are recommended as sources for breeding work to increase the weight of 1000 grains, productive bushiness and plant productivity in the Middle Volga region: Veles (K-30982, Belgorod region), Volgar (K-29831, Samara region), Orlan (Samara region), Omsky 90 (K-30721, Omsk region) and Sasha (K-31110, Omsk region), Charivny (K-31063, Ukraine), KWS Tessa (Germany), AC 06/659/48/2 (Denmark), local (K-9267, Turkey).

Abstract. TV news are essentially cultural phenomena. Previous research suggests that the often-overlooked formal and implicit characteristics of newscasts may be systematically related to culture-specific characteristics. Investigating these characteristics by means of a frame-by-frame content analysis is identified as a particularly promising methodological approach. To examine the relationship between culture and selected formal characteristics of newscasts, we present an explorative study that compares material from the USA, the Arab world, and Germany. Results indicate that there are many significant differences, some of which are in line with expectations derived from cultural specifics. Specifically, we argue that the number of persons presented as well as the context in which they are presented can be interpreted as indicators of Individualism/Collectivism. The conclusions underline the validity of the chosen methodological approach, but also demonstrate the need for more comprehensive and theory-driven category schemes.

Abstract. The current study examines the item and scalar equivalence of an abbreviated school-based universal screener that was cross-culturally translated and adapted from English into German. The instrument was designed to assess student behavior problems that impact classroom learning. Participants were 1,346 K-6 grade students from the US (n = 390, Mage = 9.23, 38.5% female) and Germany (n = 956, Mage = 8.04, 40.1% female). Measurement invariance was tested by multigroup confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) across students from the US and Germany. Results support full scalar invariance between students from the US and Germany (df = 266, χ2 = 790.141, Δχ2 = 6.9, p < .001, CFI = 0.976, ΔCFI = 0.000, RMSEA = 0.052, ΔRMSEA = −0.003) indicating that the factor structure, the factor loadings, and the item thresholds are comparable across samples. This finding implies that a full cross-cultural comparison including latent factor means and structural coefficients between the US and the German version of the abbreviated screener is possible. Therefore, the tool can be used in German schools as well as for cross-cultural research purposes between the US and Germany.

Abstract. The aim of this research was to explore measurement invariance across samples from Serbia and the USA (Study 1) and to further validate the Serbian adaptation of the Pathological Narcissism Inventory – PNI (Study 2). The results supported the original seven-factor first-order structure as well as the hierarchical structure of the PNI with Narcissistic grandiosity and vulnerability as the second-order factors. Further, scalar invariance between the two versions of the PNI was achieved. Relations between Narcissistic grandiosity and vulnerability and other measures of grandiose and hypersensitive narcissism supported the validity of their scores. Among HEXACO traits, both Narcissistic grandiosity and vulnerability showed substantial negative correlations with Honesty-Humility. The main distinctions between the two aspects of narcissism lie in the positive relations with Neuroticism and negative relations with self-esteem, both of which are higher for Narcissistic vulnerability. The results support good psychometric properties of the PNI scores and add to the PNI’s cross-cultural validity.
