The issue of studying the valuable attitude to themselves and others associates with the high generality and low operationalization of this construct. We examined 13 operational parameters that reveal the multi-dimensional content of this concept and use correlation analysis to examine interconnections in the structure of the teachers personal qualities. Study sample: 259 female teachers from urban and rural areas. Methods: the Russian version of the CPI and the author's graphical method of studying the valuable attitude to themselves and others. We found 17 valid and reliable (from p≤0,05 to p≤0,001) connections. The "core" of valuable attitude to themselves and others in the structure of the teacher personality includes such parameters as "a tendency to appreciate others "above average" and "ability to assess softly "non-ideal" others". These parameters are most closely associated with "tolerance", "sense of wellbeing", "intellectual efficiency", "achievement through independence." The results are useful for the development of the construct of «valuable attitude», refinement the model of teacher personal competence, and for the psychological support for teachers.

Introduction. The processes of urbanization are a global trend and lead to the formation and further development of agglomerations as new forms of effective organization of urban and rural areas connected with each other by long-standing links. The specifics of the modern stage are the development of agglomeration processes in the territories the cores of which are large and medium-sized cities. However, the features of the integration processes in such agglomerations have not been studied fully, which makes this study relevant. The purpose of the paper is to analyze the peculiarities of the development of agglomerations in the regions of the European North of Russia, the cores of which are large cities, and to make the case for a range of activities for managing these processes. Materials and Methods. The object of the research was the emerging monocentric Vologda agglomeration. To study the features, problems and prospects of its formation, an analysis of key trends and patterns of the development of these territories was performed; sociological research was conducted among residents and the heads of municipalities regarding the features, problems and prospects for the formation of integration links. Results. It has been proved that the Vologda agglomeration belongs to the category of monocentric, least developed and emerging ones, but it meets all the criteria for delimitation of agglomerations. The presence of close industrial, cooperative, cultural, recreational and other links of intra-agglomeration territories was revealed. The hypothesis has been confirmed that the strength of agglomeration processes directly depends on the size of the core; large and medium-sized cities do not have such agglomeration potential as million-plus cities. A range of activities for the management of these agglomeration processes has been substantiated. Discussion and Conclusion. Although the agglomeration processes in the Vologda Region are objective, the identified links are still developing. Further research may focus on the development of the strategy and program for the development of the Vologda agglomeration.

Modernization of agriculture, economic development and population increase after the end of the Thirty Years' War caused authorities in many parts of Germany to decree the eradication of so-called pest animals, including the House Sparrow. Farmers were given targets, and had to deliver the heads of sparrows in proportion to the size of their farms or pay fines. At the end of the eighteenth century German ornithologists argued against the eradication of the sparrows. During the mid-nineteenth century, C. L. Gloger, the pioneer of bird protection in Germany, emphasized the value of the House Sparrow in controlling insect plagues. Many decrees were abolished because either they had not been obeyed, or had resulted in people protecting sparrows so that they always had enough for their “deliveries”. Surprisingly, various ornithologists, including Ernst Hartert and the most famous German bird conservationist Freiherr Berlepsch, joined in the war against sparrows at the beginning of the twentieth century, because sparrows were regarded as competitors of more useful bird species. After the Second World War, sparrows were poisoned in large numbers. Persecution of sparrows ended in Germany in the 1970s. The long period of persecution had a significant but not long-lasting impact on House Sparrow populations, and therefore cannot be regarded as a factor in the recent decline of this species in urban and rural areas of western and central Europe.
