 When a pandemic occurs, it can cost fatal damages to human life. Therefore, it is important to understand the dynamics of a global pandemic in order to find a way of prevention. This paper contains an empirical study regarding the dynamics of the current COVID-19 pandemic. We have formulated a dynamic model of COVID-19 pandemic by subdividing the total population into six different classes namely susceptible, asymptomatic, infected, recovered, quarantined, and vaccinated. The basic reproduction number corresponding to our model has been determined. Moreover, sensitivity analysis has been conducted to find the most important parameters which can be crucial in preventing the outbreak. Numerical simulations have been made to visualize the movement of population in different classes and specifically to see the effect of quarantine and vaccination processes. The findings from our model reveal that both vaccination and quarantine are important to curtail the spread of COVID-19 pandemic. The present study can be effective in public health sectors for minimizing the burden of any pandemic.

The Threatened Identity: An Empirical Study This study explores the phenomenon of threatened identity that occurs because of significant, often abrupt changes in human life. As a result of a difficult experience, decision, change of cultural environment, loss of someone or something very important, an individual may feel he/she is someone different than before. Thus, establishing the continuity of one's personal identity may be a problem. In a report on this type of situation Glynis Breakwell (1986) proposes the term "threatened identity." She places it in the context of her structural model of identity. The present study is aimed at investigating possible images of threatened identity and characterizing them from the point of view of narrative sequences, the affective level and the ultimate - positive or negative - consequences of the individual's functioning. With regard to these aspects, five types of threatened identity have been distinguished from the empirical evidence: (1) the constructive re-evaluation, (2) the key experience, (3) the stable narrative sequence, (4) the seeking of power and autonomy and (5) the loss of part of oneself.

This article considers solidarity as a dynamic interrelationship between intersubjective and structural processes that underpin webs of meaning in dangerous work conditions. Conceptual links are developed to integrate previously unconnected aspects of work and relationships between danger, volunteering, edgework and solidarity – revealing how a distinct form of solidarity is engendered and experienced. Drawing on 43 in-depth interviews with Royal National Lifeboat Institution (RNLI) workers operating in the UK and Ireland (12 paid and 31 volunteers), the analysis illuminates experiences of solidarity in a dangerous working environment. Findings reveal that solidarity is constituted by the interplay between volunteering work practices, shared experiences of rescues, and the meaningful purpose of safeguarding human life. This empirical study provides a basis for theorising distinct conditions relating to solidarity as differentiated from previous work on the concept. Further implications are discussed for contexts where various forms of danger and solidarity might be experienced.

The article presents a theoretical analysis of scientific developments of the problem of psychological security of the individual, carried out by modern domestic scientists. In particular, the review of scientific articles and monographs, as well as candidate and doctoral theses defended in the XXI century in the psychological sciences is given. The article reflects the results of the analysis of the materials of international and all-Russian scientific and practical conferences over the past ten years, which discussed the problem of psychological security of the individual in various spheres of human life. The main approaches to the study of this phenomenon are highlighted and the directions of its further research are shown. Among the promising areas of research of psychological security of the individual, intercultural interaction is highlighted and the relevance of studying its socio-psychological features is justified. The model of an empirical study of the socio-psychological features of the psychological security of the individual in intercultural interaction is proposed.

AbstractThe extended reliance on media can be seen as one indicator of mediatization. But even though we can assume that the pervasive character of digital media essentially changes the way people experience everyday life, we cannot take these experiences for granted. There has recently been a formulation of three tasks for mediatization research; historicity, specificity and measurability, needed to empirically verify mediatization processes across time and space. In this article, we present a tool designed to handle these tasks, by measuring the extent to which people experience that media reach into the deeper layers of daily human life. The tool was tested in an empirical study conducted in Sweden in 2017. The results show that perceived media reliance is played out in relation to three types of basic desires: (1) (re)productive desires, (2) recognition desires, and (3) civic desires, and is socially structured and structuring. We argue this tool, in diachronic analyses, can measure one important aspect of mediatization.

The Impact

The article focuses on changes in people's mental state during the period of death of a loved one, taking into account age and gender. To this end, the analysis of recent research and publications on the mental state of a person experiencing grief due to the loss of a loved one, analyzed and highlighted the content of various changes in human life due to such loss, formed a research hypothesis and developed an author's questionnaire to verify its validity. The questionnaire was developed based on the assumption that respondents who have experienced the sudden loss of a loved one will be divided into two groups: the first - those experiencing complicated grief, and the second - those who have experienced loss in the normal mode. In this case, the type of grief is to some extent determined by time and depth of experience, and these criteria are not crucial in the empirical study of the complicated experience of a sudden loss of a loved one. Thus, in the study of the psychological characteristics of the experience of a sudden loss of a loved one, the criteria of complicated and average experience were chosen. The results of the empirical study presented in the article indicate the presence of insignificant differences in the experience of a sudden loss of a relative by respondents of different age groups and the dominance of complicated experience in female respondents. It is also emphasized that the outlined issues require a comprehensive and multilevel study of the impact of sudden death on the individual's psychological state, as this issue is complex in its structure. It is concluded that the criteria selected for the study are only part of the system and do not allow to form a holistic picture and indicate the feasibility of distinguishing respondents by the role of the deceased in the respondent's life and direct relationship to it.

The article off ers the results of a comparative empirical study aimed at identifying image of the fate of the secular and Muslim youth. Studying a phenomenon that cannot be proven experimentally by means of measuring its quantity and frequency, we had to rely on the experience, comprehension, feelings and emotions of a cognizant, who knows and understands the world. As the empirical base of the research came 153 students from diff erent educational institutions of Kazan. 79 of them profess Islam and 74 of them are not adherents of any religion. The researcher used a written survey. The results of the study allowed to formulate the image of the fate existing in religious and non-religious worldview and in such a way to comprehend its nature, structure and role in human life. Thus, the author proposed a model of fate. At the same time, the results of the analysis created new puzzles for the researchers, demanding from the psychologists rethinking of the very problem of the subject, both in content-structural and dynamic aspects.
