This article represents an analysis of professional identity of the psychologist in conjunction with with the features of their communicative and gender ‘Me’. The work of the psychologist is seen in different systems: person-person, person-group, person-society. Difficulties associated with the need to build quality person-centred communication, but at the same time maintain the boundaries of professional care, are described. In this case, communication competence can be considered not only as criterion of rendering efficient help to a client, but as a condition for forming professional identity of the psychologist. This paper presents the results of an empirical study of the identity of psychologists using the techniques of T. Kun, T. McPartland ‘Who am I’ (in versions by T.V. Rumyantseva, I. S. Kletsina, N.L. Ivanova). The processing of the results included quantitative and qualitative analysis. The analysis of the data revealed the components of identity that may hinder the formation of a stable professional identity. It has been shown that psychologists are primarily oriented towards constructing identity through personal dispositions; the communicative component of their identity is linked to their professional image. A poorly expressed necessity in communication, or domination of negative characteristics in describing one’s own communication skills is reflected in the psychologist’s lack of professional identity. When a professional identity is formed, the aspects of gender identity become blurred and professional characteristics that are the professionally important qualities of psychologists begin to dominate in personality descriptions. The connection between the formation of the psychologist’s professional identity and the peculiarities of their communicative and gendered ‘Me’ is shown. The individual’s acceptance of professionally important qualities (as a positively formed communicative identity component and gender-neutral characteristics) allows the psychologist to build a sustainable positive professional identity.

AbstractThis is a rebuttal to Fiona Probyn-Rapsey’s criticisms of the original furry research conducted in 2006 and published in 2008. Her focus on gender identity disorder misses the main point of the study, which was that it was the first empirical study to collect data scientifically and report findings on the furry fandom, an often misrepresented subculture.

The article reviews the results of an empirical study of the coping behavior of women with different sexual orientations and gender identity. It is established that most women have an androgynous gender identity. Significant differences in the coping behavior of women with different sexual orientations and gender identity were revealed. The coping behavior of women of different sexual orientations with masculine and feminine gender identity differs more strongly than the coping behavior of women of different sexual orientation with androgynous gender identity. The data obtained can be used to form constructive strategies for coping behavior in women with different sexual orientations and gender identity.

The aim of this empirical study was to investigate the relevance of social climate in the classroom for improving creativity in secondary school students. We hypothesized the existence of a relationship between the Professional Identity of the teachers (or Professional Self), their social representations of pupils, their affective investment in the future (in terms of Possible Selves) and the relevance they attribute to Creativity. The results seem to confirm our hypothesis.

The Relationship

The article describes gender peculiarities of making early career choices. The results of the empirical study of the peculiarities of the relationship between the gender identity and professional focus are presented. It is revealed that the choice of profession relates to gender identity. Differences were found between the image of the self-actualized woman and the image of the self- actualized circles. These differences relate to the intellectual sphere, social activity, ideas about ways. Thus, respondents with masculine identity tend to choose activities related to sign system and technology. Respondents with feminine and ambivalent identities most often choose activities related to people and nature.

The author represents a qualitative and meaningful analysis of the results of an empirical study of the professional orientation of university students with disabilities. The obtained results indicate the corresponding statistically-significant differences in the subject area, professional intentions and the status of the professional identity among university students with disabilities and students with a conditional norm of health. The analysis of the results of the empirical study demonstrates the immaturity of the professional awareness of students with disabilities, which consists in the absence of taking into account the existing limitations in their future profession, a low level of awareness of its essence and the opportunities it provides, as well as the problematic nature of the status of their professional identity. This allows us to assert that the relevant vector of educational and professional activity of students with disabilities in higher education should be the directed development of an adequate professional orientation and its components, in addition, taking into account the nature of health limitations.

Communicative Activity

The article features a brief overview of theoretical and empirical studies in communication psychology and sociability of men and women, boys and girls. Russian and foreign studies are summarized to point out that girls and women place greater emphasis on communication and interpersonal relations than do boys and men. Moreover, female communication is more emotional. The article presents the results of the author's own empirical study of male and female communicative activity. Communicative activity is viewed as a complex psychological phenomenon, a degree of the subject's willingness to interact. Communicative activity was studied with the test proposed by the Russian psychologist, Krupnov, and designed to detect the following components of communicative activity: dynamic (natural), emotional, motivational, cognitive, regulatory, productive, and two sorts of communication difficulties (operational and personal). Gender differences in communicative activity are shown on a sample of 480 participants aged 18-40 (240 men and 240 women). The article then describes communicative styles of adolescents (130 boys and 130 girls, aged 19-24). Various communicative styles are featured, including “energetic, businesslike,” “conformal, emotional,” “diplomatic, externally oriented” for boys and “energetic, sociable,” “emotional, difficult,” and “complaisant, expressive” for girls. Every person's individuality and gender identity are shown to impact their communicative style.

The World

Wikipedia is an important information source for much of the world. One well-established problem is that editors of Wikipedia are overwhelmingly men. This gender gap in participation has resulted in a concern that the content suffers biases as a result of the bias in participation. This problem is hard to study, because the relationships between participation, gender identity, and content have not been established. Prior studies, mostly with children, have shown some differences in topical preferences based on sex. However, this issue has not been studied with adults and has not been considered from more than a binary stance. In this study, we work to understand how gender identity relates to topical preferences. Through an empirical study, we ask participants to declare a gender identity and then present them with pairs of topical article content from Wikipedia. Through thousands of participants and tens of thousands of paired content trials, we uncover relationships between self-declared gender identity and topical preferences. Further, by focusing on topics that have a statistically significant bias, we leverage two of Wikipedia's category systems to illustrate relative categorical differences that are similar to categorical differences described in prior work. The discussion focuses on the subtly of these differences, potential future research, and the implications for interventions based on topical content. Further, the results help us reflect on relationships that might explain the persistent and worsening gender gap in participation.

There has been a significant upsurge of research regarding gender and its connection to teacher professional identity. In this paper, we adopt a decolonial stance to document how the queer identities and pedagogies of two teachers of English resist colonial notions of being and doing within the English Language Teaching (elt) setting. This study regards gender identity as a political mechanism that has been structured in terms of relations of domination. In addition, it explores these structures by employing the coloniality of being as the axe to analyse gender categories in the elt field. To do this, we used a narrative approach to voice personal constructions of gender and gendering discourses about queer identities and pedagogies. Findings suggest that queer teachers of English construct and negotiate their identities in their professional settings and their own performativities in the classroom shape their own epistemologies and teaching practices.
