<p><em>In addition to the well-known classification of long-term and short-term memory, we are also interested in distinguishing episodic, semantic and procedural memory in the areas of linguistic narrative and multimedial semantic deconstruction in postmodernism. We compare the liveliness of memorization in literary tradition and literature art with postmodernist divisions and reverberations of traditional memorizations through human multitasking and performative multimedia art, as well as formulate the existence of creative, intuitive and superhuman paradigms.</em></p><em>Since the memory can be physical, psychological or spiritual, according to neurobiologist Dr. J. Bauer (Das Gedächtnis des Körpers, 2004), the greatest importance for memorizing has the social role of collaboration, and consequently the personal transformation and remodelling of genomic architecture, yet the media theorist Mark Hansen thinks technology brings different solutions of framing function (Hansen, 2000). We believe that postmodern deconstruction does not necessarily damage memory, especially in the field of human multitasking that utilizes multimedia performative art by means of anthropologization of technology, thereby enhancing artistic and affective pre&amp;post-linguistic experience while unifying technology and humans through intuitive empathy in society.</em>

Abstract There is general agreement among media and communication scholars that a monumental shift is occurring in the media and communication habits of young people. In the present paper, this shift is discussed within the framework of a long-term study of six samples of Icelandic youths, covering a period of 35 years. A persistent decline in use of the “old” media, such as books, newspapers and radio is demonstrated, while the social role of television is shown to be undergoing a transformation comparable to what happened to book reading centuries earlier. All this is discussed in the light of the onslaught of new technologies and new media of communication.

Movements and parties have given rise to two largely separates specialties in the social sciences. This Element is an effort to link the two literatures, using evidence from American political development. It identifies five relational mechanisms governing movement/party relations: two of them short term, two intermediate term, and one long-term. It closes with a reflection on the role of movement/party relations in democratization and for democratic resilience.

The article is a study of the features of the individual’s communicative behavior, when implementing different social roles. By analyzing the concept of the social role and status, author puts forward the classification of the most frequent social roles represented by an individual in formal and informal communication situations (that of a father, lecturer, friend, colleague, employer, employee, consultant). The work is based on the number of studied and investigated dialogical fragments, where one character appears in different social roles and uses various language means. Having considered typical communicative situations, the author also singles out linguistic and extra-linguistic means which mark the changes of speaker’s social roles, namely: elevated, sarcastic, polite, sad, ironic, joyful, neutral, strict, humorous, angry, contemptuous, intrusive, friendly, confident and other tones as well as smile, frown and raised eyebrows, laugh, direct eye contact, pointing finger, pointing the hand etc. At the next stage of the analysis the author reveals the language means that mark the changes of the speaker's social roles as well as outlines the difficulties, connected with their translation into Ukrainian. Translation of the dialogical fragments was studied in order to find out types of rendition of the means that indicate realization of different social roles by the speaker. Non-verbal communication was also researched, aiming to find out correlation between the social role of the speaker and the means, used by the speaker, according to his social role. As a result, the paper presents the analysis of such means of translation as transliteration, transcription, antonymous, descriptive, and contextual tracing, literal types of translation as well as their dependence on the social role of the speaker. So the components of intercourse let communicative behavior of the individual to be comprehensively considered. Thereby, the results of the study, their representation in per cents, as well as examples of the communicative situations and their analysis, are represented in the following article.

Based on a review of the literature on reading, including the details of its information processing aspects and the role of the sensory register, short-term memory, and long-term memory, it is concluded that both visual and tactile reading involve the same basic processes. Taking into account what is known about visual reading and the results of recent experiments on the sense of touch, it is suggested that certain simplifications in the braille code and changes in the mode of presentation (dynamic-rhythmic rather than spatial) would considerably improve the efficiency of braille reading.

This article considers particular aspects of criminological personal traits of an offender. The author draws attention to the fact that in most countries of the world, including Ukraine, there is an exacerbation of the problem of domestic violence due to the COVID-19 pandemic, quarantine and isolation. Therefore, analysis of some particular aspects of the criminological personality traits of an offender is an urgent issue. In this article, the typical personal features of offenders were identified. The author classified people committing domestic violence by gender, age and educational level. The study identified negative traits of character that are common to the individuals committing domestic violence. The research of criminal law features that characterize the personality of an offender showed that the offender commits most of all illegal acts from this category individually. At the same time, most of the people who commit domestic violence have previous criminal experience and a criminal record. The analysis of socio-psychological characteristics of offenders revealed that latter tend to act in a socially dangerous way. It should be noted, that unfriendly relations become the most frequent motives for domestic violence. The analysis of the social role of people committing domestic violence allowed concluding that the latter tend to separate themselves from positively oriented social groups. They tend to perform negative social roles and functions, causing violations or deliberate disregard for legal norms, labour, family and other responsibilities. In the article, there is a classification of the different types of the offender’s personality by moral and psychological traits of the person. The findings of the research provide a typical criminological portrait of a person who commits domestic violence and outline the prospects for further research of this issue.

В статье рассматриваются юридические факты-состояния, порождающие, изменяющие или прекращающие уголовно-исполнительные правоотношения. Автор на основе анализа дискуссии ученых-юристов, посвященной определению места событий в системе юридических фактов, представил собственную точку зрения, касающуюся роли юридических фактов-состояний в уголовно-исполнительном праве. В работе аргументируется, что состояние следует отнести к одному из видов фактов-событий. Представлена классификация юридических фактов-событий, содержащихся в уголовно-исполнительном праве. Предлагается рассматриваемые правовые явления классифицировать по следующим основаниям: по происхождению (абсолютные (болезнь осужденного/родственников) и относительные (беременность, опьянение, родство); по времени существования (краткосрочные, длительные, постоянные); в зависимости от способности порождать правоотношения (состояния, влекущие стопроцентное возникновение юридических последствий и факты, порождающие возникновение юридических последствий, но при условии участия третьих лиц). The article deals with legal facts-states generating, changing or terminating criminal executive relations. The author, based on an analysis of the discussion of legal scholars devoted to determining the location of events in the system of legal facts, presented his own point of view regarding the role of legal facts-states in the criminal-executive law. The paper argues that the state should be attributed to one of the types of fact-events. The article presents the classification of legal facts-events contained in the criminal-executive law. It is proposed to classify the considered legal phenomena for the following reasons: by origin (absolute (illness of the convict / relatives) and relative (pregnancy, intoxication, kinship); by time of existence (short-term, long-term, permanent); depending on the ability to generate legal relations (conditions entailing 100 % of the occurrence of legal consequences and facts giving rise to the occurrence of legal consequences, but subject to the participation of third parties.

Some form of verbal report — that is, a research participant's concurrent or retrospective verbal account of thought processes during problem-solving activities — has been used throughout this century as the data base from which psychologists have developed theories of human mentation. Newell and Simon (1972) and Ericsson and Simon (1980, 1993) have provided extensive justification for use of one such method, protocol analysis, to investigate cognition from an information processing (IP) perspective. They have characterized protocol analysis as a methodology capable of providing evidence of the cognitive processes used when people attend to information stored in short term memory (STM) in order to solve problems. Cultural-historical activity theory (CHAT), with its concern for the mediation of human development by culturally- and historically-grounded signs and tools based on the work of Vygotsky (1987), Leont'ev (1981), and others, suggests a different view of protocol analysis. In this chapter I outline a CHAT perspective that accounts for protocol analysis along three key dimensions: (a) the relationship between thinking and speech from a representational standpoint; (b) the social role of speech in research methodology; and (c) the influence of speech on thinking during data collection. The purpose of this discussion is to illustrate how use of verbal reports can be viewed through a CHAT lens and to identify alternative assumptions necessary to use it from a CHAT perspective.

Under various circumstances and in different species the outward expression of learning varies considerably, and this has led to the classification of different categories of learning. Just as there is no generally agreed on definition of learning, there is no one system of classification. Types of learning commonly recognized are: Habituation, sensitization, classical conditioning, operant conditioning, trial and error, taste aversion, latent learning, cultural learning, imprinting, insight learning, learning-set learning and instinct. The term memory must include at least two separate processes. It must involve, on the one hand, that of learning something and on the other, at some later date, recalling that thing. What lies between the learning and (he remembering must be some permanent record — a memory trace — within the brain. Memory exists in at least two forms: memory for very recent events (short-term) which is relatively labile and easily disruptable; and long-term memory, which is much more stable. Not everything that gets into short-term memory becomes fixed in the long-term store; a filtering mechanism selects things that might be important and discards the rest.
