The paper considers the findings of the study of discriminatory attitudes, their characteristics and factors. The author employs empirical data showing the multi-vector nature of discriminatory attitudes, their correlations, and situational tension. The paper reveals a four-component structure of discrimination signs that differ from the ones prevailing in Europe. The structure suggests a special group of signs (on the basis of social status). The author establishes a multilevel determination of discriminatory attitudes by personality traits and social ideology. The paper also includes the conclusion on the promising areas of study of discriminatory attitudes.

Jellinek describes periodic or Epsilon alcoholism as the ‘least known species of alcoholism’ (1). Åmark (2), comparing them to the general population, found periodic drinkers to be older at time of study, to show increased heritability in offspring and to have a higher incidence of cycloid and cyclothymic personalities. His determination of cyclothymic personality traits reinforces the hypothesis of Dobnigg et al. (3) of a correlative between periodic drinking patterns and affective symptoms. This paper examines the usefulness of the diagnosis of ‘bender’ alcoholism.

Target Price

The methodology and applicability of a method to determine the market price of non-durable consumer products Proper pricing should be done in three phases. Firstly, the determination of the market price, namely that price which the consumers are prepared to pay for the amount of need-satisfaction they perceive from using the product. Secondly, the determination of the target price, namely that price which will give a satisfactory rate of return on investment for the firm. Thirdly, the determination of the final price, by achieving a match between the market price and the target price. The present methods to determine the market price were analysed and with this information a new method to determine the market price of non-durable consumer products was developed. The objectives of this article are to report on an empirical investigation undertaken to test the feasibility of this method and the seven steps to follow in using the method; and to outline the results obtained and conclusions which may be reached; the implications and use of the empirical data; and the method to determine the market price.

Letter Identification

The determination of the visual features mediating letter identification has a long-standing history in cognitive science. Researchers have proposed many sets of letter features as important for letter identification, but no such sets have yet been derived directly from empirical data. In the study reported here, we applied the Bubbles technique to reveal directly which areas at five different spatial scales are efficient for the identification of lowercase and uppercase Arial letters. We provide the first empirical evidence that line terminations are the most important features for letter identification. We propose that these small features, represented at several spatial scales, help readers to discriminate among visually similar letters.

State And Trait Anxiety

The aim of this research was to identify levels of participation in recreational activities in children living under the protection of children's shelter in Karaman province. Then, determine their decision making, trait anxiety and burnout levels in terms of psychosocial variables. In this qualitative study, research group consisted of 31 children between the ages of 7-18 who are protected in 6 children’s shelter which are under the control of the ministry of Family and Social Policies, coordination center of children’s shelter in Karaman. In the direction of expert guidance, the sampling group consisted of a house among 6 children’s shelter where children reside between the ages of 15-17 with 5 children capacity. Besides personal information questions, qualitative questions formed with the guidance of decision making scale, spielberger state and trait anxiety scale and maslach burnout inventory-student survey were asked the sampling group. Four themes which were recreation, decision making, trait anxiety and burnout were emerged after thematic content coding. Findings indicate that participants need more social and sportive recreational activities. Participants have positive mood, happy and their burnout level is low. They take their own decisions even they consult around people caring them. They also do not regret after their decisions. Despite they have no concern about their occupation in future due to their confidence themselves. They have nervouspsyschological structure because of their possible conflicts with their parents. Hence, it is possible that their anxiety and burnout levels can reach high level.Extended English summary is in the end of Full Text PDF (TURKISH) file. ÖzetBu çalışmanın amacı, Karaman ili bünyesindeki çocuk evlerinde korunma altına alınan çocukların rekreatif faaliyetlere katılım düzeylerinin belirlenerek bu bağlamda, yaşamlarının psiko-sosyal açıdan incelenip, elde edilen verilere göre karar verme, sürekli kaygı ile tükenmişlik düzeylerini belirlemektir. Yapılan nitel araştırmada, çalışma grubunu, Karaman Aile ve Sosyal Politikalar İl Müdürlüğü, Çocuk Evleri Koordinasyon Merkezi bünyesinde oluşturulan 6 çocuk evinde koruma altına alınan 7-18 yaş aralığında toplam 31 çocuk oluşturmakta olup, örneklemini ise uzman yönlendirmesi doğrultusunda adı geçen 6 çocuk evi içerisinden 15-17 yaş aralığında çocukların ikamet ettiği ve toplamda 5 çocuk kapasiteli bir çocuk evi meydana getirmektedir. Çalışmada, kişisel bilgi formu, Melbourne Karar Verme Ölçeği, Spielberger Durumluk ve Sürekli Kaygı Ölçeği ve Maslach Tükenmişlik Envanteri-Öğrenci Formundan faydalanılarak hazırlanan sorular katılımcılara sözel olarak yöneltilmiştir. Yapılan tematik içerik kodlaması sonrasında rekreasyon, karar verme, sürekli kaygı ve tükenmişlik olarak dört tema oluşturulmuştur.Yapılan araştırma neticesinde; katılımcıların daha fazla sosyal ve sportif rekreatif aktivitelere ihtiyaç duydukları; kararlarını çevresinde önem verdiği kişilere danışmasına rağmen kendileri aldıkları ve bunun sonucunda pişman olmadıkları; genel anlamdatükenmişlik düzeylerinin düşük, mutlu ve olumlu bir ruh hali içerisinde oldukları ve kendilerine olan güvenleri doğrultusunda gelecekte edinecekleri meslek konusunda bir endişe taşımamalarına rağmen, aileleri ile ilgili yaşanılacak olumsuzluklar neticesinde, sinirli bir yapıya bürünüp bu hususla ilgili kaygı ve tükenmişlik düzeylerinin yüksek boyutlara ulaşabilme ihtimalinin olduğu tespit edilmiştir.

A FEW REFLEXIONS ON THE FRIENDSHIP IN BECKET OR THE HONOUR OF GOD BY JEAN ANOUILHThe above work is a conjecture on a new interpretation of the complicated friendship between Henry II, King of England, and Thomas Becket, saint martyr, as characters in Jean Anouilh’s play Becket or The Honour of God. They have little in common, and it seems that everything divides them. An analysis of this opus is used as a starting point to a general reflection on the influence of external factors such as social status and political framework, as well as internal factors such as personality traits, value system, and propriety on particular stages of friendship. The analysis is also an attempt at defining the concept of friendship presented in the play.

The article presents the main results of an empirical study of the factors of personal acquisition of social status in a small group in the field of leisure. Reflecting the position of the individual in the system of society, the social status of the individual is determined by the set of rights and responsibilities of the individual in the context of social ties, groups and systems. Thus, social status is a component that simultaneously affects the individual, and which, in some way, depends on the individual. Since social status is a complex and multicomponent phenomenon, it was possible to determine its socio-psychological component structure. Social status was studied through sociometric positions of respondents. The entire sample was divided into 4 groups depending on the number of elections: neglected, rejected, accepted, stars. It was found that the factors of social status in the permissive context are the acceptance of others, the psychological climate of the team, focus on the present, social approval, lack of normative behavior (conformity). Factors of social status in the working context are personal characteristics and features of group dynamics, so it should be taken into account in combination with individual psychological characteristics. Factors of each social status for separate social groups were also singled out. The social status of the individual is an important component of the social life of every person. Its main function is to organize, design, regulate and conduct groups and their members. In the leisure environment for a group of technical professional orientation, the factors of acquiring social status for certain groups are the following characteristics: neglected – group cohesion, unaccepted – socio-psychological adaptation, accepted – the tendency to affiliation, stars – acceptance of others; for the group of humanitarian professional orientation: neglected – acceptance of others, unaccepted – group cohesion, accepted – the psychological climate of the group, the stars – emotional comfort.

Transportation Distance

In Latvia the transportation of energy chips loads is carried out almost entirely by trucks. Due to the lack of hard empirical data on the compaction of energy chips loads transported by road, the currently used methodologies for the assessment of the volume of energy chips loads produce only rough estimates. In order to address this problem and fill the gap, this research paper offers: - the methodology for the determination of the coefficients for the compaction of energy chips loads depending on their transportation distance by trucks; - the values of the coefficients for the compaction of energy chips loads for different transportation distances and different kinds of trucks; - the identification and analysis of the factors that influenced the values of energy chips loads compaction coefficients.
