This article is devoted to the problem of studying soft skills in young people in regions. For this study, the authors subdivide soft skills into four categories: behavioural group, values-related group, group of needs and motives and emotional group. The empirical research, conducted in 2020 in Chelyabinsk (Russia), involved 371 young people from the Chelyabinsk region aged 17 to 30 years and older. To assess the development level of the identified groups of soft skills, the authors created a questionnaire, applied Schwartz Value Survey and used the Mann-Whitney U test for the quantitative comparison of two groups and the Kruskal-Wallis one-way analysis of variance for the quantitative comparison of three or more groups. The results of empirical research showed that the soft skills of the behavioural group and the group of needs and motives are more developed. Most of the respondents noted that they had developed communicative skills, stable behaviour, the ability for self-development and self-improvement. The authors also note that the development of soft skills increases with age among the respondents older than 30 years old.

The article highlights the results of theoretical and empirical research of personal sanogenity of experiencing crisis conditions by air transport managers. The aim of the research is the empirical study of personal maturity development of air transport managers, their psychological resourcefulness, ability to self-development and scale of sanogenity of personal maturity of air transport managers experiencing unconventional crisis inflicted by COVID-19 pandemic. To assess the level of personal maturity, the Personal Maturity Questionnaire was applied (O.S.Shtepa). Level of actualizing of the personal psychological resources was studied through method of the Psychological Resourcefulness Questionnaire (O.S.Shtepa). To clarify the contents of the need for self-development as the potential of subjectivity, the method of Disposition Characteristics of Personal Self-Development was applied. (S.B.Kuzikova). The outcomes of the empirical research have discovered that air transport managers do not always have sufficient level of personal maturity development which is defined neither by age factor nor by amassed experience. Sanogenity of personal maturity for this social group is determined by their resourcefulness development level and ability to self-development. Successfulness in career development is not equivalent to manager personal maturity development level. Subjective assessment of successfulness and maturity made by managers themselves shows that 71.2% respondents do not reveal their satisfactory personal maturity. However, the majority of them is characterized with sufficient psychological resourcefulness having at the same time poor self-development ability. In the process of psychocorrection the sanogenic potential of personal maturity is actualized through raising self-development ability, reducing tension and traumatization of personality experiencing unconventional crisis.

Responsibility is one of the main characteristics of a mature person. In the 21st century, in the era of increasing infantilism, one of the important areas in modern psychology and pedagogy is the problem of responsibility formation and development in adolescents and young people. There are various hypotheses about the emergence of infantile and irresponsible behavior and their manifestations in childhood and adulthood. The strength of society is the strength of the individuals who make it up, so in modern science it is important to identify the causes of social infantilism and introduce technologies for its prevention and correction. Based on the theoretical analysis, the paper examines the dominant symptoms of the infantilism development (irresponsibility, mental discomfort, loneliness, sexual behavior violation, narcissism and gender chauvinism) and their manifestations in different age periods. The forms of irresponsibility in adolescents and the causes of their occurrence in different age periods are presented in detail. According to the author, the main reasons for infantilism development in adolescent and youth environment are: 1) the lack of collective education and the low influence of teachers, psychologists and educational environment in general on the individual’s development; 2) a pronounced style of pedagogy of freedom, provoking selfishness development; 3) delegation of responsibility for education exclusively to the family in the absence of psychological and pedagogical support for family relations; 4) deformation of the family relations model against the background of falling birth rates, shifting gender roles and family values. For the prevention and correction of infantilism among adolescents and young people, specialists in the sphere of modern education need to conduct systematic diagnostic work with the family and pay close attention to the introduction of practical technologies for the prevention of irresponsible behavior among younger schoolchildren and adolescents. In addition, it is necessary to introduce psychological and pedagogical education of the younger generation on the issues of individual self-development, self-education and self-realization.

The article deals with the influence of deprived conditions of socialization in institutional care institutions on the formation of the locus control and self-attitude of personality. The results of empirical research about the features and correlations between some scales of the studied phenomenon have been presented. It has also been found that the deprived youth both sexes have difficulty in self-absorbed, contradictory self-attitude, negative emotions to himself / herself, and the external type of locus control regardless some positive self-attitudes.In the deprived conditions of parental-child interaction, the emotional and value self-attitude of youth has been characterized as reduced ability to self-reflection, feeling guilty, internal conflict, a tendency to self-incrimination, which forming a dependent position in the development of intimate and reference contacts, narrowing the abilities for self-realization in preparing for independent life. Youth of both sexes with deprived experience are insecure in themselves, their potencies and opportunities. They have some ability to building a line of behavior independently; obeying the attitudes about their inferiority and insignificance in the regulation of life; the lack of interest of their internal world; the low assessment of the value of their own image “I” for himself / herself and for others; the expectation of unfavorable reactions, lack of sympathy, negative self-attitude, self-incrimination, self-analysis and self-criticism.In the conditions without psychological and correction work, the diffuse self- attitude causes a self-rejection as a big hurdle to the adaptation and integration into society and destabilizing effect on the possibility of successful personal self-realization in the future. The above actualizes the problem of socio-psychological support of growing personality in current conditions of a variety of deprivation, which provides necessary opportunities for deprived youth of both sexes to compare their real possibilities with the society requirements, their own behavior with the expectations of other people; and opportunity for self-asserted and self-development, resolving internal conflicts.

Rural England

This article advances research on the practice of youth justice in rural contexts. Drawing on Ingold’s dwelling perspective, and empirical research with youth justice practitioners in rural England, we explore how practitioners develop their practice through their relationships to their rural working environments. We find that through these relationships, practitioners develop themselves as ‘connectors’, aiming to reduce the impact of Fordshire’s remoteness and isolation on young people; as ‘horizon stretchers’, seeking to raise aspirations and broaden imaginations; but often find themselves to be ‘outsiders’ in relation to rural communities. Accordingly, we argue that youth justice work is infused with the lived realities of the contexts in which it is practised and that ongoing debates over the localization of youth justice must take this into account.

The concept of embodiment has increasingly been in the foreground of recent debates within youth ministry and religious learning. Human experience and learning are rooted in flesh-and-blood bodies, which means that the focus of youth ministry should not only be on cognitive processes but also on concrete experiences, acts and rituals. This article aims to clarify the meaning and relevance of embodiment for religious learning in youth ministry. For this purpose, the paper reviews two lines of reflection: first, reflections based on educational learning theory and religious pedagogical theory; second, reflections based on socialization theory. Finally, the article concludes with a discussion on the consequences these two lines of reflections have for current empirical research regarding the religious learning of young people.
