The article attempts to analyze theoretical and methodological approaches to the study of ethno-national ideology in the conditions of modern Russia. The problem is considered on the basis of an integrative scientific approach to the methodology of socio-philosophical research. Taking as a basis the conceptual theoretical provisions of the "psychology of peoples" W. Wundt, the author analyzes the methodology of individualism, revealing the contradictions of individualistic psychologism. This made it possible to study the phenomenon of ethno-national ideology from the standpoint of various theoretical and methodological approaches: D. Homans' theory of social interaction, the provisions of E. Durkheim's classical positivism, G.V.F. Hegel. In conclusion, the author comes to the conclusion that it is necessary to determine the priority directions in the development of the concept and integral program of ethno-national ideology in Russia.

The paper considers modern approaches to the study of social dynamics, which are conceptually reflected in theories of social quality of life, linking economic and statistical data with indicators reflecting integrative relationships and forms of social interaction. An attempt to assess the effectiveness of these theoretical and methodological approaches is carried out in the context of analyzing such a problem in Russian society as the increased level of emigration in recent years.

This chapter sets the scene of the book by providing key definitions of the concepts that underlie social interaction, and highlighting the importance of a lifespan approach. Traditionally, research on social interaction has focused on a very narrow age-range between 2 and 7 years old, when these skills are known to develop in typically developing children. However, over the last few years new paradigms and methodological advances have facilitated an exciting new body of research that has examined social interaction in infancy and beyond childhood. This chapter presents key theoretical models of social interaction, and considers the predictions that each makes about development across the lifespan, noting a particular role for cognitive mechanisms. It also introduces a range of methodological approaches that have been used to study social interaction, emphasizing the challenges that researchers face in applying these methods across the lifespan, and the opportunities that lie ahead thanks to new paradigms and technologies that enable more implicit and ecologically-valid research on this topic.

AbstractFor user-centred design of ICT solutions in the AAL field, an approach combining real household living lab and SmartHome lab seems promising. Based on our experiences within the AAL project FoSIBLE, we propose a mixed-method approach to develop and evaluate a Social TV system from both a bird′s eye and worm′s-eye perspective in regards to user acceptance and rejection. We provide insights into the methodological strategies and analyse the strengths and weaknesses of our proposition to demonstrate how the different methodological approaches can augment each other in the different phases of AAL projects.

The aim of this paper is to map out the research around the concept of interactivity, as well as to point out the dominant streams and underresearched areas. It is based upon the content analysis of methods employed in articles published in five topranking communication journals over five year period (200610). The review of methods applied in research of interactivity is based upon distinction between social interactivity, textual interactivity and technical interactivity. This classification is further developed by adding the category of levels of interactivity (low, medium and high) which allows further classification of different mediated practices. This leads to specification of nine theoretical subsets of interactivity as the main categories of the analysis of research articles. Within this matrix we have situated diverse methods that respond to conceptually different types and levels of audience/users interactivity. The analysis shows that scholarly focus lies within the low textual and the high social interactive practices, whereas the high technical and high textual interactivity are underresearched areas. Investigations into the audience/users relations with texts are mainly orientated towards content analyses and surveys. High social interaction research is reviving the application of ethnographic methods, while the possibilities of technical interactivity are embraced not as an object but as a tool for research. El objetivo de este artículo es trazar las investigaciones alrededor del concepto de la interactividad e indicar las tendencias dominantes y las áreas poco investigadas. Está basado en el análisis del contenido de los métodos utilizados en los artículos publicados en las cinco revistas de comunicación más importantes por ranking durante un periodo de cinco años (200610). La evaluación de los métodos aplicados en la investigación de la interactividad se basa en la diferencia entre la interactividad social, la interactividad textual y la interactividad técnica. Se desarrolla esta clasificación de forma más profunda al añadir la categoría de los niveles de interactividad (baja, media y alta), lo cual permite una clasificación adicional de las varias prácticas medidas. Todo esto conduce a una especificación de nueve subconjuntos teoréticos de la interactividad como las categorías principales del análisis de los artículos evaluados para esta investigación. Dentro de esta matriz, hemos situado varios métodos que responden a unos tipos y niveles de interactividad del público/usuarios que son conceptualmente diferentes. El análisis demuestra que los investigadores se centran en las prácticas de la interactividad textual baja y la interactividad social alta, mientras que la interactividad técnica alta y la interactividad textual alta suscitan poco interés entre los académicos. Las investigaciones de las relaciones del público/usuario con los textos se orientan principalmente hacia el análisis del contenido y las encuestas. La investigación de la interacción social alta está reactivando la aplicación de los métodos etnográficos, mientras que las posibilidades de la interactividad técnica se aceptan no como un objeto de estudio sino como una herramienta de investigación.

The purpose of the research. The purpose of the article is to elaborate scientific and methodological approaches to providing economic security of an enterprise as a key component of its management. Methodology. The study applies general scientific theoretical methods – generalization, explanation, grouping – to analyzing economists’ and practitioners’ ideas about the object of the research and formulating conclusions of content analysis of primary sources, analysis and synthesis – to substantiating a new scientific approach to ensuring economic security of an enterprise. Results. Specific features of economic security of an enterprise as an object of management are taken into account as those revealing themselves in nonlinearity of links between its current level and the implemented set of managerial actions. To assess the results of ensuring economic security, its dynamic parameters have been substantiated including those of operational excellence as an internal prerequisite of its provision and market sustainability as an external form of manifesting internal systemic characteristics of a business. A methodological approach to assessing results of ensuring economic security of an enterprise is suggested on the basis on assessing the degree of correspondence of the above parameters (provision planes) to enterprises’ internal standards, industry averages and the best current business practices. Implementation of the suggested methodological approach to assessing the results of ensuring economic security in retrospective enables empirical confirmation of the fact that internal operating prerequisites and market positions of mining and metallurgical enterprises are determined by used/unused opportunities of the business environment for a certain period of time. Styles of ensuring the economic security of the enterprises under study are identified. It is revealed that the regressive style, which manifests itself in overestimation of internal standards with a dangerous degree of compliance with the best business practices is prevailing. It has been substantiated that its use puts the economic security level in a critically dangerous dependency on the market situation and, taking into account current trends in the economic and political environment, makes it possible to predict a decline in the economic security level of the enterprises under study in the near future: the global economic decline, increased protectionism on the markets, increased tax burden, increased environmental tax rates, etc. Practical importance. A scientific approach to ensuring economic security of an enterprise has been substantiated which integrates the strategic and operational levels of management and ensures minimization of the degree of inconsistency of the internal system characteristics of the business with stakeholders’ e requirements and trends in the external environment based on the use of opportunities for increasing value added streams in the context of permanent dynamic changes in the functioning of the enterprise. Further research is devoted to development of methodological approaches to taking into account the third plane of ensuring economic security – “stakeholder satisfaction”.

AbstractReflections about the historical roots of our current scientific endeavors are useful from time to time as they help us to acknowledge the ideas, concepts, methodological approaches, and idiosyncrasies of the researchers that paved the ground we stand on right now. The 50-year anniversary of Apidologie offers the opportunity to refresh our knowledge about the history of bee research. I take the liberty of putting the founding year of Apidologie in the middle of the period I cover here. The nascent period of behavioral biology around the late 19th to the early twentieth century was intimately connected with a loss of concepts related to the mental functions of the brain, concepts that were rooted in Darwin’s theory of gradualism in the living world including cognition in animals. This loss was celebrated both in ethology and behaviorism as the gateway to scientific impartiality. Using this apparently strict scientific approach, impressive discoveries were made by observing and strictly quantifying the behavior of bees. The first forays into the brain, however, uncovered a richness of structure and function that reached far beyond stereotypical input/output connections and opened the way to compensating the conceptual restrictions imposed on us by traditional ethology. Honeybee research provides us with a particularly exciting story in this context. The cognitive turn in behavioral biology is intimately connected to the increasing knowledge of how the brain works, also in honeybee research. What has been achieved so far is just the beginning, but it gives us a glimpse of a promising future. Teamwork between neuroscientists and behavioral biologists is needed to elucidate brain functions such as the expectation of future outcomes and intentionality as an entry to animal intelligence reflecting the flexibility and adaptability in behavior also seen in honeybees.

The purpose of this study is to find out which gives better mathematics learning achievement in the TPS type cooperative learning model with a scientific approach, students with high, medium, or low levels of social interaction on the subject matter of function. This research is a quasi-experimental study. The population is all eighth grade students of state junior high schools in Ngawi Regency 2016/2017 school year. The sampling technique uses stratified cluster random sampling, so that students are obtained at SMP Ngrambe 3, SMP Negeri 2 Paron, and SMP Negeri 2 Widodaren as a research sample of 90 students. Data collection instruments used achievement tests and student social interaction questionnaires. Hypothesis testing using analysis of variance (anava) one cell path is not the same. The conclusion of this study is the type of TPS cooperative learning model with a scientific approach to students with high levels of social interaction provides better mathematics learning achievement compared to students with moderate and low levels of social interaction, and mathematics learning achievement of students with moderate levels of social interaction as well compared to students with levels of interaction socially low in providing mathematics learning achievement on the subject matter of function.

In the epoch of exponential development of civilization, social interaction becomes more and more dense and the range of representations and regulations of life is expending, and, accordingly, the probability of conflict in society increases. The research of a problem of social interaction is insufficiently provided and remains urgent in the scientific world. The author (together with R.G. Khalitov and I.M. Yusupov) developed the concept of psychosocial dissonance (notion and model) which was the base for a research of social interaction, and the probabilistic model of psychosocial dissonance became a basis for mathematical (formulas and numbers) determination and modeling of social interaction. Post-nonclassical science, within which the author conducts the researches, studies complex self-developing systems, natural complexes that include the human being, with the expansion of the scope of concepts of scientific methodology and scientific approach to the human being. To understand the facilitation of social interaction in the presence of an observer, the "anthropological principle" is used, which establishes a link between the existence of a person (as an observer) and the physical parameters of the world. On the basis of theoretical researches the concept is introduced and the effect of facilitation of social interaction is shown. The description of the mechanism of facilitation of social interaction on the basis of the model of psychosocial dissonance and level model of psychosocial phenomena is offered. Empirical researches are carried out and regularities of social interaction facilitation are shown and the method of definition of (numerical) influence of the facilitator on social interaction is offered. The model of social interaction facilitation can become the basis for further psychological research and provides an opportunity to apply the results for use in psychological practices, as well as in the training of competent professional facilitators.

The aim of this article is to show the advantage of submitting one biblical text to a variety of methodological approaches that will allow a reader to have a fuller understanding of the text. This article proposes to read a particular Pauline text (1 Corinthians 5:1–5) by using different methodological approaches that have been adopted and developed in biblical studies (the historical-critical approach, the “social-scientific” approach, the feminist and postcolonial studies approaches) to illustrate the benefit of using a multiplicity of exegetical tools in the hermeneutical tasks, instead of adopting just one.
