this article examines the issue of gender socialization and identity in modern Russian society, on the basis of analysis of gender characteristics of the personality is compared changes in the structure of the psychological sex (gender) in three age groups (up to 20 years - generation y, 20-40 years - Generation Y and 40-60 years - Generation X), analyzes the causes and possible consequences of changes in gender patterns in different generations. Specifically, the study found that changes in the composition of gender properties and a shift away about traditional stereotypes of feminity and masculinity in the direction of mixing gender roles and qualities occurred in all generations, but the most significant transformations occurred in young men and women of the younger age group (generation) and in middle-aged women (generation Y). The article also presents new data on structural changes in the composition of nuclear personality properties of gender: all males with a general tendency to mix gender qualities in the structure of "real self", the nuclear component of gender consists mainly of their masculine qualities, which is especially evident in men of the middle age group (Generation Y). In women of all generations, the nuclear composition of gender's personality were inconsistent and contradictory, and the choice of masculine qualities in the first places of the gender hierarchy in middle- and older age groups (generation Y and X) may indicate a trend towards further transformation of traditional feminist gender.

This article examines the problem of gender socialization and identity in modern Russian society, on the basis of an analysis of ideas about the typical and ideal gender characteristics of the personality is compared to three age groups (up to 20 years - generation q, 20-40 years - Generation Y and 40-60 years - generation X) and concludes on the main trends in the development of gender characteristics of the individual in groups of different gender and age. The study obtained new empirical data on age and sexual differences in perceptions of typical and ideal qualities of gender, in particular, found that the age of women significantly influences their ideas about the male and female gender ideal, the age of men significantly influences their perception of the male gender ideal, members of different generations of the south significantly differ in ideas about the female gender ideal, the representatives of different generations Y significantly differ in ideas about the female gender ideal , the biological sex in the age group X influences the idea of male gender ideal. At the same time, there were no statistically significant differences between gender and age in the perception of typical male and female qualities. The results can be an important material for a differentiated approach to family counselling and assistance in building harmonious inter-sex relationships.

The aim of the research. The influence of hydrogen sulphide donor on some structural characteristics of platelets and leukocytes in patients with arterial hypertension was studied. Materials and methods. The survey involved patients (men) with hypertension aged 30–60 years, who were divided into 2 age groups: 30–40 years and 40–60 years. Control groups (healthy men without signs of hypertension) were randomized by age. Electron microscopic and morphometric research methods were used in the investigation. Results. Electron microscopic and morphometric evaluation of the structure of these cells has shown that it undergoes significant changes depending on patient’s age. In the persons of the older age group, the cells contained a reduced number of dense δ-granules and increased – α-granules, which may indicate an impaired serotonin balance and increased susceptibility to thrombogenesis. The younger age group presented structural changes in platelets in a reversed order. Adding hydrogen sulphide donor at a dose of 400 mg per day (phytopreparation Full Spectrum Garlic – Swanson Health Products, USA) to the traditional therapy of arterial hypertension leads to positive changes in the ultrastructure of the studied cells aimed at restoring the balance of serotonin, reducing the tendency to thrombogenesis, increasing the energy capacity of the mitochondrial apparatus. Conclusion. The obtained results indicate that detected effects significantly depend on the patient’s age (younger people respond more intensively) and the duration of the use of hydrogen sulphide donor (longer use is accompanied by more pronounced positive changes).

Abstract The use of new technologies has brought many changes into consumer behaviour, especially into purchasing process. The aim of the article is to uncover the attitudes of different generations towards usage of new technologies in purchasing process and determine if the diffusion of innovative purchasing process is significantly different among different generations. The article presents the results of authors´ research of usage of new technologies in purchasing process, as well as attitudes towards it, among different age groups - Generation X, Y, Z and seniors. Results of hybrid research carried out by semi-structured interviews with 551 respondents show, that there are significant generational differences in all three components of attitude towards online purchase, which can be - due to its characteristics- considered the most complex use of new technologies in purchasing process. Results prove that the diffusion of innovation in the purchasing process is significantly influenced by the age group. With age the number of Innovators significantly drops and the percentage of Laggards rises. The ratio of those adopting “early” and “late” significantly changes according to age group as well. Majority of younger respondents are accepting the new technologies into purchasing process early (Innovators, Early Adopters, Early Majority). Middle-aged consumers accept the innovations proportionally - copying the Roger´s curve. Among seniors, the majority is “late” (Late Majority and Laggards).

Energy Deficiency

One of the leading causes of arterial hypertension (AH) is mitochondrial dysfunction (MD) – moreover, disorders in regulation of blood pressure occur on the background of progressive energy deficiency. At the same time, the cardioprotective effect of H2S has been proven. In particular, the inhibition of mitochondrial pore opening by hydrogen sulfide plays an important role, and H2S should affect the structural component of MD, namely, the ultrastructure of mitochondria. However, at present, the question of structural changes in the mitochondrial apparatus in patients with hypertension is extremely insufficiently studied. For the study of MD in healthy people and patients with pathology, almost the only objects (in the absence of surgical intervention) are blood cells, in particular leukocytes. Based on the above, the aim of the study was to investigate the effect of a hydrogen sulfide donor on the ultrastructure of the mitochondrial apparatus of leukocytes in patients with arterial hypertension. The effect of a hydrogen sulfide donor on some ultrastructural characteristics of the leukocyte mitochondrial apparatus in patients with hypertension was studied. The examination involved patients (men) with arterial hypertension aged 30-60 years, who were divided into 2 age groups: 30-40 and 40-60 years. Control groups (healthy men without signs of hypertension) were randomized by age. An electron microscopic and morphometric assessment of the structure of mitochondria revealed that under hypertension it undergoes significant changes that depend on the age of the patients. It has been established that the addition of a hydrogen sulfide donor (Full Spectrum Garlic phytopreparation (Swanson Health Products, USA) at a dose of 400 mg per day) to the traditional therapy of hypertension leads to positive changes in the mitochondrial ultrastructure of the studied cells aimed at increasing the energy capacity of the mitochondrial apparatus – the quantity reduction of structurally damaged mitochondria, and with an increase in the duration of treatment – the increase their total number in people of the younger age group (by 57.5%), and in the older age group – by 53.7%. Thus, the indicated effect of H2S significantly depends both on the age of the patients (young people respond more intensively) and on the duration of the hydrogen sulfide donor using (long-term use is accompanied by a more pronounced positive dynamics of changes).

Objectives. The study of the socio-psychological portrait of the so-called “Y” generation (born 1982—1999) in terms of stereotypes and autostereotypes regarding the rationality and pragmatism of this generation. Background. Stereotypes that arise when interacting with people of another generation, always remain a relevant topic due to the constant change of generational cohorts. The media and popular image of the “Y” generation in the context of its rationality and pragmatism is due to the socialization of most representatives of this generation in the new post-Soviet individualized and “market” Russian society. Study design. The study was carried out in 3 stages and was based on a mixed qualitative and quantitative methodology (which may explain the limited sample size). Participants. 100 people (Stage I — 62, II — 18, III — 20), representatives of the so-called generations “Y” and “X” (Russia). Methods. At Stage I, a questionnaire survey and an author’s projective method were used, dedicated to the perception of interpersonal relations in movies; at Stage II — an in-depth interview on the topic of romantic relationship; at Stage III — a semi-structured interview on the topic of organizational loyalty. Results. Data were obtained according to which the generation “Y” perceives itself, as well as is perceived by the older generation “X” as (1) more rational in romantic relations, (2) different in terms of interpreting the presence of competition and cooperation in interpersonal relations, and as well as (3) a less loyal and more pragmatic in terms of organizational career generation. Conclusions. The obtained results confirm the stereotypes of the “Y” generation that have developed in the media space considered in the article, and also contribute to the formation of a comprehensive socio-psychological portrait of representatives of this generational cohort.

The COVID-19 pandemic has become a key problem for Russian society and government officials in 2020. In this regard, there is an urgency to study the assessments and peculiarities of the perception by the population of anti-covid measures of the authorities, which were initially associated with risks of a social, economic, and political nature. The purpose of this study is to identify age-related features of the perception of anti-epidemic measures of the authorities, using the example of residents of the Kaliningrad region. From August to November 2020, six focus group interviews were conducted with representatives of three age groups. The data obtained were processed in the ATLAS.ti qualitative analysis program. As a result, it was revealed that the main age differences are manifested when assessing the introduction of remote forms of social interaction in the conditions of coronavirus. The older generation's negative attitude to innovation is due to concern for their grandchildren and children receiving the necessary educational and communication skills and competencies in this format, as well as due to fears of being deceived by fraudsters. At the same time, young people and middle-aged people note the positive possibilities of distance learning due to the simplification of the implementation of a number of social actions. Age differences were also revealed regarding the perception of information about the pandemic situation provided by government representatives. The youth believes that the distortion of this information may be based on the political motives of the authorities. Representatives of the older age group believe that the reason for the correction of information by the authorities is the desire to obtain financial benefits at the expense of the population. People in the age group of 31-49 years see this distortion mainly as a good motive for preventing panic among the population. Estimates of the introduction of self-isolation and the attitude to mass vaccination against COVID-19 were similar among representatives of different generations. Often supporting the regime of self-isolation, respondents noted the obligation of the authorities to ensure the financial security of people. Regarding the use of the vaccine, skepticism was found among all age groups due to fears about its unreliability

The article investigates and analyzes the unemployment rate in Ukraine for a certain period (2000-2018). The general state of the unemployment market of Ukraine is considered. We compared the number of unemployed in rural and urban areas, and identified the causes and methods of overcoming and reducing unemployment. The unemployment rate of Ukraine was compared with the developed countries of the world, namely with Japan, Great Britain, USA and Poland. a comparison of the number of unemployed in rural and urban areas. Labor market and unemployment surveys were conducted. Analyzes the economically active population of Ukraine (2000 - 2018). Different age groups are considered, their economic activity for January - June 2019, it is recognized what age groups prevail in the unemployment market, why they proposed methods of increasing their economic activity. We attributed the economically active population to eight age groups: the first age group - 15-24 years, the second age group - 25 - 29 years, the third age group - 30-34 years, the fourth age group - 35-39 years, the fifth age group - 40-49 years old, sixth age group 50-59 years old, seventh age group 60-69 years old, and the last age group - people 70+ The number of unemployed in rural and urban areas by age group for January - June 2019 is compared, the prevailing and least economically active age group is determined. Based on our research and data analysis, we will be able to offer methods of solving the unemployment problem. Based on the results of the study conducted in this article, we will be able to provide recommendations on how to reduce unemployment among Ukrainians. Unemployment is one of the most pressing problems of modern society, an integral part of a market economy. Based on the data analyzed, the unemployment rate will increase and adversely affect the efficiency of Ukraine's economic activity, if the issue related to overcoming this phenomenon is not resolved. That is why to overcome this phenomenon we need to apply the developed methods.

Three groups ( n = 54) of participants aged 17–26, 39–51 and 59–76 were asked to solve two types of concept problems to investigate the intellectual correlates of concept identification as a function of stage of learning in adulthood. Predictions derived from the Gf-Gc theory of Horn and Cattell were partially supported in each age group. Differential ability-performance relations as a function of stage of learning were considerably less potent in the elderly versus the young and middle aged. Comparisons both within and between age groups suggested that a dynamic picture of interactions among organismic and task-related variables is preferable, reflecting structural changes in such relationships with practice and cohort membership.

The purpose of the work is to carry out the segmentation of modern Russian society by generational groups, based on the theory of modern generational segmentation. Segmentation is the first necessary step in the analysis of each generational group in terms of lifestyle and value picture of the world. In accordance with the Russian cultural and historical development the authors identified 6 generations, whose representatives live in modern Russian society: “revolutionary generation”, “military generation”, “thaw generation”, “stagnation generation” (generation X), “fracture generation” (generation Y), “digital generation” (generation Z). The article also reveals the essence of the category “generation” from the point of view of sociology.
