The article considers the process of self-identification as social progress. Theoretical researches of concepts of self-identification and identity are stated. The relationship of self-identification as a factor in the formation of personal identity is analyzed. The process of self-identification can be considered as a component of identification of a person with certain social groups, norms, values, traditions, religious dogmas, certain patterns of behavior and so on. Self-identification is a process of formation of personal identities, which includes the search for a certain identity as a model for personal development, identity formation or change its structure, the choice of certain values and qualities in the structure of the identity. Self-identification is a dynamic process of development of human self-consciousness, which is an important mechanism for the formation of personality. Through the concept of «identification» Freud defines the mechanisms of cognition and understanding of another person and social groups. Identification acts as a mechanism of personality development which consists in the unconscious identification of the subject with the object. Freud emphasizes that all types of identification are mechanisms of personality development. E. Erickson, characterizes the concept of self-identification through the concept of «identity». In turn, identity acts as an assimilated image of the individual in relation to the world around him. The concept of identity and self-identification is essentially plural, thanks to which it is actively applied to various aspects of modern reality. For a person whose originality and uniqueness are postulated from birth and by their own name and the right to show individual character traits, the concept of self-identification is extremely relevant. At the same time, the concept of «self-identification» is unstable and mobile, while acting as a leading and guiding self-concept of the person in the changing system of today. Self-identification is also an expression of the need to integrate certain values into the structure of personality, the desire to master certain knowledge and competencies. The process of self-identification includes identifying oneself with another person, social group, community of people, a certain pattern or image, defining oneself, one's social and moral guidelines, influencing one's own behavior and decisions. In this case, the individual must answer questions about their self-determination, place in life, their desires, goals and plans, opportunities, limitations, ideal image, and so on. The connection between self-identification and morality, on which the preservation of a certain identification status depends, should be taken into account here.

The article is devoted to the analysis of scientific approaches to studying civic identity as a form of social identity. It has been found that the following aspects are essential in the context of the study of civic identity: understanding it as a phenomenon, which has dynamical and structural nature, is closely related to the continuous processes of personality development and self-determination, induces the inclusion of an individual, the sense of inner unity with others and the importance of individual's existence in society, as well as evokes the identity seeking state (psychoanalytic approach); combination of individualizing and social aspects, the formation of identity in the process of socialization and social interaction through the internalization of roles, social norms, values, typical patterns of behavior (symbolic interactionism); understanding the self-categorization as an essential process in the identity formation, the existence of levels of self-categorization (which are considered as levels of identity at the same time), interpretation of identity as an internal regulator of individual's behavior (cognitive psychology); an ability for political, intellectual, spiritual and other elites to construct identity by influencing society by means of ideology (constructionism). It was reasoned, that the organizational-game approach is the most promising in the context of studying civic identity, as, on the one hand, it to some extent allows to synthesize the basic ideas of the above-mentioned scientific approaches, and, on the other hand, extends them with novel provisions (such as transaction/script analysis and organizational identity concepts), taking into account the essential characteristics of the civic identity of the individual. According to the organizational-game approach, civic identity is considered as a kind of organizational identity (a specific form of social identity), which is selfdetermination in the organizational environment of the state, as well as self-identification with the role of a citizen in the context of game and script interactions with state institutions and fellow citizens, and is additionally the primary psychological regulator of civic behavior.

The article analyses a sufficient number of psychological literature on the problem of aggression. We have revealed the state of development of the problem under study in science, its conceptual and theoretical foundations, namely the following provisions: determination of personality behaviour by dialectical unity of external and internal (dependence of behaviour on biological and social factors); abrupt, stage personal development in ontogeny; personality development is caused by a complex influence on her psyche of heredity, environment, upbringing. The driving force behind personality development is contradiction. The development of aggression occurs in the process of socialization of the individual, and its manifestations depend on individual-psychological characteristics, social competence in the conditions of aggression, cognitive and psycho-emotional state, etc.We have found out that there are different approaches to the study of aggression, the reasons for its occurrence, to determine its nature and structure of aggressive personality behaviour. It has been established that, despite the controversy of this issue, its various interpretations, psychologists are united in the fact that aggression is a form of behaviour aimed at harming another living being. Aggressiveness is a personality trait that expresses readiness for aggression. Aggressive behaviour is a complex and multifaceted process that involves various factors, both social and biological. We have identified the prerequisites and causes of aggression in adolescence. The authors identified criteria and indicators that diagnosed the aggression of adolescents in two secondary schools: district and city. We found the levels of aggression in adolescents from both schools based on the interpretation of the obtained data. As a result of correlation measurements, we found a higher level of aggression in adolescents of urban school.

Objective. The article analyzes the practices of homeless assistance programs and the possibility of developing a methodological approach, where the restoration of the lost subjectivity of the individual will become one of the methodological foundations of the psychology of homelessness. Background. The problem of homelessness is urgent both for Russia and foreign countries. Improving the effectiveness of the re-socialization practices for people living on the street implies a deeper understanding of the psychology of the homeless by social services. Methodology. This article considers the methodological principles of the historical-evolutionary approach (A.G. Asmolov), the approach to the analysis of cultural and personal development from the viewpoint of the chronotope (N.N. Tolstykh), the principle of supra-situational activity (V.A. Petro¬vsky), the idea of personality development pathways in challenging conditions (D.A. Leontiev), etc. Conclusions. It is concluded that assistance to the homeless is of an ad hoc nature and mostly includes the provision of material and emergency support. The authors propose a comprehensive model based on the idea of the homeless personality returning and upholding the following principles: 1) retention of activity on the side of the person, 2) effort on the part of the person, 3) maintenance of oversituational activity, 4) reliance on the personality, its potential, 5) support and organization of social relations, 6) polysystem.

AbstractReconstructing the behavior of extinct species is challenging, particularly for those with no living analogues. However, damage preserved as paleopathologies on bone can record how an animal moved in life, potentially reflecting patterns of behavior. Here, for the first time, we use computed tomography (CT) to assess hypothesized etiologies of pathology in a pelvis and associated right femur of an adult Smilodon fatalis saber-toothed cat, one of the best-studied mammal species from the Pleistocene-age Rancho La Brea asphalt seeps, Los Angeles, California. The pelvis exhibits massive destruction of the right acetabulum that previously was interpreted, for nearly a century, to have resulted from trauma and infection. We evaluated this historical interpretation using CT imaging to supplement gross morphology in identifying symptoms of traumatic, infective, or degenerative arthritis. We found that the pathologic distortions are inconsistent with degenerative changes that started only later in life, as in the case of infective or traumatic arthritis. Rather, they characterize chronic remodeling that began at birth and led to degeneration of the joint over time. These findings suggest that this individual suffered from hip dysplasia, a congenital condition common in domestic dogs and cats.The individual examined in this study reached adulthood (at least four to seven years of age) but never could have hunted properly nor defended territory on its own. As such, this individual, and other critically pathologic Smilodon like it, likely survived to adulthood by association with a social group that assisted it with feeding and protection. The pathologic specimens examined here in detail are consistent with a spectrum of social strategies in Smilodon supported by a predominance of previous studies. This application of a relatively new and interdisciplinary technique to an old question therefore informs the longstanding debate between social and solitary hypotheses for the behavior of an extinct predator.

Selective Mechanism

In line with the discussion of the ambiguity and confusion of definitions of the term morality, the concept of morality as a multilayered phenomenon and the object of descriptive ethics is clarified. Morality includes (1) behavioral patterns, regularly reproduced in human communities (part of the ethos), which in turn are associated with (2) specific psycho-emotional and motivational-volitional mechanisms of regulation of individual behavior in the social environment, (3) a special way of recording information in social memory and the cultural-genetic mechanism of imitation, ie belongs to socio-cultural mechanisms and is not limited to what operates at the level of individual mental organization. And the fourth layer here is the actual mental activity, woven into a network of social communications, which affects individual behavior (morality in the narrow sense). Component of the ethos of the community, which is reproduced as a cultivated norm of the “right” person, which includes his ability to subject his will to certain rules of relations, to lead a proper life, which is highly valued in this community, which increases social status and self-esteem. the desire to imitate her and protect her as one’s own, as a personal value, as a significant person, is a harma. The harmа of ethos is a cultivated model of man as a social measure of “humanity”, its paradigm. He who meets this standard, the charm, is his own and deserves to be like him. Otherwise, the mechanism of xenophobic alienation is triggered. The presented distinction between the terms morality, ethos and haram allows us to more clearly structure the problematic field of descriptive ethics, distinguishing between established patterns of behavior characteristic of a particular community (its ethos), cultivated in it a sample of “his”, which fixed protection and selective mechanism (in the narrow sense) as part of the social impact on the individual and social consciousness in the form of teachings, guidelines, explanations, and so on.

The article is devoted to the analysis of the philosophical heritage related to the problems of democracy and freedom. The search for new ideas about the phenomena of democracy, freedom, and personal development in various perspectives is carried out. We prove that the components of democracy include freedom, justice, and equality. Our article also shows that for a modern person, democracy is not conceived of without freedom. The position of the fundamental importance of freedom as the highest value for a worthy existence of the individual has also been further developed. It is established that the majority of people are ready to fight for the right to be free by all available means. For them, being free is a vital necessity. The life of modern society has several regularities, and one of them is the need to create conditions that involve a conscious choice of democratic values, the ideal of personal freedom, and creative development. The necessity of creating a model for the development of a free and harmonious personality is established. The article analyzes the key concepts of the essence of freedom in the history of philosophy. The understanding of Western European philosophical doctrines and systems allowed us to identify the peculiarities of understanding the problem of freedom in European philosophy and also to conclude that this understanding leaves for the individual the right to break out of the fetters of necessity. In the course of our study, we reveal the trajectory of the movement of an abstractly taken individual along the path of its ascent to freedom.
