Introduction. The changing role of family in the society and the increased rate of divorce highlight the problem of socio-psychological factors that contribute to the emergence of marital conflicts caused by spouses' dysfunctional interpersonal communication. Aim: to determine a set of instruments for studying socio-psychological factors in interpersonal communication dysfunction in marital conflicts. Results. A proposed complex of instruments for studying of socio-psychological factors in interpersonal communication dysfunction in marital conflicts partners includes three groups of tools. The first group is aimed at studying the features of marriage partners' interpersonal interaction in conflict situations and their satisfaction with marriage. The second group includes focuses on studying micro-level socio-psychological factors (the characteristics of marital partners that affect their interpersonal communication in conflict situations). The third group consists of tools for studying meso-level socio-psychological factors (the features of family interaction with social environment and marriage partners' work-life balance, which can contribute to the emergence of marital partners' interpersonal communication dysfunction). Conclusions. The proposed set of instruments for studying the effects of socio-psychological factors on marriage partners' communication dysfunction in conflicts can be used by family counselors, family mediators, family therapists, and family coaches. The set of instruments can also be used for training future marriage partners, in particular, for marital conflict-management training.

Research on Eastern European attitudes toward democracy has not comprehensively examined the economic, social, and political origins of support for and satisfaction with democracy and what these portend for democratic consolidation in Eastern Europe. Differentiating origins of mass support and satisfaction clarify whether ordinary citizens perceive democracy as a normatively correct, legitimate process of making collective and binding decisions or merely as a means to achieving efficiency and distributive justice. Multivariate analysis revealed that whereas social, economic, and psychological factors influence support, only economic evaluations predict satisfaction. This identifies support for democracy in Eastern Europe as emanating more from a recognition of the moral worth of the process than from a calculus about its benefits. However, the study reveals that dissatisfaction with democratic government abounds and may affect support. This challenges optimism for speedy consolidation, showing Eastern Europe poised to linger at the crossroads of transition for a while.

A profession or trade is a permanent occupation, an activity based on specialized education that someone regularly pursues on the basis of an appropriate qualification, in order to obtain remuneration. Personality is a universe that constantly encourages knowledge, but which can never be exhausted. Goethe believed that the supreme performance of scientific knowledge is the knowledge of man. The idea is justified both by the maximum complexity of the human being and by the fact that "man represents the supreme value for man." Between Nietzsche's pessimism, which states that "man is the animal that can never be defined," and Protagoras' axiological view, that "man is the measure of all things," personality is a global concept, a structure that cannot be defined only by its structural elements. The concept of interest and its implications for human learning and development have an important role in both education and psychology. In a society that continues to transform, social, economic and psychological factors cause profound changes in the sphere of professions and occupations. Therefore, there must be a transition to a training school and an appropriate way so that anyone can meet the requirements in a constantly changing society.

This article underscores the need for a profound transformation in the training processes of future teachers, and thereby in teaching practices. The text first presents various grounds for this transformation, citing social, economic-political, teleological, axiological, epistemological, and psychological factors. It then focuses on teacher development practices that need to change, highlighting the modifications to be brought to educational objectives, and in particular underscoring the essential need for a new approach in terms of relationships to knowledge and to students and other teacher educators. Finally, the article offers approaches for change in teacher education. In so doing, it argues for the establishment of appropriate conditions, the piloting of change, and for changes in the context of training and evaluation processes.

The problems of category of population at social risk - orphaned children and social orphans - are viewed. According to statistics, their number continues to grow, driven by a complex set of social, economic and psychological factors. Adoption is the most humane way to support these children, but it isnt the only way, for a number of objective and subjective reasons. Specialist agencies are still required for the provision of social, psychological and medical assistance to certain categories of children. Existing institutions are obsolescent, and therefore an urgent review of their typological structure and functional planning is demanded.

Research in recent years, especially in the analgesic field, has intensively studied the placebo effect and its mechanisms. It has been shown that physical complaints can be efficiently reduced via learning and cognitive processes (conditioning and expectancies). However, despite evidence demonstrating a large variety of physiological similarities between pain and itch, the possible transfer of the analgesic placebo model to itch has not yet been widely discussed in research. This review therefore aims at highlighting potential transfers of placebo mechanisms to itch processes by demonstrating the therapeutic issues in pharmacological treatments for pruritus on a physiological basis and by discussing the impact of psychological mechanisms and psychological factors influencing itch sensations.
