The article is devoted to the motivational aspects of the attitude of students to patriotism in the modern environment. The relevance of the study of the problem of patriotic education of university students is determined by a number of circumstances - the social situation now in our country, the changes in public, political, and economic life, the overestimation of values in people's minds.In modern conditions, the priority part of patriotic education is military-patriotic education, focused on the formation of readiness for the defense of the Fatherland, the development of the desire to get military professions, to serve in the Armed Forces of Ukraine as a special form of public service. The material is provided based on the results of the survey in the regions of the South, the West and the SouthEastern part of Ukraine. The groups of motives for the formation of patriotic feelings are defined by the method of comparison: how does the youth consider the concept of “patriotism”, what does patriotism manifest in, how does it influence the formation of patriotic feelings, on what grounds do young people explain the concept of “patriotism”? Patriotic education of student youth is the pedagogical process of the formation of the personality of a citizen and patriot of their homeland based on the adoption of democratic values, compliance with the law, legal norms, universal morality and human participation in democratic processes, preparing them for the implementation of the patriotic education of youth. The pedagogical aspects of this process consist in a purposeful process of attracting students to the norms and values of a democratic society, creating an educational environment at the university that simulates society, democracy, lives according to the laws, organizing students 'participation in the process of democratization of life at the university, respecting students' rights, giving them assistance in the acquisition and accumulation of their own protection experience.

In the Federal Republic of Germany a discussion is going on about the role of teaching the mother tongue. This paper presents part of the data from a project presently carried out at the University of Essen (FRG). They consist of language tests (C-tests) in both the mother tongue of the students and German, as well as of a social survey investigating the students' attitude to school, the social situation and the language spoken at home, etc. The sample was taken from three nationalities. 1200 Greek, Turkish and Yugoslavian students were tested (400 for each nationality) aged between 10 and 16 (5th. to 10th. grade in the German school system). The sample was grouped into sets of two grades (5th, 6th. 7th., 8th. and 9th andl0th grade in the German school system) in each nationality. The language data confirm that supporting the mother tongue has no bad effects on the acquisition of the second language.

Historians of social science from Anthony Giddens forward have ably chronicled Erving Goffman's legacy. Goffman's resonant book titles alone hint at the Dickensian acuity of his social close-reading: The Presentation of Self in Everyday Life (1956), Behavior in Public Places (1963), Interaction Ritual (1967), Frame Analysis: An Essay on the Organization of Experience (1974), and Forms of Talk (1981). I envy newcomers the opportunity to read pieces like “On Cooling the Mark Out” (1952) and “Where the Action Is” (1967) with fresh eyes. Goffman, born in 1922 in Alberta, Canada, to Ukrainian parents, attended the University of Manitoba and the University of Toronto before receiving a PhD in sociology from Chicago. His fieldwork was in the Shetlands, and Asylums: Essays on the Condition of the Social Situation of Mental Patients and Other Inmates (1961) and Stigma: Notes on the Management of Spoiled Identity (1963) were both written after a period of ethnographic immersion at St. Elizabeth's mental hospital in Washington, DC. It may help first-time readers to know that as an adolescent he had a “special aptitude for noticing details of people's interpersonal conduct”; also that “his Chicago classmates nicknamed him ‘the little dagger’ because of his talent for the pointed personal comment. Sometimes, they felt, he never knew when to stop.”

Islami Jamiat Talba has been playing a key role in socializing students across Pakistan. Initially envisioned as (missionary) organization, it however, involved more in campus politics. In the framework of "Group socialization theory" this paper focuses on the systematic training and socialization procedure of IJT affiliated students. It primarily tries to investigate how IJT, as a distinct group, socialize students and make them part of the group? Data was collected through interviews in three different universities in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. The paper argues that, the social interaction of the students and their acquiring of new values and habits from their friends have enormous impacts on their personalities. The socialized members have uniform politico-social values and understanding of political events and issues. IJT transmit specific political norms and values to the students, helps in the transmission of a particular culture and thus creates a subculture of their own within the university campuses.

Very few studies of social indicators were carried out in Cuba before 1959. The two most complete included the 1946 National Agricultural Census (Memoria, 1951) and the 1953 Population, Housing, and Electoral Census (Oficina, 1954-55). In 1956-1957, the University Catholic Association (Agrupación Católica Universitaria, ACU) conducted a national survey (Gastón et al., 1957; the original Spanish version can found at http://edis.ifas.ufl.edu/FE292 and the English translation at http://edis.ifas.ufl.edu/FE297) that, despite the existing critiques discussed below, seemed to confirm the findings of the two censuses. Jolliffe et al. (1958) is perhaps the most quoted study on pre-1959 research on nutrition but, as explained below, it refers to a narrow universe. Díaz-Briquets (1983; 1986) contain useful information on several of the variables discussed in this fact sheet. This is EDIS document FE480, a publication of the Department of Food and Resource Economics, Florida Cooperative Extension Service, UF/IFAS, University of Florida, Gainesville, FL.

In the last few years many studies have appeared relating directly or indirectly to the role of adjustment in the ageing process. What factors influence the adaptability of the elderly person to his or her own disability, isolation or approaching death? In general the studies done by sociologists stress the importance of the social situation in which these persons find themselves. P. Townsend's book “The Family Life of Old People” (1957), the articles of Havighurst (1958) and his group in Chicago, and of Post (1958) are examples of this view. In what may be regarded in some way as a reaction to this tendency, we have the theory of disengagement of Cumming et al. (1960), in which “ageing is seen as an inevitable mental withdrawal or disengagement resulting in decreased interaction between the ageing person and others in the social system to which they belong”. But it is Irving Rosow (1960) who emphasizes this point more clearly. After critically reviewing diverse approaches, he states (and I quote from different paragraphs throughout his paper), “The root of the problem lies in regarding adjustment as a state or a condition at a point in time”. “What gerontologists have called adjustment is actually the result of the product of the ageing process”. “Thus it follows that the only way to evaluate conditions in later life is to compare them with some earlier patterns”. From there on he presents his own sociological theory of adjustment. Strengthening this view still further, a psychologist, Robert Peck (1960), reporting on one phase of the “Kansas Study of Adult Life” by the University of Chicago Committee on Human Development writes, “Adjustment to middle age and old age, in so far as it has been measured in this research, seems largely determined by personality characteristics which have been laid down earlier in life”. It is psychiatrists, however, who have insisted on the importance of the previous personality in the problems related to ageing, as may be noted in the publications of Cameron (1956) and Roth (1959).

Abstract This article1 compares and contrasts the practices of preaching between Christ Embassy and nasfat in the city of Abuja. The preaching of the two groups responds to the social situation of Abuja, which includes hard economic conditions and religious pluralism. The article analyses the preaching styles in Christ Embassy and nasfat within the framework of performance theory. It argues that preaching is an important instrument for empowering urban residents with the necessary mental resources for meeting the challenges of the urban environment. Moreover, the article argues that preaching is a practice of mediation that is facilitated by aspects such as stage design, dress, background music, eloquence, and preaching assistants. In Christ Embassy, one of the purposes of preaching is a total transformation of the individual mindset and the cultivation of new norms and values. Preaching in nasfat has the purpose of producing modern and pious Muslims who can live comfortably in pluralistic urban settings and project a positive image of Islam.

The expediency of interaction of the educational organization with the military units of the region in the process of military-patriotic education and pre-conscription training of young people for service in the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation is substantiated. As an example, we consider the experience of the Derzhavin Tambov State University in the field of military-patriotic work with youth both at the university and in the region. We analyze the features and results of the work of the regional branch of the All-Russian military-patriotic movement “Young Army”, the regional center for pre-conscription training of youth and military-patriotic education, operating on the basis of the university; the federal project being implemented jointly with the mil-itary units of the Tambov garrison to create in the region military-patriotic centers “Avangard”, organize regional stages of the All-Russian military-patriotic games “Zarnitsa”, “Eaglet”, “Victo-ry”. The author’s position is that the active participation of an educational institution in military-patriotic education and pre-conscription training of students of the university and the region in co-operation with the military units of the Tambov territorial garrison will allow not only to more ef-fectively solve the problems of educating a citizen, patriot, defender of the Fatherland, but also to become non-traditional potential “growth point” of the university. The directions and mechanisms of interaction between the university and the military units of the Tambov garrison are described, the results of interaction in the field of military-patriotic education of students in the region are as-sessed.

AbstractThe informal institutional structure embraces the social norms and moral values of a particular society and together with the formal institutional frame, they compose the social environment. Social norms and values, congealed into customary rules of behaviour, provide a stable and enduring context to economic life that acts positively or negatively on economic activity. Despite their methodological and theoretical differences, Mill and Marshall have both suggested that individual economic decisions are fully embedded in their social environment. Thus, in order to explain the economic phenomena, from simple transaction processes to long term development, they adopted a broader perspective by including the social frame inside which economic choices are made, divulging the role of custom, yet in a quite distinctive way.

When interacting on a learning task, which is typical of several academic situations, individuals may experience two different motives: Understanding the problem, or showing their competences. When a conflict (confrontation of divergent propositions) emerges from this interaction, it can be solved either in an epistemic way (focused on the task) or in a relational way (focused on the social comparison of competences). The latter is believed to be detrimental for learning. Moreover, research on cooperative learning shows that when they share identical information, partners are led to compare to each other, and are less encouraged to cooperate than when they share complementary information. An epistemic vs. relational conflict vs. no conflict was provoked in dyads composed by a participant and a confederate, working either on identical or on complementary information (N = 122). Results showed that, if relational and epistemic conflicts both entailed more perceived interactions and divergence than the control group, only relational conflict entailed more perceived comparison activities and a less positive relationship than the control group. Epistemic conflict resulted in a more positive perceived relationship than the control group. As far as performance is concerned, relational conflict led to a worse learning than epistemic conflict, and - after a delay - than the control group. An interaction between the two variables on delayed performance showed that epistemic and relational conflicts were different only when working with complementary information. This study shows the importance of the quality of relationship when sharing information during cooperative learning, a crucial factor to be taken into account when planning educational settings at the university.
