The article is devoted to the study of the peculiarities of conflicts in mixed and same-sex student groups. The theoretical basis of the study was the position of the structural features of interpersonal interaction in the middle of the group, including the substructure of horizontal and vertical relationships in the instrumental and expressive spheres of group activity. The study of conflict in student groups was based on the analysis of the characteristics of interpersonal relationships between group members in certain areas. To study the peculiarities of conflict in groups of different sexes, a questionnaire was developed, which provided an opportunity to determine the overall assessment of conflict, conflict in the vertical and horizontal subsystems of group activity, as well as in its instrumental and expressive areas. 188 students from 10 academic groups of the higher educational institution took part in the survey. Of these, six were sexually homogeneous and four heterogeneous. According to the results of the survey, the gender composition of student educational groups is more related to the emotional component of group activity and the horizontal substructure of intragroup relationships. These trends were confirmed using the methods of mathematical statistics (Student’s t-test). The results suggest that gender-mixed academic groups are more resistant to conflict triggers than homogeneous ones. However the composition of the group on the basis of gender can not be considered a factor that directly determines the conflict in the field of solving business problems, as well as interaction with teachers, officials of the dean’s office and student government.

The article covers results of an empirical study of the characteristics of tolerance to uncertainty of working students. The sample consisted of 44 participants - students of the V.N. Karazin Kharkiv National University. The first group consisted of 22 subjects who combine their studies at a higher educational institution with work, the second group - 22 subjects who do not work. Tolerance for uncertainty was measured by «Multiple Stimulus Types Ambiguity Tolerance Scale-I» (D. McLain, the adaptation by E. Osin) and «New questionnaire of tolerance for uncertainty» (T. Kornilova). Student's t-test for independent samples was used for statistical processing of the results. Findings of the study revealed that working students have a more positive attitude to new events, a deeper awareness of themselves as the subject of their own actions, and confidence that they control their lives, a greater tendency to make choices quickly and flexibly and the ability to maintain a vision of many opportunities, and greater tolerance for uncertainty in general. For these subjects are more inherent in the desire for change, novelty and originality, willingness to follow unpaved paths and prefer more complex tasks, to be able to be independent of the accepted limitations. Non-working students are characterized by a more pronounced desire for clarity and control in interpersonal relationships and a sense of discomfort in the event of uncertainty in relationships with others. The results obtained make it possible to improve the theoretical understanding of the characteristics of manifestations of tolerance to uncertainty at a student age, determine the prospects for further scientific research and can be used in practical psychological and pedagogical work with students.

The interactions among and between group members and a social worker often generate natural interpersonal tensions in group life. If handled with skill, these difficult moments have the potential to become significant turning points in members' ability to feel safe in the group and in their motivation to achieve the group's purpose through a mutual aid process. In this article the authors examine five areas of group life that are often sources of tension-filled situations. These areas are group composition, group purpose and the working agreement, the worker's authority, members' interpersonal relationships, painful material, and environmental factors. The authors recommend professional interventions aimed at converting high-tension moments into incidents that promote trust, caring, and mutual aid.

The paper presents results of the verification of a new approach to the study of status relationships through the position of a middle status group member — the approach developed within the framework of A.V. Petrovsky’s theory of activity-mediated interpersonal relationships in groups and M.Yu. Kondratyev’s school of thought at the Department of Social Psychology (MSUPE). A series of empirical studies were carried out in educational organizations of various types in Moscow and Moscow oblast, with more than 1200 students participating as subjects. The paper reveals how the character of intragroup interactions, well-being and emotional climate, as well as the level of social psychological development in the group in general, are shaped by the system of relationships between the middle status students with their groupmates. The paper concludes with some considerations on the specifics of the role that the middle status student plays in his group’s activity and outlines further perspectives of the presented social psychological approach to the study of status relationships.

Исследования российских и зарубежных ученых показывают, что распространенность агрессивного поведения детей в школьной среде в последние годы имеет тенденцию к росту. Пространство образовательной организации перестает быть безопасным, несмотря на принимаемые меры по его обеспечению: установка турникетов, металлоискателей, наличие охраны, создание школьной службы медиации (разрешения конфликтов) и т. п. Анализируется понятие и содержание агрессивного поведения. Проблема агрессии в образовательном учреждении рассматривается с позиции насильственных действий как по отношению к учащимся, так и по отношению к педагогам и к образовательной организации в целом. Крайним выражением агрессии и жестокости, как показывают реалии сегодняшнего дня, стали случаи нападения на школы и массового насилия со стороны учеников, сопровождаемые гибелью в равной мере детей и учителей. В этих условиях особую значимость приобретает роль учителя как носителя модели социального поведения в школе. Однако в ряде случаев именно учитель может вызывать агрессивные действия учеников, неправомерно используя вербальные средства для выражения своей неприязни к обучающимся, оскорбляя их достоинство. На основе результатов научных исследований анализируются проявления агрессивности в школьном социуме, определяются факторы, провоцирующие агрессию подростков. Делается вывод, что в формировании агрессивных намерений подростка-школьника ведущую роль играют межличностные отношения. Поэтому в образовательной среде важно создание такой модели взаимодействия субъектов воспитания, которая будет обеспечивать наиболее оптимальное сочетание их позиций и интересов. The prevalence of aggressive behavior of children in the school environment in recent years has a tendency to increase. The space of the educational organization is no longer safe, despite the measures taken to ensure it: the installation of turnstiles, metal detectors, the presence of security, the creation of a school mediation service (conflict resolution), etc. The article analyzes the concept and content of aggressive behavior. The problem of aggression in an educational institution is considered from the position of violent actions both in relation to students, and in relation to teachers and the educational organization as a whole. The extreme expression of aggression and cruelty, as today’s realities show, are cases of attacks on schools and mass violence by students, accompanied by the death of children and teachers alike. Under these conditions, the role of a teacher as a carrier of a model of social behavior in school is of particular importance. However, in some cases, the teacher can cause the pupils to act aggressively by illegally using verbal means to express their hostility towards students insulting their dignity. Based on the results of scientific research, the article analyzes the manifestations of aggressiveness in school society, identifies the factors that provoke aggression of adolescents. It is concluded that interpersonal relationships play a leading role in the formation of aggressive intentions of a teenage schoolchild. Therefore, in the educational environment it is important to create such a model of interaction between the subjects of education, which will provide the most optimal combination of their positions and interests.

The article discusses psychological issues of the role repertoire of university students in a situation of danger. Topicality of the problem is related to the wide range of threats a group may face, and its low scientific knowledge. The purpose of the research presented in the article is to study the nature of the distribution of roles in the group when solving security problems. The main research hypothesis is the assumption that the need to overcome danger may contribute to the repertory and functional specialisation of roles in the group caused by the fact and type of danger. Achieving this goal required an experiment. When organising it, ethical restrictions related to the inadmissibility of purposeful placement of a person in a situation of threat to life and health were taken into account. This determined the use of role-playing capabilities as the basis of the experiment. 10 student groups (10≤n≤15) with a high level of group cohesion according to the Carl Emil Seashore’s index were involved in the experiment. Each group was offered three dangerous situations, differing in the “field” and “effect” of danger, and its participants were required to discuss, play and reflect the repertoire and functional content of the necessary roles. Experts were engaged to analyse the empirical data. According to the results of the study, two types of roles demanded by a dangerous situation were identified – those aimed at overcoming the threat (initiator, expert, developer, coordinator, controller, commentator) and those aimed at supporting group members (optimist, nihilist, conformist, dogmatist). It is established that danger by its very fact specialises the functions of group roles. Each type of hazard increases the significance of certain roles. Regardless of the type of danger, the group is most in demand for the roles of optimist, conformist and developer. The study is promising to continue on other sample compositions and arsenals of dangerous situations.
