The article deals with the study of ornithonyms "hen", "chicken", which are part of the phraseology of the modern Ukrainian language. The object of phraseology is considered in a broad sense of the word – this intermediate level includes both idioms and proverbs, sayings, idiomatic figurative comparisons, and so on. It is found that phraseological units with the names «hen», «chicken» are widely represented in the Ukrainian language and are actively used by speakers to enhance the figurative characteristics of man, the situation, quite fully and conceptually represent different areas of material and spiritual life. The semantic and linguistic-cultural peculiarities of idiomatic expressions with ornithonyms "hen", "chicken" are analyzed. It is determined that the semantic structures of the studied phrases contain a significant number of metaphorical meanings used to denote a person. It is established that the majority of idioms with studied components describe human traits: positive (caring, diligence, observation, humility, gentleness) and negative (cunning, foolishness, carelessness, talkativeness, greed, meanness, deceit, indecision, dirtiness, etc). In addition, constant expressions that characterize emotional states (joy, sadness, fussiness, anger, loneliness, etc.), social statuses (wealth, poverty, family relationships), physical characteristics (poor eyesight, hunger), appearance are given in the article. Phraseological units related to the main function of a hen (laying eggs), chicken feed (cereals) and predators (fox), which pose a danger to hens, are also widely represented in the Ukrainian language. Symbolism, existing signs, beliefs associated with these birds are studied. The examples of functioning the analyzed ornithophraseologisms in literary and publicist texts are given. The typical conception that exists in the collective consciousness of Ukrainians about the names "hen", "chicken" is also highlighted.

e24173 Background: Informal caregivers provide critical support in the management of all aspects of care for patients with cancer. Although caring for loved ones with cancer can be rewarding, it can also have a significant impact on caregivers’ quality of life. The aim of this study was to understand how caring for someone with advanced lung cancer affects caregivers’ lives. Methods: A targeted review of the caregiver literature (Medline, Embase, and Psych Info; year limits 2006-19) using a single search strategy, and qualitative focus group discussion among caregivers (N = 6) who have been or are currently caring for a loved one with advanced lung cancer was conducted. Results: The search identified 99 articles; however, few articles met eligibility criteria (N = 12). Impacts focused on: caring for patient, psycho-social well-being, ability to work, hopes for future, and physical well-being. Several gaps describing the caregiver experience remained based on the results from the literature review alone. Qualitative insights from caregivers included: (1) Caregivers must deal with all aspects of the patient’s experience, as well as the broader physical and emotional well-being of themselves and family members. (2) Disease-related symptoms and treatment-related side effects can result in physical and emotional distress for both caregivers and patients. (3) Caregivers feel hopeless, frustrated, and discouraged regarding side effects, particularly when they cannot perceive the benefits of treatment. (4) Caregivers are often compelled to mask or suppress their feelings to maintain a sense of (relative) normalcy. (5) Negative emotional states directly affect family relationships and dynamics, heightening stress and loneliness for caregivers. (6) Caregivers’ contributions to shared treatment decision-making relative to the patient’s role shift throughout the cancer journey based on their loved one’s ability to cope. Conclusions: These results provide valuable insights into the under-studied experience of caregivers of patients with lung cancer. Future quantitative research will improve understanding of the unique challenges associated with cancer caregiving, as well as facilitate development of personalized, evidence-based support programs and interventions for caregivers.

The article considers the distant family as a social institution of education, formation and development of personality. The current state of solving the problem of socio-psychological and legal work with children from distant families is analyzed. The sample of the study is described in detail by family type, sex, absence of father / mother and duration of absence. The peculiarities of the functioning of the emotional sphere of adolescents from distant families (anxiety, aggression, hostility), low level of socio-psychological adaptation, low level of emotional well-being in the family have been experimentally determined. The relationship between the degree of socio-psychological adaptation of the adolescent’s personality and emotional states is proved. The dependence of gender differences in the functioning of the family and the emotional sphere of adolescents has been established. The types of groups of adolescents from distant families are determined, in particular: anxious, aggressive-anxious, hostile-anxious, aggressive-hostile, absence of manifestation of negative signs. A structural and functional model of social and psychological support of remote families has been developed, which provides for work with adolescents and their parents with the use of special technologies to ensure the effectiveness of conditions that form harmonious family relationships.

The main function of the internal picture of health (IPH) is the regulation of a person’s activity or behavior, and is aimed at maintaining the person’s health, illness prevention and illness resistance. There is one subject that continues to be insufficiently accessible to psychological research, i.e. the system of the parenting style adopted in a family and the IPH levels of their children. We can suppose that IPH is one of the major indicators of the health-oriented behavior, the latter being significantly influenced by the interfamily relationships and the parenting style. Methods: there were 82 primary school children who participated in the study. Along with the children, their mothers also took part in the research. Practically all of the fathers agreed to enroll in the study, but in fact only a few were actually involved, which was not enough to provide evidence-based conclusions. The IPH of the children and their parents was evaluated by means of a questionnaire (Nikolaeva et al., 2014). Upbringing styles were assessed by “The Analysis of Family Relationships” questionnaire (AFR method). We have shown that the better-developed the IPH is, the more likely it can signify a harmonious upbringing style. A low level of the parents’ emotional intelligence results n the predominance of indulging hyper protection parenting style which is considered ineffective. Keywords: the internal picture of health, parent-child relationship, parents, primary schoolchildren.

Aim. In order to provide psychological counselling, it is necessary to properly diagnose and study the psycho-emotional states, psychological makers of parents raising children with special educational needs (SEN). Methods. In the diagnostic and practical work with parents of children with SEN, we used the text analysis method and the biographical method (including projective techniques lifeline, my autobiography), which combine diagnostic and psychotherapeutic scientific results. Family sociogram technique (Eidemiller, 2002) and its modified version (Tkachova, 2014) are used to study interpersonal family relationships and the nature of communication. The article analyses the scientific data and approaches to the study of problems faced by parents, arising from the condition of their child; emotional states of parents raising a child with SEN; stage of experience of the birth of their child. Results. Intervention is focused on the present and future. If the experience of the past comes up, it is used for the benefit of achieving certain goals. An important result of the study to be worked on is that parents of special children mention only their family and children, but forget about their own wellbeing. Children with SEN are surrounded by care and love, parents seek symbiotic relationships with children trying to satisfy all their needs, protect from difficulties, offer boundless love and sometimes over-protection. Conclusion. Knowledge of psychological stages identified within the theory of grief helps professionals understand when and how it is better to intervene in the situation taking into account the characteristics of a particular family and individual reactions.

Target Subject

The name psych-verbs is commonly assigned to verbs denoting mental or emotional states, such as fear, worry, frighten, or surprise. Such verbs select a participant/an individual who experiences an emotional or mental state, usually referred to as an Experiencer, and a non-Experiencer argument, sometimes called stimulus, trigger of emotion, causer or target/subject matter, or subsumed under the label of ‘theme’ (Landau, 2010, p. 5). The special behaviour of Experiencers, related to the so-called ‘psych effects’, is the reason why psychological predicates have been a subject of debate in theoretical syntax for several decades. The aim of this study is to check whether English verbal phraseological units, which denote a psychological condition of an Experiencer and occur with locative Prepositional Phrases (PPs), may serve as evidence for Landau’s (2010, p. 6) hypothesis of ‘Experiencers as mental locations’. Landau’s theory has been chosen since it covers a much broader variety of data, in comparison with the previous approaches, offered by Belletti & Rizzi (1988), Grimshaw (1990), and Pesetsky (1995), among others. The data analysed in the paper have been extracted from English dictionaries of idiomatic expressions, supported with the COCA Corpus. The study focuses on Object Experiencer verbal phraseological units that display a structure V + PP. The results of the study reveal that, in total, out of 3,000 tokens, there are only 50 psychological verbal idiomatic expressions with an Object Experiencer. However, the data show that a lexical P with the Experiencer as an object appears only in 13 (26%) idiomatic expressions out of the 50, whereas 37 items (74%) include an Experiencer preceded with no P. The latter might be treated as exhibiting an oblique Experiencer with a null preposition. However, no relevant syntactic evidence can be found in support the claim that there is a covert P in this type of phrase. Therefore, the results do not provide enough evidence in favour of Landau’s (2010) theory of Experiencers as mental locations, placed either in a covert or overt PP.

The main function of the mind is to parse and contrast between things to reconstruct what they might mean. We segregate what is or is not of the “same.” What we are constantly doing in our head is tracking what is of the same and, hence, also what is different. We are born with what we might call an “exclusivity instinct,” in the broad sense of sorting things by exclusion of what is not of the same, which also necessarily results in the detection of what is of the same category. Both are inseparable and co-determined processes, yet psychologically and particularly in the social and moral realm, the former (exclusion) tends to have precedence over the latter (inclusion).

The Subject

The visibility and success of Latgalian schlager groups in Latvia are of interest not only due to music composed by these groups, but even more regarding lyrics created by these musical associations, and especially concerning their relation to Latgale. The aim of the research is to describe the manifestations of the concept of Latgale in the lyrics of Latgalian schlager groups. The object of the research is the concept of Latgale, the subject of the study consists of the texts of Latgalian schlager groups (“Patrioti.lg”, “Galaktika”, “Ginc un Es”, etc.). The source of the study is 12 albums that have come out over the period of ten years (2008–2017). Both Latgalian (the Latvian language of Latgale) and Latvian texts are discussed. Latgalian groups sing about the same themes that are covered around the world – love, everyday life, reflection, quest for the sense of life, etc. The concept of Latgale is among them too. Taking into account that the term concept is often used in different linguistic and cultural spheres and its limits of understanding are quite extensive, in this study it is used in the linguacultural sense, i.e., concept is a unit of collective consciousness guiding towards higher spiritual values, which is linguistically expressive and which possesses ethno cultural features (Аngelova 2004). The first discoverer of the concept of Latgale is language. In this research it is the Latgalian language consistently used by some groups, for example, “Patrioti.lg”; also the last album of duet Inga and Normunds (2015) is completely in Latgalian, while other artists (“Galaktika”, “Ginc un Es”) use Latgalian lyrics only in separate songs written either by musicians themselves or by poets. In any case, at least some songs in Latgalian included in an album are positive examples of the liveliness and functionality of language. Geographical names are rather widely represented in the lyrics and serve as a confirmation of the territorial identity of Latgale. Several titles directly include an indication to Latgale, for example, the titles of the following albums – “Munai Latgolai”, “Latgaleite”, or the names of songs – “Latgale”, “Munai Latgolai”, etc. Latgale’s most famous geographical objects associated with our region in the rest of Latvia are mentioned in schlager songs. For example, Latgale’s largest lakes Rāzna and Lubāns, the river Daugava, the hills – Liepukalns, Mākoņkalns. The naming of geographic objects is inextricably linked with the sense of homeland. The lyrics of these songs acknowledge patriotism and pride about our land or region, partly attributable to the mentioned geographical objects; however, the manifestation of the concept of Latgale is often expressed in descriptive terms. Several authors successfully use the symbols of Latgale, thus influencing the listener’s awareness even more, for example, Latgale as the land of blue lakes – a traditional and positive stereotype of the region. Latgale is closely associated with Latgalians’ belief in God due to the strong Catholic traditions. Authors of lyrics include religious motifs truly believing in their hearts or emphasizing religious themes on purpose in order to particularly impress people of middle and older generation who make up one of the main parts of target audience. The song lyrics written by poets (Ineta Atpile-Jugane, Leontīne Apšeniece, etc.) stand out for their artistic and ideological qualities in contrast to texts created by musicians themselves. In their poetry too there is a call to stay, live and work in Latgale. It should be considered a positive trait that Latgale is not shown as a wictim, but it is a place that symbolizes hope and patriotism. As the main function of schlager music is entertaining the listeners, a number of texts depict cheerful social and party situations where beer belongs as one of the unwritten symbols of Latgale and Latvia. Also a significant part of Latgale is song, which gives strength and unites people. The portrayal of Latgale in lyrics mostly invokes nostalgic and positive emotions, confirming Latgalian values and objects that are known to common listeners.
