В статье обоснована актуальность психологического исследования ответственности личности. Представлены отдельные психологические взгляды на проблему ответственности человека. Проанализированы результаты эмпирического исследования индивидуально-типологических особенностей данного свойства у студентов. Описаны содержательно-смысловой и инструментально-стилевой аспекты ответственности «энергичного» и «астенично-затрудняющегося» типов ее реализации, представители которых различались преимущественно динамическими, эмоциональными и регулятивными особенностями. Авторами установлено, что студенты с «энергичным» типом реализации ответственности, четко осознавая ее высокую важность для различных сфер жизни, демонстрировали устойчивое стремление к проявлению ответственности и развитию навыков ответственного поведения, преодолению возникающих трудностей и препятствий, ориентировались на свои внутренние ресурсы и силы, не полагаясь на помощь окружающих и волю случайных обстоятельств; ощущали большую результативность ответственного поведения в личностно значимой сфере, несмотря на то, что в основе их стремления к проявлению и развитию ответственности лежали и эгоистические, и социоцентрические цели и мотивы: они в равной мере руководствовались как личными установками, намерениями и интересами, связанными с удовлетворением собственных планов и исполнением желаний, самовыражением, раскрытием своих способностей и потенциала, так и стремлениями выполнить долг, оказать помощь близким, соответствовать ожиданиям значимых других. В различных ситуациях они переживали и позитивные, и негативные эмоции и чувства в зависимости от степени новизны и сложности предстоящей задачи, а также оценки достаточности собственной компетентности для ее выполнения. В то время как студенты с «астенично-затрудняющимся» типом реализации ответственности, также осознавая значимость данного свойства, проявляя его и при решении практических задач в предметной сфере, и в процессе саморазвития, самоактуализации и активно регулируя его проявления, характеризовались неустойчивым стремлением проявлять ответственное поведение, более негативным эмоциональным фоном, тревожностью, неуверенностью в себе в ситуациях необходимости проявления данного свойства. Знание специфических индивидуально-типологических особенностей ответственности студентов выделенных типов, учет сильных и слабых сторон этого важнейшего свойства личности у каждого из них помогут вузовским психологам, педагогам и самим студентам определить направления работы по его развитию и коррекции. The article substantiates the relevance of psychological research of personal responsibility. It analyzes different psychologists’ views on the issue of human responsibility. It analyzes the results of empirical research pertaining to individual and typological characteristics of student responsibility. It describes the conceptual and instrumental aspects of responsibility in vigorous and asthenic people who differ in their emotional dynamics and emotional regulation. The author maintain that vigorous students fully appreciate the importance of various spheres of life, they do their best to behave responsibly, to overcome challenges, to rely on their internal resources and strengths and not on external factors, such as external help. Vigorous students see the results of their responsible behaviour. Driven by initially selfish and sociocentric interests, these students assist others, fulfill their duties, meet the expectations of other people who are important for them. Facing a new task, such students assess whether they are competent enough to complete it. In different situations, they experience both positive and negative emotions. Asthenic students fully appreciate the importance of responsible behaviour, however, they do not always behave responsibly, they often experience negative emotions and anxiety. In situations that require responsible behavior, they experience problems with self-esteem and self-confidence. Knowing specific individual and typological characteristics of student responsibility, taking into consideration their strengths and weaknesses, university psychologists and educators will be ale to help students to become more responsible and efficient.

The beliefs people hold about emotion are clearly relevant for emotional processes, although the social psychological research on malleability or “lay” beliefs about emotion are rarely integrated with the clinical research on emotional schemas. In the current study, we examine a variety of beliefs about emotion (e.g., beliefs that emotions can be changed, beliefs that negative emotions are bad, beliefs that emotions should not be expressed, beliefs that emotions control behavior, beliefs that emotions last “forever”) along with other emotion belief measures and measures of psychopathology (general psychological distress, borderline personality), emotion dysregulation, interpersonal emotional attributions (emotional expressivity, interpersonal emotion regulation) and psychological flexibility (mindfulness, emotional intelligence). In a combined sample of undergraduates (n = 162) and adults from Mechanical Turk (n = 197), we found that beliefs about the longevity and uniqueness of emotions were unique predictors of psychopathology, even after controlling for age and gender. We also found that after controlling for symptoms of psychopathology, beliefs about longevity and that negative emotions are bad predicted greater emotion dysregulation and lower mindfulness. Beliefs that emotions should be kept to the self and a preference of logic over emotion predicted less emotional expressivity, interpersonal emotion regulation, and emotional intelligence. Beliefs that emotions control behavior also predicted lower mindfulness. Finally, when asked whether they think their beliefs change during strong emotions, people who said their beliefs change (about two-thirds of the sample) reported higher symptoms of psychopathology, higher emotion dysregulation, higher use of interpersonal regulation strategies and lower mindfulness.

The education of pleasant interpersonal relationships is one of the great challenges of modern physical education. Learning to live together sustainably is also learning to transform conflicts and the negative emotions elicited by them. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of the GIAM pedagogical model (of the Motor Action Research Group) through cooperation-opposition traditional sporting games with competition in the presence of motor conflicts (conflict transformation; relational well-being) and on emotional regulation (management of negative emotions; emotional well-being). Empirical research was carried out using an associative strategy (explanatory study) involving 222 secondary school students (Mage = 14.86; SD = 0.65). A seven-session pedagogical intervention was carried out based on a championship using the Marro (Prisoner’s Bar) game. The students answered two validated questionnaires of socio-emotional well-being, the Games and Emotions Scale (GES-II) and the Motor Conflict Questionnaire (MCQ), at three phases during the experience (beginning, middle, and end). The findings showed that, through the GIAM model, motor conflicts and the intensity of negative emotions were reduced. It was found that conflicts and negative emotions are part of the same phenomenon and that through an appropriate pedagogical program it is possible to turn them into experiences of socio-emotional well-being.

The article considers the problem of studying the determinants of the types of responsible behavior of young people. It is assumed that there are similarities and differences in the determination of the types of responsible behavior of the youth. The study involved 70 students (average age – 22 years old, SD = 2.19; men – 12%). We used the standardized methods "Questionnaire for the diagnosis of the personal symptom complex of responsibility" (Kocharyan I.A.), "Methods for the study of self-attitude" (Panteleev S.R.), the questionnaire "Determining the level of self-esteem" (Kovalev S.V.), "Social Desirability Scale" (D. Crown, D. Marlowe). We established that the most pronounced types of social behavior of youth are "ethics" and "self-sacrifice". It is shown that the severity of the type of social responsibility is determined by various combinations of psychological characteristics. The most complex regression equation characterizes the type of responsible behavior “Normalizations”. The least pronounced prediction of responsible behavior was revealed in relation to its types: "Fidelity to principle" and "Self-confidence". The results of this study can be useful for further study of the problems of social responsibility, as well as for the development of programs for the formation of youth's social responsibility in educational organizations.

The positive relation of biospheric and altruistic values as well as the negative relation of egoistic and hedonic values to environmentally responsible behavior, are established findings in environmental psychological research. Recent findings revealed that compassion, the sensitivity to the suffering of other individuals, is also relevant for proenvironmental intentions. We tested the role of compassion in combination with universal altruistic, biospheric, egoistic, and hedonic values concerning an environmentally responsible behavior with an explicit social and hedonic component: sustainable fashion consumption. In a large survey study ( n = 981), we found that compassion was positively linked to sustainable purchase criteria. The manipulation of compassion in an online study ( n = 197) resulted in a small, positive effect on the willingness to pay extra for fair trade clothes. Moreover, we found that hedonic values showed a consistent negative relation to sustainable fashion consumption in both studies, thus corroborating former research on the critical relevance of hedonic values in the context of proenvironmental behavior.

Children with Asperger syndrome still need to be adjusted, in regulating their emotion, to their enjoyment in an activity that will be their emotional allocation. Art is able to improve their self-ability, to strengthen their self-confidence, and also to re-shape lack of knowledge about their own identity. This is because activity of art becomes a collection of inspiration, the aspect of imagination that is closely related to the aesthetic experience. This was a qualitative research as a study intended to understand the phenomenon of something that is experienced by the subject of research. For example: behaviour, perception, motivation, and action in holistic way and described in form of words and language, in a specific-natural context and by utilizing various methods. The research findings show that ability of emotional regulation is the ability of the subject in receiving and understanding a command, and then in minimizing tantrum, so that the subject is able to achieve a treatment therapy; including the subject's ability to identify and draw an object or other objects around them, to recognize some painting tools and to answer questions orally or in writing through the image media. The therapy can be packaged through art education based on painting activity which is the advantage of an area itself. Schools present learning programs that also support character education and the creative potential of the children, so that they can live independently later.

AbstractWhy are negative emotions so central in art reception far beyond tragedy? Revisiting classical aesthetics in the light of recent psychological research, we present a novel model to explain this much discussed (apparent) paradox. We argue that negative emotions are an important resource for the arts in general, rather than a special license for exceptional art forms only. The underlying rationale is that negative emotions have been shown to be particularly powerful in securing attention, intense emotional involvement, and high memorability, and hence is precisely what artworks strive for. Two groups of processing mechanisms are identified that conjointly adopt the particular powers of negative emotions for art's purposes. The first group consists of psychological distancing mechanisms that are activated along with the cognitive schemata of art, representation, and fiction. These schemata imply personal safety and control over continuing or discontinuing exposure to artworks, thereby preventing negative emotions from becoming outright incompatible with expectations of enjoyment. This distancing sets the stage for a second group of processing components that allow art recipients to positively embrace the experiencing of negative emotions, thereby rendering art reception more intense, more interesting, more emotionally moving, more profound, and occasionally even more beautiful. These components include compositional interplays of positiveandnegative emotions, the effects of aesthetic virtues of using the media of (re)presentation (musical sound, words/language, color, shapes) on emotion perception, and meaning-making efforts. Moreover, our Distancing-Embracing model proposes that concomitant mixed emotions often help integrate negative emotions into altogether pleasurable trajectories.

The aim of this research was to explore coaches’ perceptions about mental toughness characteristics in competitive Judo, in light of current single-sport mental toughness literature. Nine Portuguese Judo coaches from different levels of achievement (non-elite, sub-elite and elite) were interviewed. The protocol used for semi-structured interviews was based on <em>Personal Construct Psychology</em> “sociality” and “dichotomy” corollaries (Kelly, 1991). A total of 162 <em>verbatim</em> transcribed pages resulted as raw data. Properties and dimensions of the conceptual categories emerged from the data. Inductive content analysis revealed 22 attributes of mental toughness. Only eight were mentioned by all participants: resilience, self-motivation, self-confidence, self-improvement, work discipline, attention regulation, emotional regulation and competitiveness. In reference to previous researches exploring mental toughness on a single sport, our results in Judo reinforced large similarities across sports. However, slight differences were discussed in relation to three mental toughness characteristics not previously identified in literature: combativity, self-esteem and adaptability. In addition, other attributes were found to be peculiar to Judo, but not exclusive, due to its form of expression: tactical awareness, combativity and self-presentation regulation. Combativity was the only attribute that stood out as being rather peculiar to Judo.
