В статье рассматривается жанровое разнообразие песен некоторых деревень Канашского, Янтиковского и Урмарского районов Чувашской Республики. Рассмотрение выбранных нами автохтонных локальных традиций продиктовано тем, что именно из этих районов в разное время произошло переселение чувашей в Сибирь. Нами планируется сравнительное изучение фольклора переселенцев на новых территориях, которое будет проведено позже. Изучение локальных традиций позволит нам провести дальнейшее исследование. Фольклор рассматриваемых районов чрезвычайно богат и сложен. В ходе работы выявлены песни, исполняемые в этих районах в обрядовой и необрядовой сфере жизни чувашей. К обрядовой песне принято относить песни, исполняемые во время календарных праздников, и семейно-бытовые песни. Широко бытовали и бытуют в указанных районах календарные песни. Записаны здесь песни новогоднего цикла Шерни / Кăшарни / Кĕшерни юррисем, çăварни (масленичные), рет юррисем (букв. ‘песни родни’), исполняемые во время Мункун. Из семейно-бытовых песен широко распространенными являются туй (свадебные) юррисем, салтак юррисем (рекрутские песни и причитания). В ходе исследования не обнаружены записи пытару/пумилкке/асăну юррисем (похоронно-поминальных песен). Неполно представлен детский фольклор. Судя по материалу, активно исполнялись в этом ареале молодежные лирические песни. Вăйă юррисем (хороводные песни) схожи с улах (посиделочными) песнями, которые сопровождались ташă такмакĕсем, шÿтлĕ (шуточными) и игровыми песнями. Тăлăх-турат юррисем (сиротские песни) по мотиву расставания схожи с песнями хĕр йĕрри - плачами невесты, рекрута и çĕн çĕре каякансен юрри (переселенцев). Ĕç юррисем (трудовые песни) представлены пока неполно. В песенном творчестве указанных районов имеется множество сюжетных песен пейĕт, для которых характерными являются событийное изображение фактов жизни и психологическое переживание героя. Многочисленными являются записи ĕçкĕ-çикĕ юррисем (пирушечные песни) с разновидностями: кĕреке (застольные), хăна (гостевые) юррисем. The article considers the genre diversity of the songs in a number of villages Kanashsky, Yantikovsky, Urmarsky districts of the Chuvash Republic. The authors have chosen these autochthonous local traditions because the Chuvash people migrated to Siberia from these particular districts at different times. The authors are planning to make a comparative analysis of the folklore of the Chuvash migrants. The study of the local traditions will allow the authors to make further research. The folklore of the considered districts is very rich and complicated. The research revealed the songs related to ritual and non-ritual spheres life of the Chuvash people in those districts. Ritual songs are considered to be family and genre songs and the ones, which were used during calendar festivals. Calendar songs were widely performed in the mentioned districts and are still being performed at the moment. The authors have recorded the songs related to the New Year’s season - Sherni/Kesharni/Kesherni songs, shchevarni (Maslenitsa songs), ret yurresem songs (lit. songs of family and relatives) that were performed on Munkun. As for the family and genre songs, tuy yurrisem (wedding songs) and saltak yurrisem (recruitment songs and lamentation) are widely spread. During the research the records of pytaru/pumilkke/asanu yurissem (funeral songs) have not been found. Child folklore is partially presented. According to the material, youth lyric songs were actively performed in this area. Vaiyayurrisem (round songs) resemble ulakh (gathering songs) and accompanied by shutle / tasha takmakesem (humorous songs) and playing songs. Talakh-turat yurrisem (orphan’s songs) resemble kher yerri (bride lamentation), recruit and schen schere kayakansen (migrants’ songs) in terms of the theme. Esch yurrisem (labour songs) are partially presented. There are a lot of peyet (narrative songs) among the songs of the considered districts, which represent life events and emotions of the literary character. There are also a lot of records of eschke-schike yurrisem (feast songs) and its variations: kereke (drinking songs), khana yurrisem (guest songs).

The article presents the method of metaphors as a modern effective method that involves neurodynamic mechanisms of personal reflection on current life events. The formation, essence and functions of metaphor in psychological and pedagogical work are analyzed. The genesis of the concept "metaphor" reveals the growing dynamics of its use in the social and psychological sciences. It has been active since the mid-1970s, when metaphors became the independent subject of study. Phenomenologically, metaphor is manifested in all spheres of human activity, but the first sphere of its usage is language. Metaphorical language allows a specialist to convey relevant messages to the client in a fairly secure form and unobtrusively suggest solutions to the problem. It is due to this that it makes sense to use metaphor in consultative psychological and pedagogical work. The authors propose to regard the metaphor as a means of obtaining information about the peculiarities of the relationship in the system "parents - child". Depending on the content of the family life situation, metaphors can perform expressive, dissociative, diagnostic, explanatory functions. They are used in individual or group consultations, one can employ the following options: firstly, reading and discussing metaphors (expressed in parables, instructive stories, etc.) together with parents, which helps to establish the atmosphere of trust between a psychologist and parents, and becomes a starting point for discussion of a specific problem of child-parent relations. Second, discussing drawing with metaphors enables parents to be objectively aware of the problem and then work out possible effective behaviors and corrections. Thirdly, it is possible to work with metaphoric cards "Alphabet of parental love", "The wisest time", "All the facets of harmony", "Steps to wisdom", "Treasures of vital forces" and so on. Understanding the content of a card requires parents to think, feel and remember. In a state of reflexive calm, they can remember life situations, moments of difficulties in the relationship with their child. The article provides examples of metaphors and gives methodological commentary on the work of psychologists and social educators with them. Thus, the competent use of metaphorization in the counseling process can accompany the work of a psychologist and social educator from the moment of gathering information to the implementation of the last behavioral check of the performed intervention

Abstract This article proposes a detailed comparative treatment of negation in the Jodï-Sáliban language family (Venezuela-Colombia, Northwest Amazonia, South America), which consists of four languages: Jodï [yau], Sáliba [slc], Piaroa [pid] and Mako [wpc]. This comparative analysis of negation strategies across the four languages in the family not only offers an overview of negation strategies in this language family but also allows for conclusions to be drawn on the cognacy of the different constructions and markers as well as on the sources of the main negation strategies. Specifically, I show that, even though certain markers are not cognate, negation in these languages has – as far back as the documentation goes – always been postverbal and suggest that postverbal negation can be diachronically stable. This research thus offers an in-depth analysis of negation in Jodï-Sáliban, a language family that remains underdescribed, and, crucially, contributes to our understanding of postverbal negation and its sources.

The aim of the present study was to explore and to understand how 36 urban Southern Angolan couples perceived their family’s development across the lifetime. The study sought to compare those results with three systemic approaches of family development, two Western and another indigenous. Through semi-structured interviews, the existence of two trajectories of family life, with similar life events, were identified. The life events of these two trajectories were organized in a different chronological order, based on the religious commitment of the individuals. The results showed discrepancies with the Western models on the composition of the household (i.e., big backyard families and families with a third element) as well as the type of events considered to be important milestones within the family trajectory (e.g., the inexistence of the empty nest). This study provides support for the indigenous framework proposed by Simões and Alberto (2015) and contributes to a better comprehension of the family functioning of the urban Southern Angolan families.

Forty-two first-episode RDC schizophrenic patients were matched on sociodemographic variables with an equal number of control subjects. The life-event histories of both groups for 6 months before onset or interview were compared. Onset of illness was not preceded by an increase in life events. The only significant observation was that control subjects had experienced more events in the month previous to interview. These were reported mainly by male control subjects, involved the family, and were possibly related to the period when the control subjects were interviewed. The observations are discussed within the context of the Nigerian culture.

OBJECTIVES: to understand the family's experience of the child and/or teenager in palliative care and building a representative theoretical model of the process experienced by the family.METHODOLOGY: for this purpose the Symbolic Interactionism and the Theory Based on Data were used. Fifteen families with kids and/or teenagers in palliative care were interviewed, and data were collected through semi-structured interviews.RESULTS: after the comparative analysis of the data, a substantive theory was formed "fluctuating between hope and hopelessness in a world changed by losses", composed by: "having a life shattered ", "managing the new condition", "recognizing the palliative care" and "relearning how to live". Hope, perseverance and spiritual beliefs are determining factors for the family to continue fighting for the life of their child in a context of uncertainty, anguish and suffering, due to the medical condition of the child. Along the way, the family redefines values and integrates palliative care in their lives.CONCLUSION: staying with the child at home is what was set and kept hope of dreaming about the recovery and support of the child's life, but above all, what takes it away even though temporarily is the possibility of their child's death when staying within the context of the family.

The studies of insects from archaeological contexts can provide an important supplement of information to reconstruct past events, climate and environments. Furthermore, the list of the species present in an area in the past allows the reconstruction of the entomofauna on that area at that time, that can be different from the nowadays condition, providing information about biodiversity changes. In this work, the results of a funerary archaeoentomological study on samples collected from mummified corpses discovered during the restoration of the crypt of the Sant’Antonio Abate Cathedral of Castelsardo (Sardinia, Italy) are reported. The majority of the sampled specimens were Diptera puparia, whereas only few Lepidoptera cocoons and some Coleoptera fragments were isolated. Among Diptera, Calliphoridae puparia were identified asPhormia regina(Meigen, 1826) andCalliphora vicina, (Robineau-Desvoidy, 1830) both species typical of the first colonization waves of exposed bodies. Three puparia fragments were also identified as belonging to aSarcophagaMeigen, 1826, species (Sarcophagidae). Several Muscidae puparia of the speciesHydrotaea capensis(Weidmermann, 1818), a late colonizer of bodies, and typical of buried bodies were also collected. The few moth (Lepidoptera) cocoons were identified as belonging to the family Tineidae. This family comprises species feeding on dry tissues and hair typical of the later phases of the human decomposition. Among Coleoptera a single specimen in the family Histeridae,Saprinus semistriatus(Scriba, 1790) and a single elytra, potentially of a species in the family Tenebrionidae, were also collected. Overall, the samples collected indicated an initial colonization of the bodies in an exposed context, mainly in a warm season. This research allows the finding of elements indicating the presence, at least in the past, ofP. reginain Sardinia. This species at the moment seems extinct from Sardinia while it is quite common in the continent.

The most common cause of neurological disability in childhood is cerebral palsy. The objectives of the treatment of children with cerebral palsy are the acquisition and maintenance of new motor skills; prevention of the development of contractures and other secondary orthopedic complications; decrease in the level of pain; improving the level of childcare. At the same time, the provision of treatment and rehabilitation assistance to children with cerebral palsy requires an integrated, systematic approach. The article describes the route of rehabilitation of children with cerebral palsy in the Chuvash Republic from the moment of diagnosis until reaching the age of 18. The study was carried out on the basis of an analysis of data from the regional register of children with cerebral palsy at all stages of treatment and rehabilitation (habilitation). The first stage includes the identification of risk groups for cerebral palsy, conservative, surgical specialized medical care. The register of children with cerebral palsy made it possible to keep records of patients at the stages of treatment and rehabilitation with an assessment of the results. At the second stage, high-tech conservative and surgical treatment is carried out. After operations, patients are sent for rehabilitation to a 24-hour hospital or to a Rehabilitation Center for Children (over 3 years, 1.5 thousand children were treated, 25.7% after operations). The third stage is organized at the outpatient clinic level and in specialized sanatoriums. For 20142018 the coverage of children with cerebral palsy with conservative treatment increased 1.9 times, with botulinum therapy 2.6 times, the proportion of those who received surgery decreased to 22.4%. 92.7% of patients of the Register are covered by conservative treatment. 33.3% of operated children were referred for sanatorium-resort treatment. The control section of the rehabilitation results showed an increase in the proportion of children with improved gait quality, the ability to stand independently, walk (with support), and an increase in the average level of physical activity. A multi-level system of interagency interaction in the provision of treatment and rehabilitation assistance to children with cerebral palsy in Chuvash Republic made it possible to ensure a sufficient amount of basic and availability of highly qualified medical care, effective management and control of the stages of rehabilitation.
