The article considers the typology of forms of envy, its functions, analyzes the ratio of types of envy with different types of protective and coping behavior in students of different training profiles. The study involved 50 students from 19 to 22 years old studying in different specialties of the university. Student age is a period of development of mature mechanisms of protection, constructive coping and envy as a personality trait. The authors started from the assumption that different types of envy are related to different types of protective and coping behavior and their difference among students of different learning profiles. The results of the study prove there is a relationship and interdependence of types of envy with strategies of coping and psychological protection. It was revealed — there is a close relationship between types of envy and coping strategies. It is established that different types of envy are characteristic of students of different profiles of study. Envy-dislike is more pronounced in students of a technical orientation, envy-despondency is the dominant type of envy in humanitarian students. It is proved that avisity-dislike has a positive close relationship with maladaptive confrontational coping in humanitarian students. Planning a solution to the problem and positive reassessment are interdependent and interrelated with envy-hostility among students-technical profile of training. Substitution and hypercompensation are positively interrelated with envy-hostility among humanitarians. Students of the technical profile of education revealed an inverse relationship of envy-despondency with projection and a direct connection with displacement. Envy-dislike is interrelated and interdependent with rationalization. The author plans to associate further research with the development of diagnostic tools and measures to prevent and correct feelings of envy.

In 2006, the University of Maryland, Baltimore County (UMBC) entered into a unique partnership with Retirement Living Television (RLTV). Initially driven by the practicalities of bringing a new broadcast network to air, the relationship came to influence the role of new media technology in teaching and learning on the UMBC campus. The Charlestown Project brought university students and senior citizens together to create short digital movies. The project also became a catalyst for creating human connections beyond the campus and across generations. Along the way, students formed new attitudes towards aging and community, and the campus attained an increased awareness of the power of digital storytelling.

This work analyses how the theme of the creation of thinking machines by man, particularly through artificial intelligence, is dealt with on stage, with reference to three plays addressing different topics and characterised by different types of performance. This analysis reveals the particular effectiveness of plays dealing with scientific topics, when the relationship between theatre and science results in reflections transcending the boundaries of its contents to address man and his essence and gives voice to the ancient question of the sense of the world.

This study aims to understand the kind of relationship that students from two Portuguese higher education institutions – the Portalegre School of Health Sciences (ESSP) and the University of the Azores (UAC) – have with hazing and whether there are profiles of students associated with different types of relationship with hazing. Data were collected through the scale ‘Evaluation of Bullying Situations in Higher Education Hazing’. The findings obtained using appropriate statistical techniques, exhibit significant differences between the ESSP and the UAC, with students from the ESSP displaying a better relationship with hazing. They also showcase appreciable differences in the relationship with hazing between the ESSP and the UAC depending on personal, academic and behavioral variables. The findings finally indicate that, at each institution, the profile of students who express a better relationship with hazing differs from those who distance themselves from this ritual in terms of personal, academic and behavioral variables.

  This paper provided an overview of the types of interactions in the distance learning environment mentioned in the literature, which are represented in the interaction of the learner with the content, the interaction of the learner with the teacher, the interaction of the learner with the learners, the interaction of the learner with the technological system and the interaction of the learner with the graphical interface. It added a sixth type related to the interaction of the learner with the employees of the university units and departments, such as the Admission and Registration Unit, the Academic Advising Unit and others. This type of interaction, we refer to, plays an important role in the distance learning process and when it occurs, it will likely help learners to cope with the technical and psychological problems they face and will drive their spiritual، social and physical growth, in addition to cognitive growth, that is through technical support services and curricular and extracurricular activities which provided by university's units and administrations. This paper also revealed the relationship between the different types of interaction, how they are affected by each other, and the dependence of some on each other, and it proposed a model that demonstrates this.

In this article the relationship between music and language is first considered theoretically. Here the ideas and concepts are mainly derived from psychoanalytical theory as well as from its reformulations. A theory on the (early) forms of thinking is presented in which the author grounds the different types of meaning included both in music and language - without forgetting the unique features of them. Upon this, the differences and similarities between music therapy and psychotherapy are considered. It is suggested that instead of many unique characteristics of the therapies, the differences are not necessarily fundamental, and further, both of them have some advantages and shortcomings that can be associated with language - some way or another. After the theory part, the role of free improvisation in the music psychotherapy is considered. The author describes the process "from signs to symbols, from symbols to words" where improvisation in music psychotherapy process can play an important role. Here the role of improvisation analysis is emphasized. A specific "graphic notation" method, developed at the University of Jyväskylä, Finland, is presented. Through an example, based on the utilization of this method, the author illustrates what kind of meanings it is possible to "extract" by aid of it. Some suggestions for the clinical interpretations are also made.

: In the article “Syntax overview at units’ level: Syntagma, sentence, phrase, and some correlations with the order of their Greek-Albanian constituents in the tri-lingual Talking Dictionary of Th. Mitko”, the author, pedagogue of the Modern Greek Language in the University of Tirana, Elvis Bramo, brings the level of the language as the main topic of this research, that is the syntactical level, starting from the syntagma unit (as a building unit), different types of sentences, some phrases with predicative components, and some bilingual segments: Albanian-Greek, to identify several peculiarities of word order. This comparative study between the two languages ( the Talking Dictionary has been compiled in three languages) aims at achieving some partial conclusions about the construction of the syntagma, their types as far as syntax connecting ways are concerned, and the valences that merge them into classes of words; It aims to identify the types of sentences with the grammatical elements of the question, with question words, with the denial grammatical tools, as well as the characteristics of the verbs as the heart of the syntatical organization in the communicated unit-phrase. Regarding the phrase (period), Bramo has pointed out the relationship of the phrasal components merging, their functioning together with their thematic and rematic role, on the basis of the Prague School. The language research from this viewpoint of Th.Mitko’s work, one of the most famous Albanian folklorists, has also brought in a comparable plan some models of syntactical phrasal and compound structures, to show that although the Greek and the Albanian languages are natural languages with a free word order (SVO), they do have parametric changes regarding the consituent parts of the sentence, particularly in the connoted constructions.

Introducción: La evidencia actual sobre la relación entre los estilos de vida y las principales problemáticas de salud mundial es amplia, dando cuenta del aumento en las cifras de comportamientos de riesgo y de sus impactos en la salud de la población. Objetivo: Identificar agrupaciones entre los jóvenes matriculados en una universidad privada de Cali, a partir de ocho dimensiones relacionadas con sus estilos de vida. Materiales y métodos: Se aplicó el Cuestionario de Estilos de Vida de Jóvenes Universitarios, que permitió clasificar las prácticas de los jóvenes en saludables y no saludables a 370 estudiantes con edades entre 18 y 25 años. Se utilizaron modelos de regresión para respuesta binaria y una combinación de métodos factoriales con análisis de conglomerados para obtener tipificación de estilos de vida. Se trabajó con ayuda de los paquetes Stats para los modelos de regresión y FactoClass para el análisis multivariado con el software R. Resultados: Fue posible establecer tres conformaciones tipológicas: 1) hombres sin pareja, que no trabajan, con prácticas no saludables en actividad física; 2) mujeres sin pareja, que no trabajan, con prácticas no saludables de actividad física y alto nivel de estrés; 3) mujeres sin pareja, que no trabajan, con prácticas no saludables de actividad física. Conclusiones: Las tipologías encontradas permitirán a la universidad realizar intervenciones focalizadas que consideren las características propias de diferentes tipos de jóvenes, logrando mejores resultados y optimizando los recursos disponibles.AbstractIntroduction: The current evidence on the relationship between lifestyles and the main health problems in the world is wide, taking into account the increase in the numbers of behaviors of risk and their impacts on the health of the population Objetive: The aim of the study was to describe life styles of private college youth from Cali, according to their practices in eight dimensions, and to identify clustering of them. Materials and methods: The study sample consisted of 370 youth with ages between 18 and 25 years, who answered the Lifestyle Questionnaire for University Students - CEVJU-R2, which classifies healthy and unhealthy practices. Regression models for binary response factor and a combination of cluster analysis methods were used. The stats packages for the regression models and FactoClass (10) for multivariate analysis with the R software were used. Results: With binary regression models and combination of multivariate methods, it was possible to find three clusters: 1) men, without couple, not working, with unhealthy physical activity practices; 2) women, without couple, not working, with unhealthy physical activity practices and high level of stress; and 3) women, without couple, not working, with unhealthy physical activity practices. Conclusions: Typologies found will allow the university to make targeted interventions that consider the characteristics of different types of youth, achieving better results and optimizing the available resources.
