Analysis of possibilities for improving entrepreneurial behaviour of young people: Research results in Central Banat district

Research relevance: teaching the Epic of Manas is relevant in connection with formation of patriotic feelings among young people. Research objectives: according to results of survey, modern youth confidently believe that Kyrgyz people came from Altai, and Altai is indigenous homeland of Kyrgyz people. However, textbooks on Kyrgyz literature do not address the questions: where did the Kyrgyz come from to Altai, where the ancestors of the great Manas came from. Research materials and methods: the article provides interesting and substantiated materials that will help resolve some of the controversial issues of teaching the epic. Research results: the ways of teaching epos given by authors provide opportunities in formation of patriotic feelings among young people. Conclusions: in teaching, we need to expand the origin of Manas among our youth, and a civic idea that ancestors of Manas lived in Sary-Kol and Alai, and the Kyrgyz lived in this region before leaving for Altai.

Research Material

This study investigates functions of code-switching based on the model proposed by René Appel and Pieter Muysken. Code-switching is an interesting sociolinguistic phenomenon characteristic to bilingual and multilingual communities. It involves the use of different languages within the boundaries of a single sentence or between sentences in one specific domain or discourse. It is an individual language choice determined by such factors as the topic, the situation, the participants of a conversation, their interrelationship, emotions, and demonstration of one or more identities. On this basis, Appel and Muysken (2005) identified six functions of code-switching: referential, directive, expressive (related to identity), phatic (metaphorical), metalinguistic and poetic. This paper sets out to achieve several goals: (a) to find out which of these functions appear in the Facebook discourse of young people originated from Šalčininkai district, (b) to identify the main types of functions in girls’ and boys’ profiles, and (c) to study the frequency of the functions with regard to the variable of gender. The research material consists of 1 048 posts and comments published in 2017–2018 and obtained from 30 Facebook profiles. The dataset represents young people aged between 20 and 30 years, with Polish as their school language. Facebook posts and comments are investigated from a qualitative and quantitative perspective. The research results show that functionally code-switching is similar in both girls’ and boys’ Facebook discourse. On the profiles of both genders, the number of functions is identical, but the frequency of these functions varies. In the datasets of both genders, the most predominant function is directive, which appears when languages change depending on the language chosen by the interlocutor. This research could be informative for sociolinguists who investigate electronic discourse of young people from South East Lithuania and for those who focus on how environment influences the emergence of different linguistic codes on Facebook. The research could also stimulate greater interest of sociolinguists in the conversational features of residents in Šalčininkai district.

Introduction. The urgency of the problem of participatory interaction is due to the fact that the development of modern society cannot be imagined outside the concept of creating a space of equal opportunities. In this regard, the issues of participatory interaction in the system “people with disabilities – society” are in the focus of attention of specialists in various fields of knowledge. The research purpose was to identify the types of participatory interaction in society that are typical for people with disabilities. Materials and methods. The study was conducted in the Saratov Region of the Russian Federation (N=100). The sample included young people with disabilities aged 15-23. The author’s questionnaire “Degree of Participation Manifestation” was used as a diagnostic tool. The results were processed using the standard package of IBM SPSS Statistics 21 (two-stage cluster analysis). Research results. Four types of participatory interaction of people with disabilities were identified: actively cooperating (25%), moderately included (17%), non-initiating (29%), inertly accepting (29%) types. Features of participation are determined by the vector of participatory interaction, the modality of the life perspective and the activity of people with disabilities (the importance of predictors is equal to 1; 0.83 and 0.75, respectively). Discussion and conclusion. Research results showed that young people with disabilities are involved in participatory interaction to varying degrees. Moreover, the overwhelming majority of respondents consider participatory interaction as an important condition for the effective fulfillment of individual capacity and a full-quality life in society. In this regard, the author’s typology can be used in specialists’ practical activities when constructing a space of equal opportunities.

Este trabajo parte de una revisión general de la iniciativa empresarial de los jóvenes españoles para proponer un modelo sociocognitivo del comportamiento emprendedor y sus desencadenantes durante la etapa universitaria. En la validación de dicho modelo, se describen los resultados de un estudio de autoinforme llevado a cabo con una muestra representativa de 400 estudiantes de la Universidad de León. Los datos recabados fueron tratados estadísticamente a través de análisis factorial exploratorio y análisis multivariado de la varianza (MANOVA). Los resultados obtenidos permitieron identificar cinco componentes en el estudio de la conducta emprendedora de los encuestados, en términos de autoeficacia emprendedora, expectativas de resultados extrínsecos e intrínsecos, intereses emprende-dores y elección de carrera emprendedora. En general, los estudiantes de titulaciones Socio-Jurídicas y Técnicas tuvieron puntuaciones medias más altas en dichas dimensiones que sus iguales de otras ramas académicas. Las implicaciones de tales resultados para el diseño de programas académicos adaptados al EEES son discutidas.<br /><br /><br />This paper presents a general review of entrepreneurship in Spanish young people to propose a social cognitive model of entrepreneurial behaviour and its triggers in university contexts. To validate the model, we describe the results from a study carried out with a sample of 400 undergraduates at the University of León, in Spain. Data was analyzed by exploratory factor analysis and multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA). Findings identified five components in the study of participants’ entrepreneurial behaviour, particularly, self-efficacy, extrinsic and intrinsic outcome expectations, entrepreneurial interests and career choice. In general, students within Social and Technical degrees displayed higher mean scores in those variables than undergraduates in other academic areas. Implications of these results for the design of academic programmes adapted to the EHEA are discussed

This paper analyses approaches to involving young people in the processes of valuation, interpretation and utilization of local heritage to meet contemporary development challenges. The starting point is the finding that European development strategies highlight the various potentials of cultural heritage, but young people from western Slovenia hardly see any of these potentials. Moreover, the presented ethnographic research results show that young people are not very interested in heritage practices undertaken in their cities or villages. This paper’s results demonstrate how heritage may be introduced to young generations, how youth understand local heritage and its values, and what they think about voluntary activities in cultural fields.
