The K. Thomas - R. Kilmann questionnaire: the vulnerabilities of the diagnostic tool

The results of the analysis of the text of the K. Thomas - R. Kilmann questionnaire are presented. It is shown that the formulation of many items is not specific for their unambiguous assignment to the prescribed scales. In some formulations, the context of the mode of behavior that is proposed to be chosen is not clearly defined. In many of the pairs of statements, the options are difficult to distinguish from each other or are not strictly alternative. The directions of work for overcoming the identified vulnerabilities of the questionnaire are proposed.

Communication with young people through normatively fixed dialogue institutions in the regions of Russia

The study of the regional legislation of 85 constituent entities of the Russian Federation was carried out by the author in order to identify the normatively fixed channels of communication between the state and youth at the regional level, which could make it possible through formalized institutions to carry out dialogue interaction, stimulate the desire of young people to participate in the life of society, participate in the development of the agenda in the constituent entity of Russia. As a result, the author comes to the conclusion that the created youth governments, youth parliaments, youth public chambers and other similar institutions in the regions are not a sufficient channel for full-fledged communication with young people. Formalized platforms involve rather loyal youth in a dialogue with the authorities, leaving behind those whose opinion, attitude to the political, economic, and social decisions taken by the authorities is sometimes quite critical.

Debatable aspects of constructing construction of corpus delicti in the sphere of economic activity (Chapter 22 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation)

The article analyzes the features of the regulation of crimes in the field of economic activity with formal, material and truncated structures of the compositions in the 1996 Criminal Code of the Russian Federation. The author notes that the presence in Chapter 22 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation of a significant number of criminal-legal prohibitions containing a formal type of structure of a crime is criticized in the doctrine of criminal law and does not always meet the rules of criminalization of a socially dangerous act and the needs of law enforcement practice. The absence of signs characterizing the economic consequences (damage, avoidance of losses, etc.) in many dispositions with a formal structure does not allow us to speak of the presence of the level of social danger necessary for criminalization of the illegal behavior of economic entities. A number of crimes, in our opinion, should be legally transferred to the category of administrative offenses. The author notes that when designing complex alternative compositions, one should carefully select the necessary features with a homogeneous nature and level of public danger. Such alternative signs should be used in a situation where it is impossible to use abstract linguistic terms covering all the signs listed in the disposition. You should also avoid including false signs in alternative constructions of dispositions: repetitive, unreasonable criminologically, intersecting with other elements of crime, etc.

Metacognitive processes and qualities as determinants of general management styles

The article presents theoretical and empirical materials that reveal the specifics of the main parameters of the metacognitive sphere of personality as determinants of general management styles. It is shown that one of the most constructive means of such disclosure is to identify the relationship between management styles as one of the central constructs of management psychology, on the one hand, and the main metacognitive parameters (procedural, strategic and other characteristics), on the other. The regularities of the influence of metacognitive factors on the main general management styles are established. It is shown that they are characterized by different values of the indexes of integration (coherence), differentiation (divergence) and the index of general organization of the metacognitive sphere. The provisions are formulated according to which general management styles have a structural, rather than analytical determination in relation to those metacognitive factors on the basis of which they are formed.
