Adaptation of the Russian version of "the sport imagery questionnaire

The results of the psychometric analysis of the suitability of the Russian version of the "The Sport Imagery Questionnaire" ("Questionnaire using imagery in sport") are presented. Powered meaningful comparison of the results in the Russian-speaking, Spanish and Finnish samples of athletes is obtained. Patterns of use of the sport imageries by Russian-speaking athletes in accordance with the specific age, gender, specific to that particular sport are identified. The possibility of use of presented version of the questionnaire for further research is measured

Didactic principles of university information educational systems designing

© Authors. The attention of all parts of perspective education system should be focused on promising information technologies - a catalyst for development. Presenting information as a new resource for society development, the authors determine the didactic basis for designing effective information educational systems. Universal didactic principles for information educational systems design have been developed, the details of which for discipline and for the subject adapt them to the university organizational and pedagogical conditions. The pedagogical management functions in modern educational conditions that determine the students' motivation and stimulation initiation mechanism for mastering a knowledge new system to develop the individual's creative abilities, self-development are revealed. The paper is intended for researchers, teachers, and specialists in the field of information educational technologies

Composition of the argillite sequence, continental slope of the Sea of Japan

The argillite sequence located at the base of the sedimentary cover on the continental slope of the Sea of Japan was studied by petrographic, palynological, and X-ray diffraction methods. Two spores-pollen complexes were distinguished in it: the Late Oligocene reflecting cooling and the Early Miocene corresponding to initiated warming. Data obtained indicate that the sequence is composed of terrigenous silty-clayey sediments that accumulated in shallow coastal-marine settings. The global sea-level rise at the Early-Middle Miocene transition, combined with regional tectonic processes, determined basin's deepening, owing to which the argillite sequence was overlain by a thick layer of Middle Miocene diatomaceous-clayey sediments. Due to tectonic movement along existing faults in the terminal Late Miocene, the argillite sequence occurring initially at depths of at least 400-500 m was locally exhumed to the basin bottom
