Regional choreographic schools in Ukraine: the socio-cultural and pedagogical aspects

It is very important to preserve and develop folk choreographic culture in the modern socio-cultural space research of regional dance traditions. This is especially true for those territories, which are now only fragmentarily represented in Ukrainian art history. The aim of this study was to identify the main trends and establish the peculiarities of socio-cultural and pedagogical aspects of regional dance schools in Ukraine. This cross-sectional study was carried out on a sample of 264 scientific and pedagogical employees engaged in scientific and teaching activities in the field of choreography at higher education institutions in Ukraine, namely Kyiv University of Culture, Kyiv National University of Culture and Arts (KNUCA), Volyn National University named after Lesya Ukrainka, and Kyiv Municipal Academy of Variety and Circus Arts. While writing this article, we also analyzed the works of international researchers. A questionnaire consisting of 4 questions was used for data collection and the analytical methods were descriptive statistics (percentage). According to the study results, the features of the formation of choreographic schools in different geographical and cultural regions of Ukraine highlight promising areas of their development from the perspective of scholars of choreography engaged in scientific and teaching activities in higher education institutions. In conclusion, Ukrainian regional choreography is a creative and multidimensional phenomenon. In each region of Ukraine, folk ethnography is characterized by its authentic features and way of performance due to geographical, historical, social, political, economic, and other factors

Linguistic and semiotic representation of pessimism in The Happy Prince and Other Tales by Oscar Wilde

This paper focuses on the indirect means of verbalising the phenomenon of pessimism in the texts of literary fairy tales from the point of view of linguosemiotics. The study aims to identify the linguistic and semiotic means that create the pessimistic discourse of Oscar Wilde's collection The Happy Prince and Other Tales. Pessimistic discourse is treated as a person-centred type of discourse, represented by a complex system of means that reveals the speaker's pessimistic worldview and is characterised by its aims, style, and tenor. The study employs semantic and lingo-semiotic analysis of the ontological phenomenon of pessimism in fictional texts, using content analysis to ensure the reliability and validity of the results. Furthermore, the four-stage methodological procedure used in this research allows us to define a general literary context of the analysed works, select the research material, determine the frequency characteristics of the symbols as lingo-semiotic means that create the pessimistic tonality and discourse of Oscar Wilde's collection The Happy Prince and Other Tales. The research identifies the symbols of nature (seasons, flowers), the material world (colours, everyday objects), distance and death (as an ontological category) as verbal triggers of the author's pessimism implemented in the narrative through the contextual markers of basic, adjacent and related qualitative features of pessimism reflecting its social, psychological and cognitive aspects. The study contributes to the development of linguistic semiotics, psycholinguistics and discourse studies by enriching the knowledge of idiostyles. The proposed methodology of the given research is considered promising within the framework of different genres.  Disclosure Statement No potential conflict of interest was reported by the authors. * Corresponding author: Alla Pavliuk, 0000-0002-6037-4819 [email protected]

Psychological and Legal Aspects of Verification and Detection of Lies during Polygraph Examination

The article examines the features of verification and detection of lies and the definition of their features in the process of polygraph examination. Detection of lies is associated with the experience of certain emotions, the mechanisms of functioning of which ensure the organization of the relationship between true and false answers during testing using the technical means of computer polygraph and are accompanied by physiological reactions. In a computerized polygraph test, a test taker analyzes and evaluates the risks of concealing false information or the possibility of confirming it and exposing it as false. The effectiveness of information concealment depends on its ability to reveal and control a specific picture of one’s own physiological reactions when answering the questions, which are then evaluated by a polygraph examiner. Instrumental detection during polygraph testing should aim to obtain information, avoiding ambiguity, doubt, assumptions, and subjective association with an adequate reflection of reality. Undoubtedly, there is information that characterizes certain actions performed by a person, which he/she interprets and submits in the form of a true or false answer to a question evaluated by a polygraph examiner. The effectiveness of methods of detection and verification of lies depends on the qualification of the polygraph specialist, taking into account the individual characteristics of each test case, as well as the subtleties and details of the event being studied, features of psychophysiological reactions of the person being examined, namely the type of nervous system, external and internal factors that significantly influence the result of the examination. The conducted empirical research made it possible to describe the features of the group of people in whom lies were detected during polygraph testing. Such individuals showed high rates of adaptability, but low rates of neuropsychological stability. Among the personal qualities a high level of manifestation on such scales as "reactive aggression", "spontaneous aggression", "irritability", "shyness", "openness", "extraversion-introversion" can be distinguished.</p

Emotional Intelligence in the Context of Linguodidactics and Linguocultural Studies

In the article, for the first time in Eastern European linguodidactics, an original method of using students' emotional intelligence data and their personal linguoculture for a new structuring of didactic material in the study of foreign languages (on the example of Ukrainian as a foreign language) is offered.The authors aimed to make theoretical generalizations and conclusions about the main subject of the research, to determine the types of emotional-intellectual relation of students to a foreign language in the classes of the higher educational institutions and to model the general methodological scheme on the basis of sociological and functional-semantic data.The used methods can be clearly divided into theoretical, sociological and modeling, which made it possible to demonstrate a new approach to the thematic presentation of didactic material on the example of the concept HAPPY and determine the degree of flexibility of students' emotional intelligence in foreign language classes.First of all, the international significance of the article lies in the first attempt of the synthesis of the theory of emotional intelligence and linguoculturology (theory of concepts) in the optimization of the foreign language didactics; secondly, the authors, with the help of associative experiment and functional-field thematic structuring, offered a new model of presenting the lexical material of foreign language teaching for the first time.</p

Займенникові прислівники в англійському юридичному дискурсі в українському перекладі: семантичні, морфологічні та синтаксичні ознаки

The paper studies specific features of English pronominal pronouns and their translation. The results of the research show that the compounds in question are the archaic feature of the English legalese, they appeared in the Old English period, the same time as the adverbs here and there emerged, and some of them came into use in the Middle English time. The pronominal character of pronominal adverbs (PAs) is clearly seen through the lens of Ukrainian translation where they are mostly rendered by means of pronouns or noun phrases. Since Ukrainian does not have direct equivalents for English PAs, we can see ten different means used to translate them into Ukrainian.Manuscript received 14.05.2020У статті розглянуто особливості англійських займенникових прислівників та їхній переклад українською мовою. Результати дослідження показали, що ці складні лексеми є архаїзмами, що характерні для англійської юридичної мови, деякі з них з’явились у давньоанглійський період у той самий час, коли з’явились прислівники here, there, інші – у середньоанглійський період.Метою цієї роботи є дослідити подвійну природу займенникових прислівників, що мають у своєму складі елементи here-/there-, з погляду їхніх семантичних, морфологічних та синтаксичних особливостей.Методи. Речення, які містять займенникові прислівники, що вивчаються, було вибрано з текстів методом суцільної вибірки. Для доведення займенникового характеру цих лексем використовували метод трансформаційного аналізу. Компонентний аналіз застосовано для вивчення семантики обох компонентів складних слів, описовий метод – для розкриття природи і походження цього мовного явища.Результати. Займенникові прислівники з компонентом here- / there набули займенникових ознак у давньоанглійський період, хоча позначення «міста» є первинним як для ‘here’, так і для ‘there’, тобто прислівникова природа є первинною. В юридичній англійській мові доказом того, що компоненти ‘here’ і ‘there’ мають займенникові ознаки, є той факт, що вони заміняють назву документа (‘here’) або іменник/іменникове словосполучення (‘there’). Ці займенникові прислівники можуть функціонувати у реченні як означення і додаток, що зазвичай є функціями номінативних частин мовлення (іменників, займенників, прикметників). Крім того, займенниковий характер цих утворень можна простежити через український переклад, де вони передаються зазвичай за допомогою займенників або іменникових словосполучень. Оскільки в українській мові немає прямих відповідників займенникових прислівників, можна спостерігати вживання десяти різних способів їх перекладу українською мовою.Обговорення. Після аналізу вживання займенникових прислівників у регламентах Європейської комісії та їх перекладів українською мовою, було зроблено висновки щодо використання цього архаїзму в документах ЄС, а також виявлено всі способи передання їх засобами української мови. Найчастіше для перекладу англійських займенникових прислівників використовують присвійні займенники, що пояснюється тим, що thereof вживається більше за інші займенникові прислівники, а прийменник of є позначенням родового (присвійного) відмінку в англійській мові. Цей прийменник використовують для позначення присвійних відносин між об’єктами, а займенниковий прислівник має значення: «of this, of that, of these, of those», тобто виражає родовий відмінок у значенні присвійності. В українській мові таке значення мають присвійні займенники й іменники у родовому відмінку.Матеріал надійшов 14.05.202

The issue of studying and implementing the artistic education principles is fundamental in modern education, because the development of a methodological model is based on the certain principles of teaching. The author notes that the scholars have substantiated the need to use the achievements of folk art during the upbringing of the future generation (P. Blonskyi, H. Vashchenko, H. Vynohradov, T. Demianchuk, M. Kostrytsa, Yu. Rudenko, S. Rusova, O. Smoliak, M. Stelmakhovych, V. Sukhomlynskyi, etc.). The consistent adherence to the principles of general pedagogical and musical education contributes to the development of the musical education process for primary schoolchildren. The most important didactic principles of general primary education at school should be considered: the principle of integrity, continuity and promising, natural correspondence, awareness and efficiency of knowledge, activating cognitive activity, independence and individualization, the principle of visibility. From the standpoint of the systematic approach, the basic principles of artistic learning of students are analyzed. The principles of formation of the basis of younger schoolchildren’s national culture, namely: the principle of artistic self-identification with their nation, are determined; the principle of tolerance and mutual respect for intercultural artistic communications; the principle of personal cultivation; the principle of intensification of artistic and national development. The principles of forming the basics of primary schoolchildren’s national culture focus on the aesthetic values of folk art, the development of needs in it, which becomes an initial step of immersion of the child in the environment of aesthetic phenomena. The consistent acquaintance of the students with the logic of the formation and development of the main components of the nature of folk art (naturalness, spontaneity, collectivity, vivid imagery, tradition, etc.) promotes a deeper perception, understanding and formation of the spirituality of the younger generation

Environmental Friendliness of a Person’s Musical Space as a Factor of Personality Disharmony Prevention

The article discusses correlations between a person’s musical space and the degree of personality harmony. The sound environment of a person always influences personality formation and his/her behaviour. By studying a person's musical preferences, a degree of harmony of his/her personality development can be understood. The article's purpose is to determine the correlation of musical preferences with the existence of personality disharmony and types of his/her relationships with others, as well as to determine the specifics of the impact of music on personality features of people with special needs. The authors started from the assumption that, depending on his/her personality traits, a person prefers certain patterns of musical discourse. The empirical study aimed to study relations of such personality features that testify the personality disharmony and are manifested in non-viable relationships with others. The personality manifestations in communications and educational activities were also analyzed. It was determined that music therapy plays an important role in the formation of their personalities for people with special needs. The correlation of personality traits with the perception of music has shown that persons with the external locus of control choose musical discourses that, as for their psychological content, reflect uncertainty, amorphy of world perception or its simplicity, primitiveness; on the contrary, persons with the internal locus of control choose energetic, purposeful music. Persons with the disharmonious type of relationships choose music whose psychological and emotional content reflects the next personality traits: possible aggressive behaviour; a life course that does not demand serious decisions, irresponsibility, and reluctance to resolve complex situations
