#1-soc Sociological analysis of the indigenous people’s attitude towards immigrants and the changes they bring: the case of 23 European countries

Abstract: The purpose of the article is to conduct a sociological analysis of the attitude of indigenous citizens residing in some Eastern European countries to migrants and the influence they exert on the socio-economic situation in the country of arrival. Methods: A sociological study was carried out, covering a total sample of respondents amounting to 50,000 [...] Load More people from 23 European countries. Random or stratified random sampling techniques were applied. Data weighting was implemented using combined population and design weights. Results: Based on the 2016-2020 research, it was found that Hungary, the Czech Republic and Russia are countries with the most negative attitude towards immigrants and immigration; the most negative assessments of the changes brought by immigrants are common in these countries. Positive assessments are recorded in Iceland and Sweden. The Scandinavian countries (Iceland, Sweden and Finland) are most tolerant in this regard. The research revealed groups of factors that had the greatest influence on the formation of the indigenous population’s attitude towards immigrants: firstly, cultural factors (values and beliefs of the people living in the studied countries); secondly, economic factors (competition in the labor market, income level, GDP level, share of immigrants in the population); thirdly, socio-demographic factors (gender, age, educational level, type of settlement), and fourthly, contextual factors (religion, political orientation, mass media influence). Conclusions: The study of the influence of all of the above factors on the attitude towards immigrants in Europe revealed that the economic factor exerts the strongest influence. Scientific novelty: The conducted sociological and factor analysis made it possible to establish that the perception of immigrants by the indigenous inhabitants of several European countries is influenced by the specifics of the economy, historical characteristics, the intensity of immigration flows in each country, and the ethnic hierarchy of arriving immigrants. This allows the authors to assert that it is impossible to develop a common immigration policy for all European countries that considers all the reasons for anti-immigrant sentiments.

#25-psy Meaningful Life Tasks in the Context of the Development of Personal Characteristics

Abstract: Today, the process of socialization is accompanied by an instability of personal values and an uncertainty about life’s meaning and purpose. The problem of overcoming this psychological contradiction, against the need, possibility and necessity to live a meaningful life, is becoming increasingly important in the context of personal and social development. [...] Load More Therefore, researching psychological indicators of personal development is of special interest in this study. The aim of the paper is to empirically prove the interaction between personal identity and the ability to accomplish meaningful life tasks, based on a method of apperception. Characteristics of crucial life tasks, as well as contradictions affecting personality formation through socialization, were identified, and parameters around personality development and forms of meaningful life experiences were established. Analysis of these specifications helped clarify the definition of a meaningful life-state through a systematic framework of the subjective properties of personality development through socialization. Questionnaire methods, and psychodiagnostic techniques to ascertain personality characteristics, formed a sample of indices for empirical evaluation. This was to identify any correlation between a person's psychological state and their ability to perform meaningful life tasks. A representative sample of respondents included 142 women and 98 men aged 20–55 years. The authors of the study used the survey’s results to determine empirically qualitative parameters and patterns in the interaction of personal identity and efficacy to accomplish meaningful life tasks. Using a multifactor hierarchical regression model, the regularities and subordinations between personality development against the processes of acceptance, deviation and effectiveness in realizing a meaningful life were substantiated. The correspondence between a meaningful life and the presence and development of personal qualities was determined by the one-factor analysis of variance. The results can be applied practically as a part of the preventive, diagnostic, and rehabilitation practices of psychologists in various spheres.

#24-psy Prospects for the application of autobiographical data analysis in the study of personal life choices

Abstract: In human life, choice is a multidimensional psychological phenomenon. For many years, both national and foreign psychologists have devoted their works to the empirical study of choice. However, this concept continues to remain understudied, which is confirmed by the small number of extant empirical studies on choice and certain contradictions in terms [...] Load More of the approaches to its study. This paper aims to conceptually substantiate the prospects for the practical feasibility of analyzing autobiographical data while studying an individual’s life choices. The main research method adopted was the semi-structured interview, as it allows the creation of a more comfortable interviewing environment by providing the respondents with an opportunity to define, on their own, the situations that required them to make “life choices”; additionally, it facilitated a sufficiently profound reflection. In total, 44 respondents of different age groups, places of residence, professions, levels of education, and family status participated in the survey. The interview included 5–15 questions, which asked for a description of the situations in which the life choices were made and to determine their number, indicate significant moments in life, identify the peculiarities of these situations, etc. Thus, autobiographical data were obtained from the respondents relating to the situations demanding life choices and their impact on the life of the individual. The methods of frequency analysis and content analysis helped to empirically determine the following: (1) episodes of life choices (on average, 3 episodes); (2) age of the person while making a choice (26–45 years old for a majority of the respondents). Using the method of generalization, the authors of the paper systematized approaches to divide life episodes into “situations” and “storylines” as well as by life spheres (family, relationships, profession, place of life, finances, etc.). The content analysis method made it possible to determine the criteria for the respondents’ choice of episodes, as well as to form the patterns of the choices. As a result of the study different approaches to the representation and use of the set of autobiographical data concerning life choices in psychotherapy were grounded. The presented approach to data analysis allowed designating criteria and principles of selection of life choice episodes, to develop variants of categorization of the designated indicators, and to determine quantitative indicators characterizing and supplementing election patterns. The results received can be useful for psychotherapists, while also serve as a basis for refining the theoretical foundations of the problem of choice in a person’s life.

#8-soc Manifestations of youth social dependency in conditions of different levels of social welfare

Abstract: Permanent transformational processes provoked by fundamental changes in the situation of all social groups in modern society, and especially of young people, are responsible for significant difficulties in the process of life self-determination. The essence of this problem consists in the contradiction between the urgent need of young people to choose [...] Load More a status role and to acquire sustainable social positions. The social development of society as a whole depends on the status of young people and their image. Therefore, it is particularly important in this aspect to understand and define the current problems of modern youth. The purpose of this study was to systematize the problems of young people's social life, depending on the conditions of social welfare. With the help of the inductive generalization method, comparative characterization of qualitative social and economic conditions and social welfare of youth on the example of China, Russia, and Great Britain, as countries with different levels of development, has been implemented. With the use of the statistical data binning method, the main gender and age characteristics of the population and its structure in the countries under study for the period 1990-2019, depending on the type of social policy of the state, have been identified. The phenomenon of dependency as the main stereotype of youth behavior has been substantiated as a result of the modern social policy of general welfare. By conducting a sociological questionnaire of young people, the main problems of social character in each of the countries under study in the current conditions of the policy of general welfare have been identified. With the help of the expert evaluation method, the commonality of the phenomenon of social dependency inherent to young people in Russia, Great Britain, and China has been determined. At the same time, the fact of the existence of social dependency of young people is considered to be a negative consequence of the social policy of the state. As a rule, it is associated with poverty and is reduced to unilateral granting of social benefits by the state. The heterogeneous forms of its manifestation in the life of young people and the reasons for its emergence and popularization depending on the level of social welfare of young people have been revealed and argued. Different scales of its spreading, as well as content diversity of social dependency manifestation among young people as a separate social group have been determined. The positive and negative aspects of methods of the state social policy in the fighting against the phenomenon of dependency among young people in China, Great Britain, and Russia have been analyzed. The comparative characterization of the effectiveness of social policies in the countries under study has been conducted. The possibility of implementing best practices has been considered as well. The results of the study may be useful for the government sector in developing the mainstream of the government's social policy to work with such a socio-demographic group as young people.
