In this paper, we consider the theoretical framework for creating an advanced training course for professionals working in various organizations whose functional duties include activities aimed at managing conflict situations occurring within the organization. The article also considers such problem concepts as: essence and causes of conflicts, types of conflicts in the organization; organizational, psychological, sociological and cultural ways of managing conflicts in the organization. The proposed theoretical model of advanced professional training is constructed within the framework of the competence approach which, in this case, is based on the notion that a participant in the program should master a certain set of special competencies that include knowledge, skills and abilities necessary for the effective process management of various conflict situations.

The article is dedicated to the research of the problem of forming conflict management readiness of future border guard officers. The concept "conflict management readiness of future border guards" has been defined. The structure of conflict management readiness of a border guard officer has been determined, which consists of motivational, operational and predictive components. The main criteria for assessing the motivational component of conflict readiness are motivational and regulatory, for operational - cognitive and operational, for predictive component - communicative and prognostic. The study proves that formation of conflict management readiness of future border guard officers is effective if the educational process at a higher military educational institution encompasses the following pedagogical conditions: creation of a favorable socio-psychological climate for the development of the experience of constructive resolution of conflict situations; the use of incentive measures to develop cadets' motivation for constructive resolution of conflict situations; enrichment of the content of professional training of future border guard officers with special knowledge about the nature, structure, functions of conflicts and mechanisms for their prevention and resolution; gradual acquisition by cadets of knowledge and skills of conflict management; ensuring a high level of psychological and pedagogical competence of teaching staff and leaders of training units of higher military educational institutions. Based on the Sectoral Qualification Framework for border guarding in European Union and Common Core Curriculum for training European border guards was developed a curriculum of the training course "Conflict Management in a Border Guard Unit" at the National academy of the State Border Guard Service of Ukraine named after Bohdan Khmelnytskyi. The results of the pedagogical experiment showed effectiveness of the defined pedagogical conditions to form conflict management readiness of future border guard officers. The distribution of cadets by levels of conflict management readiness formation in experimental groups at the end of the forming experiment is characterized by a decrease in the number of cadets with a low level (from 48.81% to 21.01%), as well as an increase in the number of future officers with a high level of conflict management readiness formation (from 4,76% to 26,19%). As for the control group, there were less significant changes regarding the level of conflict management readiness formation.

The article summarizes the theoretical principles of defining the concept of «mechanism», «conflict management mechanism». The main types of conflicts according to the Law of Ukraine «On Civil Service» are clarified: official disputes and conflicts of interest – a situation in which the personal interest of a civil servant affects or may affect the objective performance of his duties and in which there is or may occur contradictions between the personal interest of the employee and the legitimate interests of citizens, organizations, society. The main types of conflict management mechanisms are identified: organizational, legal and socio-psychological, taking into account objective and subjective factors, which covers a system of parameters, sequential actions, a set of methods and measures of socio- psychological nature. The causes of conflict situations in the interaction of public authorities and the public are substantiated: objective (social, political, economic, ideological factors) and subjective (derived from objective). Conflict fields of contradictions that arise in the process of interaction are depicted: legislative principles, political sphere, personnel policy, undemocratic worldview of managers, economic competence. The analysis of the main conflict fields of contradictions of local governments of Poltava region is carried out. New, alternative methods of conflict resolution have been formed: competition, adaptation, compromise, avoidance, cooperation, their general characteristics have been determined. Officials were invited to use the open conversation technique in order to reach a compromise.

The method of visual presentation of educational information for solving problems of mathematics and informatics is effective for the development of algorithmic, logical and computational thinking of schoolchildren. Technical progress, informatization of education, the emergence of modern software for visualization of information change the activities of teachers who need to master new technologies of information visualization for use in the classroom and in work with gifted children. Visual models for presenting educational information and methods of their processing with the use of computer programs are also relevant in extracurricular activities, allowing to develop the intellectual abilities of schoolchildren. Teachers are required to teach children to create projects in which visibility is a necessary component and must be represented by an electronic product created using modern information visualization tools. The article proposes a variant of the advanced training course for teachers of mathematics and informatics on teaching methods for visualization of solving problems using graphs and the free software “Graphoanalyzator”. The relevance of the course is due to the need to form the competency to carry out targeted work with gifted children in the use of software for creating and processing graphs based on the graph visualization program “Graphoanalyzator”. The authors believe that the training of teachers on this course will contribute to the formation of their skills to solve problems of mathematical modeling in informatics and mathematics, to apply information technologies to solve pedagogical problems in the context of informatization of education.

The authors integrate theory developed in several disciplines to determine five cognitive processes through which industrial buyers can develop trust of a supplier firm and its salesperson. These processes provide a theoretical framework used to identify antecedents of trust. The authors also examine the impact of supplier firm and salesperson trust on a buying firm's current supplier choice and future purchase intentions. The theoretical model is tested on data collected from more than 200 purchasing managers. The authors find that several variables influence the development of supplier firm and salesperson trust. Trust of the supplier firm and trust of the salesperson (operating indirectly through supplier firm trust) influence a buyer's anticipated future interaction with the supplier. However, after controlling for previous experience and supplier performance, neither trust of the selling firm nor its salesperson influence the current supplier selection decision.

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to provide a unified theoretical framework that explains farm capital structure choice. Design/methodology/approach – The framework accommodates different credit access scenarios and heterogeneous risk profiles of borrowers. It recognizes that the costs of capital are endogenously determined, reflecting the degree of credit risk and accessibility to credit markets. Based on the proposed model and the comparative statics derived thereof, the paper empirically tests the impacts of different factors on capital structure choice. Findings – Based on the theoretical framework, the paper derived the impacts of different factors on capital structure choice using comparative statics. Results suggest that the potential determinants of capital structure have varying effects at different ranges of leverage. Empirical evidence supports the theoretical model. Originality/value – Despite all of previous work on various aspects of farm capital structure choice, a framework that encompasses each of the different assumptions and scenarios is still lacking. The theoretical model integrates credit risk models and accommodates endogenous cost of capital, providing a comprehensive framework for studying farm capital structure choice and its determinants. The results provide insights that could help policy makers and lenders develop effective instruments to manage, monitor, and influence the financial leverage of farms at different quantiles of debt ratio.

In legal documents of the Ministry of Education and Science of Ukraine, there is emphasized the need to find ways to improve the level of professional knowledge, skills, abilities and new forms of training in educational establishments, which, in its turn, necessitates the transformation of training strategy. The need to respond to dangerous natural, human-made, anthropogenic, epidemiological and social factors requires highly qualified professionals ready to work in extreme conditions. Therefore, the importance of filling existing gaps in the theory and practice of vocational education determines the need for conceptual justification, development and testing of an improved pedagogical system of civil security professionals’ advanced training. The paper considers the theoretical foundations of the organization of advanced training of specialists in civil security, summarizes the main problems of professional development within the institutions and educational establishments. The content and features of their professional training in order to ensure the safety of people in emergencies is analyzed as well. It is found out that the readiness of civil security specialists to carry out their professional activities is an individual feature that includes professional motives, a set of special knowledge, skills and abilities of civil security professionals, which in integration ensure their ability to perform professional tasks and provide their further professional development. The author outlines the conceptual provisions for improving the advanced training of civil security professionals in institutions and educational establishments for the formation of positive motives for educational activities, the appropriate level of professional competence and approaching the ultimate goals of education. The content of the concept of specialists in civil security advanced training is determined (relevant methodological approaches, didactic principles, goals, objectives, pedagogical conditions are outlined as well). The purpose of forming the concept of advanced training of civil security specialists in postgraduate education should be directed towards the individual needs for personal and professional growth, as well as to meet the needs of the state in highly qualified and professional specialists capable of responsible performing of the job functions related to solving problems in order to ensure the safety of life and activities of people. The proposed conceptual framework helps identify the main components of the advanced training system for civil security professionals, resolving a number of contradictions, the main of which is the contradiction between the public demand for highly qualified professionals prepared for the challenges of modern society and the current training system which at present does not fully meet these requirements.

Public-private collaborations can easily be disrupted when nascent conflicts are not addressed. These intersectoral conflicts may be associated with the resource exchanges necessary to achieve a shared objective, may be the result of goal divergence, or may involve both. This research utilizes a complementary theoretical approach to examine conflict management in two large-scale event collaborations, motorcycle rallies, that have been in operation for nineteen years. Framed by resource dependence, goal congruence, and conflict management theories the research examines the patterns of conflict and conflict management perceived by participants in these collaborations. The theoretical framework allowed us to address the complexities of aligning collaboration goals around the resource dependencies that lead to the formation of the collaborations. Our findings, which support quasi-formal conflict management, link this body of theories to the management of conflicts between collaborating organizations in a manner that, to our knowledge, has not been previously attempted.

The article explores the relationship between the incentives of parties to campaign on valence issues and the ideological proximity between one party and its competitors. Building from the existing literature, we provide a novel theoretical model that investigates this relationship in a two-dimensional multiparty system. Our theoretical argument is then tested focusing on the 2014 European electoral campaign in the five largest European countries, through an analysis of the messages posted by parties in their official Twitter accounts. Our results highlight an inverse relationship between a party’s distance from its neighbors and its likelihood to emphasize valence issues. However, as suggested in our theoretical framework, this effect is statistically significant only with respect to valence positive campaigning. Our findings have implications for the literature on valence competition, electoral campaigns, and social media.
