The relevance of the study of the social activity of young people presented in the article in the context of the subject-activity approach is determined by the need for psychological justification of programs meant to implement it in the significant areas of public life. The purpose of the study is to identify the subject and activity characteristics that determine the social activity of the students, depending on the type of its orientation. The study was conducted on a sample of young people aged 15-25 years ( n = 229). The two types of social activity were identified: the one aimed at the realization of personal aspirations and interests (“for own benefit”) and the one aimed at the achievement of socially significant goals (“for others’ benefit”). The subject characteristics of these types of activity were studied using the personality self-determination test by B. Sheldon as modified by E.N. Osin, the questionnaire for the study of the subjectivity structure by E.N. Volkova and I.A. Seregina, the methodology “The Level of Development of Personality Subjectivity” by M.A. Schukina. The activity self-organization questionnaire by E.Yu. Mandrikova and the author’s questionnaire, the reliability of which is confirmed by the results of positional analysis, were used to study the activity characteristics. It is shown that the social activity of young people is largely due to activity characteristics. The social activity aimed “for own benefit” is more highly determined by the subjective characteristics of the person, compared to the activity aimed “for others’ benefit”. The universal determinants of the social activity of students, which do not depend on the types of its orientation and have a common predictive potential, are revealed. These include the level characteristic of the personality’s subjectivity “creative - standard” and the characteristics of activity - “initia- tive in activity”, “solution of socially-oriented tasks” and “self-organization (through external means)”. In the structure of the activity the factors “activity content”, “social responsibility” and “satisfaction with the result of activity” were also attributed to the sustainably expressed determinants of the social activity aimed “for own benefit”. The activity characteristics “striving for success, self-affirmation”, “striving for confidence, self-improvement”, “satisfying own needs”, “complying with social requirements”, “insistence”, “focusing on the present”, as well as the characteristic of the non-situational subjectivity of the personality “freedom of choice and responsibility for it” became the determinants of activity aimed “for others’ benefit”.

Abstract.Starting from the assumption that self-presentation is a ubiquitous feature of social behavior, this paper analyzes intergroup relations and processes of social influence in a perspective of self-presentation. Starting from the classical definition of self-presentation of Jones and Pittman (1982), we expose the direct and indirect strategies of self-presentation. Then, we consider the implications of self-presentation that, in addition to being used in order to transmit a positive image of the subject, enable the construction and maintenance of a positive social identity, satisfying self-esteem needs. We argue that the reasons for self-presentation mediate or determine how individuals respond to external influences, and that the risk of breaking ingroup norms and public expectations is self-presentational. We analyze the conflict between conforming to a source of influence and remain independent in a self-presentational perspective. Given this perspective, much of human behavior can be understood as the result of attempts to, rather than seeking to, creates a desired image in others.Keywords: Self-presentation; Intergroup relations; Social influence.Resumo.Partindo da assunção que a autoapresentação é uma característica omnipresente do comportamento social, o presente artigo analisa as relações intergrupais e os processos de influência social numa perspetiva de autoapresentação. Partindo da definição clássica de autoapresentação de Jones e Pittman (1982), expomos as estratégias diretas e indiretas de autoapresentação. Seguidamente atendemos às implicações das autoapresentações que, para além de serem utilizadas com o fim de transmitir uma imagem positiva do indivíduo, possibilitam a construção e manutenção de uma identidade social positiva, satisfazendo necessidades de autoestima. Defendemos que os motivos de autoapresentação determinam ou medeiam o modo como os indivíduos respondem a influências externas e que o risco de transgredir normas endogrupais ou expectativas públicas é autoapresentacional. Analisámos o conflito entre conformar-se a uma fonte de influência e manter-se independente numa perspetiva autoapresentacional. Atendendo a esta perspetiva, muito do comportamento humano pode ser compreendido como o resultado de tentativas de, mais do que procurar, criar uma imagem desejada nos outros.Palavras-chave: Autoapresentação; Relações intergrupais; Influência social.

The article analyzes the understanding of self-determination in L. I. Bozhovich’s works, authors present the theoretical context in which self-determination was considered in her researches (development of personality as the mastering of the behavior, self-determination as a free choice). It is shown that three approaches to the study of self-determination in Russian psychology were created on the basis of L.I. Bozhovich’s approach to the study of self-determination: self-determination as self-comprehension, as an orientation in the system of social values and as the development of subjectivity. It is shown that L. I. Bozhovich’s approach to the study of subjectivity is closest to the subject-centered approach in contemporary Russian psychology. The stages of personality development, outlined in L.I. Bozhovich’s works are considered as the stages of subjectivity formation. Authors are planning to create educational practices for adolescents based on their typical activities and aimed to the development of personal reflection as a basis of self-cognition and self-determination.

The research aims to consider the possibilities of the axiological approach as a philosophical and pedagogical strategy from the standpoint of the philosophical concept of M. Buber's dialogue. The adaptation of the axiological approach to the pedagogical realities of vocational education is presented by the author through the prism of ideas, views on the category of “value” with evidence of the existence of special value-semantic formations. From these perspectives, the possibility of formalizing values in the form of “axiospheres” seems to be an obvious fact, which makes it possible to determine their belonging and purpose in vocational education. The notion of a dialogue, in which value orientations acquire an essential personal characteristic, dictates the need to revise the technologies for training and retraining specialists. For this purpose, the prospects of using the concept of “axiospheres” in the initiation of personality development and improvement of the technology of professional training are outlined.

Abstract. The importance of various trait dimensions explaining positive global self-esteem has been the subject of numerous studies. While some have provided support for the importance of agency, others have highlighted the importance of communion. This discrepancy can be explained, if one takes into account that people define and value their self both in individual and in collective terms. Two studies ( N = 367 and N = 263) examined the extent to which competence (an aspect of agency), morality, and sociability (the aspects of communion) promote high self-esteem at the individual and the collective level. In both studies, competence was the strongest predictor of self-esteem at the individual level, whereas morality was the strongest predictor of self-esteem at the collective level.

Over Time

Intoxication as a ground to set aside a contract is not something that has proved to be easy for the law to regulate. This is perhaps not very surprising. Intoxication is a temporary condition of varying degrees of magnitude. Its presence does however raise questions of contractual autonomy and individual responsibility. Alcohol consumption is a common social activity and perceptions of intoxication and especially alcoholism have changed over time. Roman law is surprisingly quiet on the subject. In modern times the rules about intoxicated contracting in Scottish and English law is very similar. Rather more interestingly the law in these two jurisdictions has reached the current position in slightly different ways. This history can be traced through English Equity, the works of the Scottish Institutional writers, the rise of the Will Theory, and all leavened with a dose of judicial pragmatism.
