Legal framework for national identity policy: purpose, legal basis, main tasks and principles
The purpose of the article is to analyze the legislative framework of national identity policy as defined in the Law of Ukraine «On the Basic Principles of State Policy in the Field of Affirming Ukrainian National and Civil Identity» (hereinafter referred to as “the Law”). The results of the study show that unity around common national values, overcoming socio-cultural, linguistic and regional contradictions, declared in the Law as its purposes, are urgently important and currently feasible in Ukraine. A significant number of Ukrainian citizens who had been loyal to the ideas of the «russian world», have now realized that in practice, for the russian federation, the destruction of Ukrainian identity means the elimination of the Ukrainian people or their voluntary renunciation of their national identity and their own individuality with all the consequences that follow (the main consequence, according to the russian plan, should be the cessation of the very existence of the Ukrainian State). The scientific novelty of the study lies in the study of the legislative framework of the national identity policy. Based on the analysis of the Law, the author systematizes the principles of state national and civil identity policy, identifies its basic principles and urgent tasks, and studies the legal definitions of the concepts of «Ukrainian national identity» and «Ukrainian civil identity» in the context of an inclusive national identity doctrine. Conclusions. The author analyzes the legal basis of the national identity policy, as defined by the Law, the fundamentals of the public national and civil identity policy, its basic principles and urgent tasks, as well as outlines the ways of implementating the said policy in the public administration field. It is substantiated that unity in all its collective manifestations is of utmost importance for the Ukrainian society. It should be ensured by removing contradictions within the society (of sociocultural, linguistic, regional, etc., character) and by effectively implementing Ukraine's European and Euro-Atlantic integration policy.

Formation of an ecological worldview in the conditions of challenges and martial law and ecocide.
Introduction. In modern scientific discourse, there are two interconnected categories. Firstly, there is the ecologization of worldview, which involves focusing more attention on the current problems of human, societal, and environmental coexistence, while not necessarily creating a philosophically grounded model for resolving the ecological crisis and overcoming unequivocally negative phenomena such as ecocide. Secondly, there is the ecological worldview itself as the highest characteristic of personality, arising from its adaptation to the surrounding world and constituting a system of knowledge about the place of humans in relation to nature. The ecological worldview thus becomes the inner plan of action for humans, based on values, beliefs, convictions, ideas, judgments, and manifested in the active actions of the subject. The relevance of ecological issues is amplified by large-scale warfare, which not only brings a series of eco-catastrophes not only within the territory of Ukraine but also extends far beyond its borders. The article discusses the necessity of philosophical reflection on ways out of the contemporary ecological crisis through the inclusion of the ecological concept in a philosophically and anthropologically oriented paradigm driven by personalism. The goal of the research: formation of an ecological worldview in the conditions of challenges of martial law and ecocide. Methods. The methodology of the research: The methodological basis of the article includes behavioral, comparative, and systemic-structural methods of scientific knowledge. Scientific novelty: the elements of scientific novelty include, firstly, further deepened development of philosophical premises for the formation of an ecological worldview with signs of integrality; secondly, personally motivated search for a conscious path to overcome the contemporary ecological crisis; thirdly, phased formation of an ecological worldview of personality, which includes an increase in empathy towards the natural environment, understanding the possibilities of nature restoration due to a utilitarian approach to its resources. Conclusion, results: the formation of an ecological worldview directly depends on the development of both anthropocentric and ecocentric premises for the partnership between humans and nature, as well as their moral-ethical and axiological content. The differentiation of the concepts of "ecological worldview" and "ecologization of worldview" at the theoretical level contributes to the implementation of an effective model of cooperation between humanity and the environment in practice. The documentation of ecological crimes against nature in Ukraine resulting from the military invasion of the Russian Federation aims to draw the attention of the international community to these issues, as well as to develop effective mechanisms for mitigating the damage inflicted on nature and prevent the repetition of alarming scenarios of human-environment relations in the future.
Modern education system and intercultural communication
The article is devoted to the problem of intercultural communication, which is understood as communication between people who are representatives of different cultures and speak different languages. Intercultural communication appears as a special process of communication, which has its own specific characteristics and manifestations. A thorough analysis of intercultural communication shows that there is a difference between intra-cultural and intercultural communication, which has its own peculiarity, specificity, structure, etc. It is argued that one of the goals of the modern education system is to form intercultural competencies in the first place. The need for such knowledge, skills and communication skills is determined by the practical needs of real life. The processes of democratization of social life, globalization, openness and accessibility of the latest achievements of world culture allow a large number of people to learn a lot about the lifestyles and behavior of other nations. The development of intercultural competencies is one of the main goals of modern education. It is the education system that should take on the responsibility to rid people of outdated ethnocentric views, replacing them with new ones that are more in line with the realities of the modern open world. This should also be the focus of the policy of the modern Ukrainian state, which seeks to take its place in the European Union.
On universality of perception of movement and time in the artworks
The article examines the issue of perception of movement and time in works of fine art. The perception of works of art is not only related to perceptual processes and the cognitive sphere of a person, but is a personal and worldview issue, as it is related to the system of personality stereotypes - cognitive phenotypes formed in the process of life and professional experience. The conventional view on the perception of movement and its intensity in visual arts, which was considered as universal for a long time, was that the perception of movement from left to right is more natural and fast, and movement from right to left, respectively, is complicated, slow and less intense. These provisions became the basis for an experimental study of the perception of movement and time in works of art, in which two groups of respondents participated. The experimental group (N=38) consisted of people who are not closely familiar with the art and rules of composition arrangement. The control group (N=30) consisted of students professionally studying art history and visual arts. Both groups only included people whose first language had left to right writing. As experimental material, the subjects were offered to answer how they see the intensity of movement in paintings by famous artists. Each picture was presented in an original and a flipped image, where the movement was reflected in the opposite direction. The results of the study analyzes using the Kolmogorov-Smirnov λ statistical test, which demonstrates the presence or absence of regularities in the subjects' choice of picture numbers that correspond to forward or reverse movement in the picture. With the help of this test, a gender comparison of the features of perception of movement and time in works of art was also carried out. The results of the experimental study question the universality of the perception of movement and time in fine art and require verification in further research.
Hierarchy of identities In modern humanitarian discourse
The article examines the problems of terminological confusion in matters of identity and their impact on the social and political atmosphere in societies. The purpose of the article is the study of the modern discourse on the problem of identity, the analysis of filling the concept of identity with content, the construction of a semantic "chain" in the hierarchy of identities. The methods used in the article are the historical method, the systemic method, and discourse analysis. In the results and discussion, positions of the relationship of different types of identity are given. Thus, analyzing ethnic and national identity, where it is proven that ethnic identity has a socio-cultural nature, and a national-political-legal one. The regional and civilizational subsections emphasize that the concepts of regional and civilizational identity are a pair of bipolar categories that show a person's place in the time-space cultural and political continuum. When considering civic and political identity, their similarities and differences are emphasized, and various degrees of maturity of civic identity are described: normal, deformed, and deficient. The conclusions emphasize the importance of the right identity policy, which the state should conduct. The following chain in the hierarchy of identities is proposed: the first is individual, the second is regional, the third is ethnic, the fourth is national, and the fifth is civilizational. The relationship of identities is an ensemble in which each identity can be defined depending on the orientation of the individual.
Analysis of the representation of women in Ukrainian media content in the conditions of a full-scale war
The article deals with the problem of gender imbalance in the Ukrainian media. Despite the fact that the problem has resonance both in social practice and in scientific discourse, after two years of full-scale war, the situation regarding the balance of media content and representation of women remains complicated, has signs of regressive dynamics and requires careful research. The aim of the study is to analyze the peculiarities of the representation of women in the content of Ukrainian national and hyperlocal media in the conditions of a full-scale war. The main method is a comparative analysis of all-Ukrainian national and hyperlocal media’ monitoring data for the first quarter of 2024. Regular media monitoring shows that the domestic media publish materials with signs of sexism and gender stereotypes. Data analysis showed that the monitoring results have certain differences in quantitative and qualitative indicators. During the monitoring period, in national media, women were experts in 17% of materials, heroines – in 22.5%, in hyperlocal media – in 39.5% and 33.5% of materials, respectively. Despite certain differences in the data caused by different research approaches and methodologies, the results of both monitorings indicate a gender imbalance in the domestic media in favor of men, especially in the coverage of the topic of war; the national media landscape is characterized by an indirect reflection of gender inequality existing in society. This requires a thorough study of various aspects of this problem: social, historical, psychological, etc., and is a promising direction for further research.
The bi-dimensionality of post-traumatic growth models in the psychological rehabilitation of veterans of the russian-ukrainian war
The article analyzes the models and approaches of post-traumatic growth (PTG) used in the psychological rehabilitation of veterans. Post-traumatic growth (PTG) is a positive psychological change that occurs as a result of psychological processing of the experience of difficult life circumstances—models of PGD help to understand how people can find meaning and strength in their experiences of trauma. Several vital models are often used in the psychological rehabilitation of veterans. The analysis of the existing models of posttraumatic growth as an effective tool in the psychological rehabilitation of veterans of the Russian-Ukrainian war expands the vision of theoretical models of PGT. It enables professionals to expand the basis of psychological interventions in the rehabilitation of veterans, their transition from military and civilian life, and the adaptation of their own experience to family life. Psychological support for a veteran who has gone through severe combat operations and returned home with a sense of loss and helplessness requires a modern psychologist to be aware of their level of training and to master a multimodal approach to this activity. By applying one of the adapted models to the case of a veteran client, a psychologist can help them identify new development opportunities, find meaning in their experience and present life, strengthen ties with family and friends, and strengthen the spiritual foundations of their life. The article presents a model of PTZ for consideration: R.G. Tedeschi and L.G. Calhoun's functional-descriptive as the primary model; a person-centered model by S. Josef, a biopsychosocial model by M. Christopher, a psychological-philosophical model by R. Papadopoulos and others. The variations of coping strategies as models of coping are also considered. The author outlines several views on the possibilities of implementing the theory of coping in psychological support and the implementation of psychological rehabilitation of military personnel, veterans, combatants, etc.

In addition to the positive impacts on business, politics and society, there are some negative ones, such as cyberbullying, privacy issues and fake news. Mass media are used for social intervention to disseminate information and change social behavior. This is the prosocial effect of media. There is a clear link between watching violent videos in the media and the upward trend in violence. We observe aggression among friends, relatives and other people makes the viewer more prone to aggressive behavior People who watch a lot of TV tend to overestimate the amount of violence and crime that occurs in the world. Thus, it has been established that the media has a very large impact on changing the current and socio-psychological part of society.

Needs and problems of war veterans and defendants in ukraine under the conditions of marital state
In the article the issues and needs, which veterans and defenders of Ukraine face after they return to civil life, have been reviewed. In accordance with the results of sociological studies, which have recently been conducted in Ukraine, the majority of problems, faced by the veterans, are linked to the process of obtaining the status of combatant and/or the status of a person with disability caused by war. In the first place this is due to the increase in number of military servants and volunteers, who are entitled to this appropriate status as well as due to the increase of applications for the formalization of this status. A quite urgent issue is manifested by the difficulties with going through medical boards and that is linked to bureaucracy, a large number of documents, necessity to repeatedly re-process these documents because of inconsistency of document formats etc. Moreover, the veterans, who have returned from the area of combat operations, are in need of medical care, recovery and physical rehabilitation, professional psychological support. One of the problematic points is low awareness of military servants about social benefits and aids, guaranteed by the state as well as mechanisms of their reception; low awareness about support with employment and job search, the possibility of opening their own business, professional psychological support. At the moment the veterans are deep in thoughts about their further employment or have doubts that they will be able to work at all due to health issues, injuries. However, the employment of the veterans will become a topical issue for Ukraine in the future after the war ends. One of the issues that needs solving is the existence of specific stereotypes employers have towards the veterans (instable mental state, uncontrolled emotions, health conditions etc.) One of the solutions to the problems indicated is implementation of the mentorship (consultancy) institution for military servants in the territorial communities. Mentors (consultants) will inform and provide consultations on official status registration and possibilities of obtaining the benefits, guaranteed by the state, as well as socio-psychological and socio-economic services. Furthermore, military servants should receive mentorship support/consultations not only at the place of their stay after demobilization, but also at the place of their military service.

Training future veterinarians for the english professional communication by means of situa-tional tasks
The article examines the possibilities and effectiveness of using the method of solving professional situations in the process of preparing future doctors of veterinary medicine for professional English-language communication. The expediency of the formation of professional communication for future veterinarians is substantiated. The essence of foreign language professional communication, which is an integral component of the professional competence of a modern specialist, is clarified.

Actualization of professional training for future social workers to work with military personnel and their families
The article presents the results of an online survey conducted among students of the National University of Life and Environmental Sciences of Ukraine (NULES) regarding their awareness of the problems and needs of military personnel. The survey involved 585 respondents, all of whom were full-time students. The survey results indicate that the majority of students have military personnel/veterans/combatants in their close circle. According to the students, military personnel/combatants/veterans most often face psychological problems provoked by participation in combat operations. The most common problems for military personnel/combatants who are studying include the inability to combine education with service in the Armed Forces of Ukraine; lack of respect from others; psychological issues related to the war; lack of understanding and acceptance by others; and difficulties in adapting to civilian life. According to the students, the problems faced by military personnel/combatants who are studying should be addressed by the Ministry of Education and Science of Ukraine; the university rector; vice-rectors; public and charitable organizations, among others. An analysis of the curricula for students majoring in specialty 231 «Social Work» showed that only a few programs include an educational component that directly prepares them for psychosocial work with military personnel and their families, namely: «Socio-Psychological Counseling for Military Personnel and Their Families» (6 credits, bachelor's level, National University of Life and Environmental Sciences of Ukraine); «Social Work with Military Personnel and Their Families» (3 credits, bachelor's level, Lesya Ukrainka Volyn National University); «Military Social Work» (3 credits, master's level, National University of Kyiv-Mohyla Academy).
Content and structure of the concept «value outlook of students of socio-economic professions of life sciences universities»
The article defines the content and structure of the concept of "value worldview of students of socio-economic professions at life sciences universities". It is noted that a worldview is a set of views, assessments, principles that generalize the understanding of the world and the place (purpose) of a man in it. For a worldview, it is fundamental to transform knowledge into beliefs, lifestyles, and norms of behavior. It ensures the fulfilment of the most important functions in human life and forms the basis of life. A worldview is a mechanism for transforming knowledge and feelings into beliefs that influence behavior. A number of methods were used, including analysis and synthesis of approaches (configuration and synergetic). The author interprets the value worldview of students of socio-economic professions at life sciences universities as a systematic set of ideas, assessments, attitudes that provide a holistic vision of the world around them, their place in it, their own life position and their corresponding actions. The structure of the worldview is outlined by: experience, on the basis of which the world perception is formed as the basis of the worldview; knowledge, on the basis of which the world understanding is formed; purpose; values (happiness, love, truth, virtue, beauty, freedom, etc.), which are the basis of beliefs, ideals of a person. The author grounds that the set of values determines the content and structure of the worldview. It includes: a system of axiological knowledge; value views and beliefs that determine the motives of students' behavior; value ideals that lead to the development of the individual as an active subject of society; criteria for value assessment of the world around them. The author emphasizes on the possibility of presenting the structure of the value worldview of students of socio-economic professions at life sciences universities as a set of objective (knowledge) and subjective (beliefs, ideals) elements, where each of them has a very specific functional purpose. Attention is drawn to the dependence of students' value worldview by the combination of intellectual and mental components with sensory and emotional ones. Therefore, it contains an incentive to act, which makes it convincing. It is manifested at the following levels of perfection (maturity) –the world perception, world awareness, world understanding. The author sees the prospect of further scientific research in generalizing the national and foreign experience of forming the value worldview of students of socio-economic professions at life sciences universities, defining the methodological foundations of this process.

It is emphasized that with the emergence of the states of the Ancient East, ancient thinkers emphasized that a true leader knows truth and falsehood, teaches his subjects and leads them from benevolent motives. In the days of Antiquity, it was believed that there will always be intelligent and knowledgeable people on the rowing waves, and happiness can be achieved if kings and lords begin to philosophize nobly and persistently. It is argued that in the context of the Roman pedagogical tradition, an important component of the content of training leaders was the formation of oratorical skills. It is emphasized that during the Middle Ages, attention was paid to the formation of spiritual qualities, moral skills, the leader's faith in God and his observance of God's Commandments. At the same time, it is emphasized that during the Renaissance there was a turn to the principles and ideals of the ancient cultural heritage, and in the New Age and the Age of Enlightenment, feudal relations, the church and absolutism were condemned, and the ideas of education and philanthropism were promoted in the education of leaders. It is noted that in modern times, thinkers searched for new approaches, concepts for the formation of service leadership qualities in line with reformist pedagogy, the movement of a new school, which was created by the elite to train industry managers. At the same time, it is noted that in Independent Ukraine, significant attention was paid to the formation of leadership qualities in the fields of pedagogy, psychology, leadership, management, history, and social psychology.
Formation of rhetorical culture of students during postgraduatedistance learning
Стаття присвячена визначенню та обгрунтуванню педагогічних умов формування риторичної культури здобувачів освіти під час дистанційного навчання в аспірантурі. Звертається увага на актуальність формування риторичної культури аспіранта як складової його професійної культури. Автором порівнюються та аналізуються підходи сучасних вчених щодо розуміння «риторичної культури». Висловлюється позиція щодо риторики як науки про застосування оптимальних способів підготовки та виголошення ораторської промови з метою певного впливу на аудиторію. Характеризуються категорії логос, етос, пафос, топос, через які реалізується риторика як мистецтво переконання. Описується дистанційне навчання. Наводяться різні підходи до його визначення. Як його суттєва характеристика вказується взаємодія під час навчання, коли час на самостійну роботу з матеріалом, консультаційні заходи тощо виділяється окремо. До труднощів дистанційного навчання віднесено такі: потребу у надійному технічному оснащенні (як переконує практика, не завжди є можливість забезпечити цю потребу, особливо – з боку здобувачів освіти); потребу у високому рівні педагогічної майстерності педагогів, що містить два аспекти: перший, технічний, цифрова грамотність педагогів, другий, морально-психологічний, здатність працювати в умовах відсутності емоційної та психологічної комунікації зі здобувачами. Визначено та обґрунтовано такі педагогічні умови формування риторичної культури здобувачів освіти під час дистанційного навчання в аспірантурі: спрямованість змісту освітнього процесу в аспірантурі на формування риторичної культури здобувачів освіти; використання інтерактивних методів (риторичних технік та вправ, рольових ігор) під час дистанційного навчання в аспірантурі; організаційне та технічне забезпечення оптимального розподілу у форматі змішаного навчання (поєднання традиційної очної та дистанційної форми), підтримання наочності в освітньому процесі; урахування психологічних механізмів формування риторичної культури здобувачів освіти під час дистанційного навчання в аспірантурі. Реалізація цих умов передбачає здійснення педагогічних заходів із використанням відповідних форм, методів та засобів. Автором звертається увага на те, що ефективними для формування риторичної культури аспірантів під час дистанційного навчання формами навчання є індивідуальні (консультації, самостійна робота, індивідуальні завдання, творчі проекти, виконання рефератів і науково-дослідних робіт) та групові (лекції, семінари, практикуми, тренінги, дискусії, конкурси, тематичні зустрічі).
The Essence of the Concept «Bioethical Views of Future Veterinary Students»
The article analyzes the key concepts of the study, including «bioethics», «bioethical principles», «bioethical rules», and «bioethical views of future veterinary students». Despite the fact that the concept of «bioethics» was introduced into scientific discourse as early as 1971, it is still insufficiently covered in domestic scientific literature. The analysis and interpretation of this concept allow it to be defined as a science that studies the moral foundations of human coexistence with all living beings, including animals. The study identifies the main bioethical principles in the context of the researched problem, such as: life as the highest value; love and care for all forms of life; justice; autonomy; responsibility towards nature; and humane treatment of animals. The article highlights the basic rules that a bioethical personality should follow (according to G. Hubenko), namely: 1) I recognize the need for urgent action in a world that is in crisis; 2) I accept the fact that the future survival and development of humanity largely depend on today's plans and actions; 3) I acknowledge the uniqueness of each individual; 4) I accept the inevitability of some human suffering; 5) I affirm my reverence for life. The analysis and generalization of the research results make it possible to define the concept of «Bioethical views of future veterinary students» as a system of knowledge about bioethical principles, rules, and values formed in students during their professional training, which expresses their attitude towards all living beings and will be implemented in future practice to resolve ethical dilemmas related to animal life and health.
Requirements of the modern international labor market for specialists in electrical engineering specialties
The article reveals the essence, leading functions and models of the modern international labor market, which in the context of its demand made it possible to reveal the special significance of professional training of highly qualified specialists for the electrical industry. According to the reasoned statement that electrical engineers work in an area of high responsibility, the author motivates the need for the polytechnic education system to shift the emphasis from obtaining the appropriate qualification to the formation of professionalism, as this is critical to ensuring the quality and reliability of labor tasks in the electrical field. Based on the occupational program of an electrical engineer as a comprehensive tool for a comprehensive description of the requirements for professional and personal qualities of a specialist, the nomenclature of his/her interdisciplinary knowledge, skills and abilities is determined, which is the basis for the successful performance of tasks within a specific functional labor complex with its managerial, organizational and technical components. With an emphasis on the broad semantics of the category "technician", the author emphasizes the special significance of the technical dexterity of a modern electrical engineer, which in the context of socio-technological development and digitalization acquires a transfer context. It has been proved that it is precisely because of this circumstance that the demand of the modern international labor market is mainly focused on the transferable skills of an electrical technician, that is, his ability to perform a wide range of specialized activities that go beyond basic professional functions. In view of this, the paradigm of continuing education of electrical engineering specialists must necessarily operate with the latest requirements for mastering the set of necessary and sufficient multidisciplinary knowledge, forming flexible thinking and the ability to successfully solve complex problems based on creativity and readiness to cooperate with other people and artificial intelligence systems.

Discipline «project management» as an elective for future professional junior bachelors in agricultural specialties
The article analyzes modern definitions of "project management" given by Ukrainian and foreign scientists. Based on these, the characteristics of project activities are presented and motivation for studying and applying project activities is formed, particularly for students pursuing the educational degree of "Professional Junior Bachelor". It is noted that project management has stages of initiation, planning, execution, monitoring, and completion, and the motivations include satisfying the individual's need for free choice of activity, high interest of executors, focus on results and quality assurance of achieved goals, adherence to implementation deadlines, compliance with the project execution plan, use of only limited resources provided, customer satisfaction from high-quality implementation, and the opportunity for employee training. The competencies that a student of a professional pre-higher education institution in agriculture should acquire are studied, and those competencies that can be formed in the process of studying the discipline "Project Management" are identified. The educational and professional programs for training professional junior bachelors in the specialties "201 Agronomy", "073 Management", "208 Agroengineering" in the 2023-2024 academic year in a number of professional agricultural pre-higher education institutions were analyzed, and it was found that they lack the discipline "Project Management". The necessity of introducing the discipline "Project Management" into the educational process of training professional junior bachelors in agricultural specialties is substantiated, as an elective course, taking into account the basic principles of forming elective disciplines, which usually include ensuring students' right to choose educational disciplines, creating an individual educational trajectory, and the correspondence of elective disciplines to labor market requirements and student interests.
