Gender imbalance among social worker professionals is a potential problem in social service provision, and is indicative of social workers’ relatively low social prestige. The problem affects social worker professionals and service users globally. The dominant discourse on care, gender and gender imbalance (public perceptions on the profession, pay gaps and social positions) is deeply rooted in cultural traditions. In Hungary, a Soviet type emancipation and was present before the system change in 1989, strengthening women’s positions in the labor market and inviting them into practically all areas of work. At the same time the concept of care, connectedness and dialogue could not have a genuine and personal-level voice in these societies what has an impact on social workers’ and service users’ current positions. Authors, relying on Carol Gilligan’s theory on ethics of care, argue that care may have different manifestations but it is a common human orientation and responsibility. To study the gender aspects of social worker identity, authors employ Identity Structure Analysis, a unique method to explore identity issues, such as one’s or a social group’s evaluations, identifications and conflicted areas. Based on our results we can conclude that women social workers in Hungary have more core and less secondary profession-related constructs than men do. Further, they are more accepting about wounded healer-type transformations in the development of professional identity, and are less receptive to some elements of government rhetoric. At the same time, they value an academic degree in Social Work less than men do.

The aim of my research is to explore the Budapest Bike Mafia movement and to examine its operation, which formulated the vision of a tolerant, responsible society in which people act in a sustainable way to create dignified living conditions for those in need. Therefore, first of all, it is important to examine in what social environment the given organization is created, as well as all its characteristics. These include the patterns of its organization, the interpretation of the social problem it embraces, the efforts made to achieve the collective goals, the repertoire of the movement, the circle of participants, the symbols they use, and their communication. I believe the strength of a community is most evident in crisis situations, and our changing world poses a myriad of challenges to local society. Movements in this context can be considered litmus tests: their emergence not only reflects but also draws attention to the state of the given milieu. The ordinary history of the Bike Mafia is a great example to anyone of how we can do socially useful and good things. Philip Zimbardo’s research has already proven how average people can become monsters, or even heroes. In my presentation, I would like to introduce the movement I have researched through the story of these ordinary heroes.

The prevalence of suicidal ideation in young women might be linked to some distinguishable features that are strikingly common among them. Going further than the medical diagnosis of a certain mental disposition since teenagehood, this research tries to understand the importance of gender in relation to the presence of common predictors in their creative writing output. The corpus for study was based on selected written production by Amy Levy (1861-1889), Annemarie Schwarzenbach (1908-1942) and Alejandra Pizarnik (1936-1972). The authors were chosen as representative female writers marked by suicide attempts. Whether short fiction or poetry and having lived in different times and cultural backgrounds, the psyches of the women present in this research show astonishing resemblance. Similarities can be traced and identified regarding tabooed sexual orientation, maternity as a stigma, a constant fear of social disapproval, a sense of incompleteness and the inner dialogue around different voices of the individual. The findings support the view that suicide is gendered. Understanding the relevance of gender in suicide will help understand the underlying interpretations of women's suicidality in a wider perspective. This contemporary epidemiology needs to be clearly described and identified in order to be made visible and eradicated not by individual strive, but through social catharsis.

Nowadays all welfare states without exception must face the increasing level of poverty and social exclusion. The situation in post socialist states, where the transition deepened the instability of the economy, is even worse. Social security is at risk by the territorial manifestation of segregation not only for vulnerable groups but a broader part of the society. Post-socialist societies faced three different types of changes at the end of the 20th century. On the one hand, the transformation of totalitarian political structure and the redesign of the economy into a democracy or market economy, on the other hand, the growth of the service sector, which has ousted the dominance of industrial production, and, thirdly, integration from their isolated position into the global world economy. All of these have influenced the development of cities as spatial projections of societies. Most of the East-Central and Eastern European cities have been fighting for sustainable development for the last couple of decades and are trying to reposition themself to the changing regional and global environment. This paper aims to present the impacts that have affected cities in the regime-changing countries during the socio-economic transition and how these influenced the development or even the decline of urban functions compared to urbanization processes in other regions of the world.

For a discussion on anarchism, one encounters a branching taxonomy of versions of it, sprouting from the various overlappings and crosscutting intersectionalities with other ideologies. The logical structure of likeness leaves no room for equivocation: to see the like is to see the same in spite of, and through, the different. But the presupposition underlying it is that there is a difference. And this is precisely my goal, namely to show that, in spite of overlappings, anarchism is different from other ideologies and, first and foremost, to justify the unique way in which anarchist discourse surfaces, namely in metaphorical garments. The texts which will be analysed are R. L. Stevenson’s “Britain, a Garden Enclosed” and Hilaire Belloc’s “Love of England”. Detectable isotopies, repetitions of semes belonging to the same semantic field, the anarchist one, are manifest in Stevenson’s “Britain, a Garden Enclosed”, though entangled with radicalist upsurges, smouldering throughout the text and surfacing in a manner which is contrapuntal of anarchist avowals. The expectation to find recurrent elements, of the kind mentioned above is confirmed on perusal of Hilaire Belloc’s text, as well.

Assessing the impact of main factors on a given factor is important in various fields of psychological research. There are some methodological and statistical methods to tackle that problem. Recently, other methods and algorithms are being developed for this purpose. One of the methods is Fuzzy Cognitive Maps, which are recurrent neural network for modelling and simulations. The main advantage of this method is that it provides flexibility to model complex systems using causal relationships, thus allowing for what-if simulations. The key purpose of this paper is to introduce and apply this method in the Psychology field. More explicitly, this paper discusses this model in depth and applies it to a psychological well-being case study.

This study focused on how student leaders coming from different higher education institutions (HEIs) in the Philippines understand Holistic Development and Wellness based on their experiences and perspectives. Literature tells us about the clear role of HEIs in ensuring the holistic development and wellness of the students. It is part of their responsibility to create programs and policies that promote the development of students in different aspects. This responsibility is being shared among the members of the community like the administrators, teachers, and even with the students. Active student leaders are believed to play an active role in leading the implementation of programs and activities promoting holistic development and wellness. Given this, it is very crucial for them to understand the value of the two concepts as well as their role. This qualitative study utilized narrative inquiry as a method and approach in documenting and analyzing the student leaders’ understanding of holistic development and wellness. Their stories were captured after engaging in an interactive youth forum. Their narratives showed clear understanding of the concepts and regarded holistic development as being integrated with wellness that allows individuals reach full potential. Their experiences and perspectives as student leaders allowed them to propose possible contributions and set action plans to ensure holistic development and wellness of students in their respective institutions. This also allowed them to reflect on the support that they will be needing from the members of the school community.
