This paper compares phraseological units denoting watercraft in Bulgarian and Greek, by considering their forms and semantics. This analysis allows linguistic and ethno-psycholinguistic conclusions to be drawn about these two Balkan nations. For phraseologisms with the same head words in both languages, complete and partial similarities are observed. However, a far greater number of phraseological units are found in Greek alone, which can be explained by the fact that, in comparison to Bulgaria, sailing is a common occupation in Greece. A semantic classification reveals that most phraseologisms are significantly personally oriented; in addition, it offers insight into specific features of the world views of Greeks and Bulgarians.

The relevance of this research is determined by the fact that, until now, the issues concerning the study of prognostic competence in speech activity of young schoolchildren with sensory disorders have not been sufficiently studied. This determines the purpose of this study: to identify the main directions of development of speech-communicative function of prognostic competence in children of primary school age with sensory impairments with consideration of the identified specific features. The fundamental method of the study is the analysis of researches studying the speech-communicative skills of primary school age children in the structure of prognostic competence as a condition for their successful socialization, the method of experiment, quantitative and qualitative analysis of the obtained data with the use of mathematical statistics. The experiment involved 43 younger schoolchildren with sensory impairments and 50 younger schoolchildren with no disorders. The study was carried out in educational institutions for children with disabilities and for normotypical children located in Kazan. The research used the methodology called “The ability to predict in situations of potential or real violation of a social norm” which was developed by academic staff of the department of defectology and clinical psychology of K(VR)FU. The experiment revealed that speech-communication function in younger schoolchildren with sensory impairments is formed insufficiently. The answers of respondents are characterized by minimal verbalization of the forecasts in the form of a simple non-extended monosyllabic sentence or in the form of listing of different verbs, be the poverty of speech-language means, by the absence of other participants in the forecasts, and by the use of verbs of present or past tenses. In addition, respondents had low values in almost all spheres of relations, namely in the area of attitudes toward learning, relationships with peers, in the sphere of communication with adults, in virtual communication, in the spheres of attitude towards illness and relationships in the family. These data indicate low level of formation of the speech-communicative function of predictive competence in younger schoolchildren with visual and hearing disorders. The analysis of data helped to develop the program of correctional work on the development of the speech-communicative function of predictive competence in younger schoolchildren with sensory disorders. The program uses prognostic tasks presented in forms for recording the answers in the form of pictures. All tasks are divided into 6 areas, which turn out to be the most significant ones for younger schoolchildren with sensory disorders.

The relevance of the research is caused by a problem of representation of mental states of a personality in the structure of subjective experience. Successful identification of mental states is determined by the clarity of the images of mental states stored in a person’s experience. The article is aimed at studying the image of the mental state of field-dependent and fieldindependent personalities in “past-present-future” time continuum. The data obtained from the study was statistically processed; content analysis and structural and comparative analysis were used, which allowed to detect the dynamics of intensity of mental states image, the degree of structure organization and consistency. The study revealed that mental states of field-dependent subjects are represented in subjective experience with a more complex structure that persists in the foreseeable future. The structure of the state image of field-independent subjects is less organized and is being destroyed in perspective, i.e. there is no clarity in assessing the states in the expected future. The materials of this article can be useful for more successful interaction with different people, for the process of regulation and control of the course of mental states, as well as for predicting mental states in various situations.

The thesis I want to raise, or I would rather like to suggest, as a subject of discussion, without rushing into a solid argument in its favor which is inspired intuitively, probably is the result of years of work on epistemological issues, using the sociological perspective for this purpose. In the search for fundamental basis of science and sociology in particular, I am increasingly convinced, that the idea of sociology as a fundamental science could be one of the sequels of epistemology. This probably sounds like a cliché as “any science is epistemology”, but I dare say that there are reasons, background, and it may be said, that the first step was made by the philosophy of positivism and the evolution and formation of sociology as an independent science, but also continued in the tradition of the sociology of knowledge.

The article aims to present one typology of the numerous theories of globalization, based on the following criteria: (1) genetic (typologisation of position of “start” and the stages of the globalization process); (2) convergent-divergent (typologisation form of the perspective of understanding that globalization leads to homogenization or heterogenization of the worldwide achieved integrity); (3) evaluation (typologisation form of globalization’s assessment); (4) philosophical and anthropological (typologisation form of notions of anthropological consequences from globalization).

In the rapidly changing learning landscape of modern globalization emerging distance learning technologies constitute valuable innovative educational methods that create new possibilities for learning and knowledge. A key feature of the material is the visual representation of information both in print and digital form. The resolution of an image is constructed by (re-) composing the multiple parameters affecting communication. The image is the message in the process. Our motivation for investigating the dynamics of visual culture in relation to the educational material used within e-learning springs from: (a) the specific nature of the information that represents the educational material that is organized and applied in the context of distance learning, and (b) the absence of visual culture in almost all levels of education, which is full of visual representations both in print and digital forms. The structure of the paper develops around two thematic pillars: (a) presenting criteria that examine the appropriateness of visual material of MOOC courses, (b) examination (through bibliographical review) of key visual elements and techniques necessary for the acquisition of skills and the development of visual intelligence through the subject of “History of Art”. In all cases of visual stimuli and all levels of visual intelligence, meaning exists not only in individual representational data and symbolic and verbal material but also in the composing forces coexisting with the actual visual description.

Due to its influence on behavior, the burn-out syndrome among nurses and doctors is an actual problem of modern management of medical employees. This study was conducted among 189 nurses and doctors and its aim was to examine the influence of burn-out syndrome on their behavior in conflict situations. The levels of burn-out syndrome and the most common type of behavior in conflict situations in nurses and doctors were studied. The types of behavior in conflict situations could be “competing”, “collaborating”, “compromising”, “avoiding” and “accommodating”, which were measured with the Bulgarian version of The Thomas-Kilmann Conflict Mode Instrument (TKI). Establishing the level of burn-out among nurses and doctors is necessary for purposeful therapeutic work aimed at developing work-related stress tolerance and for better control of behavior in conflict situations. The presented results show a higher “reduced personal accomplishment” for doctors compared to nurses.

The Islamic terrorism has unleashed the migration wave to Europe from the Middle East countries. On 30 June 2014 the extremist organization the “Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant” (ISIS or ISIL) has announced the establishment of a caliphate. With this act its leaders not only has shocked the region and the world, but also they challenged the contemporary Islamic theologians. As a matter of fact, “khalifa” Abu Bakar al-Baghdadi triggered the most important “takfiri”, apostatizing trend within Muslim world. They formed the dogmatic case which brought to the surface the group as a real entity which has long struggled leadership among the other terrorist formations. After the announcement of the caliphate ISIL, it abolished “Iraq and the Levant” from its name and became only the “Islamic state”, and it does claiming their uniqueness to their competitors. This terrorist organization has had a long history in Iraq. It has appeared on the map of extremist actors of still living former dictator Saddam Hussein. Its “birth date” is about 2000 and its creator is the Jordanian Abu Musaab Zarqawi.

EU information policy emerged only in the mid-1980s as a set of mutually related strands and policy decisions. Two levels of information policy are essentially developed. One is related to the information society and its infrastructure, and the other to access to information. Apart from the focus of the information industry, ranging from telecommunications, the Internet and e-services, the problem of information policy and the global information society is related to macro, micro and meso-economic levels. Here is the link with the sustainable development strategy. Sustainable development is seen not only in the narrow sense of the word as an element of environmental and regional policies, but also in the possible broader view – as a principle of responsible governance for achieving social cohesion, as one of the possibilities for the EU to consolidate internally with aid from the information policy, despite strong centrifugal trends in European integration. At a time when the EU is moving into a new phase of political integration, there is a need for an open debate on the finality, structure and political scope of reunification. From what trends will prevail – decentralization or vice versa – the consolidation depends on the future of the world and its development.

A flute is a “keyed woodwind instrument consisting of a cylindrical tube which is stopped at one end, and which has a side hole over which air is blown to produce the tone”, as defined by the Merriam-Webster dictionary. Unfortunately, this definition is only true of modern flutes. The first flutes were simple pieces of bone that had been fashioned with drilled holes. These prehistoric flutes have been discovered as artifacts in many places around the world. However, through time keys were added to expand the note range of the instrument, and to improve the intonation of the notes that were played. These improvements were added slowly, but as interest in the instrument grew, so did new ideas about its technical properties. In this paper I discuss how the flute progresses through time from a simple bone to the metal-keyed instruments of
