Agency, or subjectivity is an important concept in personality psychology, but this phenomenon is less studied in suicidology. During the adaptation of the M. Linehan inventory Reasons for Living we proposed to look at the inventory through the lens of this construct. The study had two samples: students, N=490 (341 females, aged 17—28 (19.3±1.2)), and suicidal patients N=146 (105 females, aged 16—48 (23.1±5.9)). The structure of the Russian version of the inventory was studied with the IRT-model, which showed that all items of the inventory agree acceptably with the model. But three items were excluded, as they didn’t satisfy the criterion of measured invariance. The indices of reliability ranged from .74 to .93 according to Cronbach’s α, and from .73 to .92 according to IRT-reliability. The analysis of construct validity showed that the most benign factors are the scales Survival and Coping Beliefs and Child-Related Concerns, which meet the criteria of inner motivation and regulation to the greatest extent, while the factor Fear of Suicide didn’t prove itself as a protective factor, as it correlated positively with the factors of suicidal risk. Factors Responsibility to Family and Moral Objections pertain to internal motivation, while Fear of Social Disapproval corresponds more to external regulation. Thus, the Reasons for Living inventory passed a successful adaptation and can be used for research purposes and in clinical practice, and indirectly allows the researcher to assess the agency of a respondent.
Objective – Increasing life expectancy leads to an increase in the mean age of the workforce. The aging workforce implies new challenges for management and human resources. Existing findings on relations between age and burnout are controversial and scarce. Also, the problem of burnout amongst library workers in Russia has received little attention from researchers. Methods – The studied sample consisted of 620 public librarians from 166 public libraries of different regions (the Moscow region, Yaroslavl, Chelyabinsk, Novosibirsk, Astrakhan, and Republic of Buryatia) of the Russian Federation, who completed a self-reported online survey. For measuring burnout, a new Burnout Assessment Tool was implemented. To examine the associations of interest, we used structural equation modeling with a group correction approach. In addition, library location, general self-efficacy, and length of employment at the current workplace were utilized as predictors. All statistical analysis was performed in R. Results – Findings confirmed the hypotheses partially and revealed negative links between exhaustion, mental distance, and cognitive control and age, while reduced emotional control did not relate to age. Urban librarians tended to demonstrate higher levels of mental distance and had more significant problems with emotional regulation than their rural counterparts. Also, the non-Moscow region librarians did not demonstrate correlations between age and reduced cognitive control. Moreover, they showed a positive link between age and reduced emotional control. Conclusion – The current paper confirmed some previous results on the negative relations between burnout symptoms and chronological age. The results suggest the existence of higher risks of burnout for younger library workers. Potential mechanisms underlying the resilience of older workers are discussed.

E-mail: avp.71@mail.ru В 2020 г. опубликованы результаты очередного этапа международного исследования финансовой грамотности в рамках программы PISA. Анализ сильных сторон и дефицитов российских учащихся дал возможность изучить взаимосвязь результатов по финансовой грамотности с комплексом различных факторов. По итогам регрессионного анализа установлено, что значимыми предикторами результатов тестирования финансовой грамотности являются как характеристики учащихся, так и свойства образовательной организации. В частности, выяснилось: при контроле социально-экономического статуса, некогнитивных факторов и характеристик атмосферы в образовательной организации баллы по финансовой грамотности у 15-летних девушек ниже, чем у юношей (b = –7,04, p < 0,05). Социально-экономический статус учащегося положительно связан с результатами по финансовой грамотности (b = 15,24, p < 0,01). С ними также тесно связан средний показатель социально-экономического статуса образовательной организации (b = 35,78, p < 0,01). Среди некогнитивных факторов значимую роль играют интерес к денежным вопросам (категориальная переменная) и уверенность при осуществлении финансовых операций (b = 7,95, p < 0,01). Негативное влияние на результаты тестирования оказывает поведение учителей, затрудняющее обучение (b = –4,72, p < 0,05). На основании результатов исследования предлагаются практические рекомендации по развитию финансовой грамотности учащихся, адресованные как педагогам, так и родителям.
