This paper continues the cycle of interdisciplinary studies that feature a new technology of audiovisual induction of altered states of consciousness. The technology is based on a combination of models, methods, and approaches of psychology, mathematics, and computer science. The research objective was to prove that the technology can induce relaxation states. The authors conducted two experiments with a specific configuration of synchronized fractal and musical sequences. The study involved 47 people, who were presented with audiovisual stimulation. Before and after the procedure, the panelists were presented with two sets of questionnaires to define their mental and emotional state. The results demonstrated significant negative changes on the demobilizing components: mental anxiety or resentment (N), mental depression and exhaustion (D) and depressed mood (S). The data analysis confirmed the hypothesis: the method can induce states of relaxation. The data obtained are can be used in further experiments, e.g. to reveal creative potential by means of audiovisual stimulation.

This article explores the creative leadership potential among the junior students majoring in humanities. The relevance of studying creative leadership in the era of transfessionalism is substantiated. Description is given to the current state of studying the concept of creative leadership in global science. The author also delineates the survey results on the creative leadership potential of junior students majoring in humanities, which involved 101 students from different universities of Tomsk. The research employed the method of modeling communicative worlds, method of psycho-semantic graph, method of “Myers-Briggs Creative Personality Type”, scalogram-based communicability profile, social network analysis (SNA methodology). The scientific novelty is defined by the fact that modern science features a fairly small number of empirical research dedicated to creative leadership. The acquired data was analyzed using the factor analysis. The main result of this research consists in identification of 10 factors that considerably contribute to the creative leadership potential and form its factor structure. At the forefront of the structure of creative leadership potential among the students majoring in humanities is the positive perception of their partners. It is also concluded that the structure of creative leadership potential is quite complex and contradictory. The obtained results would be used in development of psychological support programs for the students to fulfill their creative leadership potential.

This research is part of a large-scale project aimed at creating a factor model of creative leadership potential. The present article features the effect of major and gender of students on their creative leadership potential. The authors identified groups of variables that characterize creative leadership potential. The study was based on the holodynamic and trans-communicative paradigm. The following range of scientific methods made it possible to determine the characteristics of creative leadership potential: the method of modeling communicative worlds, the method of psychosemantic graph, Myers-Briggs Type Indicator, sociability scale profile, and social network analysis. The study involved 189 students of humanities (101) and science (88). The results showed the specificity of personal creative characteristics and parameters of the communicative world of the participants. Gender proved insignificant for future research. Students that majored in humanities appeared both more original and more conformal. They tended to find unusual negative points in positive topics and problems. Science students worked better with specific information and facts. They were good at evaluating alternatives and planning.
