“…It is possible to draw an analogy between the results of compression in a language, i.e. the obtained contractions -peculiar codes of the expanded word combinations and the codes formed in the human head during the mental activity (Joopudi et al, 2018;de Leon & Kay, 2020). While analyzing the functioning of abbreviations and their complete analogues, that "the occurrence of both is possible only under conditions of the available stiff referential relations between the complete and contracted variants.…”

The objective of the research is to describe mental and verbal primary and secondary (modern) compressive transformations. Main research methods are represented by the descriptive and structural ones making it possible to demonstrate characteristic aspects of univerb- and composite-formation (including abbreviation) as the processes corresponding to the essence of verbal compression. A tendency to compensative processes in speech and language is represented by the formations capable of complete substituting of the analytical primary names of objects, signs, and actions of the reality. In other words, a compensative process implies, apart from its main task, – balancing of the number of verbal units, – contraction of sounding duration and writing form of those units, i.e., substitution of analytical, multicomponent, nominative formations for the synthetic, monocomponent ones; that means saving time and space as the means of information conveyance. That tendency originates in the Common Slavic period. Univerbs and abbreviations, including telescopisms, are real forms of nominative units of analytical representation (word combinations) and potential alternative forms of synthetic (verbal) nominative units as the same time.

“…Consequently, we can deduce that, for individuals who lack a sense of control, their compensatory control manifests itself in many ways. In addition to religious beliefs [ 26 ], consumption [ 48 ], and political attitudes [ 32 ], which have been studied by researchers, compensatory control is also reflected in artistic appreciation.…”

“…As a psychological strategy to overcome this anxiety, they will exhibit an increased need to feel the order and certainty of the external world, as compensation for their lack of perceived control. Consequently, many studies find that people with a lower sense of control seek out objective order and structure in many ways [ 30 , 32 ], as mentioned above. Based on these conclusions, we speculate that, as a form of music that disrupts people’s orderly experience, atonal music precisely violates the need for structure of individuals with a lower sense of control, and therefore may be more ostracized by them.…”

Research on the aesthetic experience of music has largely focused on tonal music, while relatively less is known about individuals’ differences in the aesthetic experience of atonal music. According to the compensatory control theory, we hypothesized that perceived personal control significantly and positively predicted individuals’ tendency to prefer atonal music, while the need for structure played a mediating role. The present research investigated who tends to prefer atonal music, and why. A sample of college students listened to atonal music and completed questionnaires on perceived personal control, the need for structure, and their aesthetic judgment of the music. Our analysis showed that individuals with higher perceived personal control exhibited a stronger tendency to prefer atonal music, compared with those who had lower perceived control; moreover, the need for structure played a mediating role between perceived control and aesthetic experience of atonal music. These results revealed which audience was suitable for atonal music and extended the explanatory scope of the compensatory control theory. The theoretical and practical implications and limitations of these findings are discussed.

Presentation of research scientists towards the study of the development potential of the individual and her professional identity; provide a description of the various types of self-determination, justifies the common and what distinguishes professional and personal identity. The authors describe a complex of research and assessment of the level of professional orientation of students and undergraduates of Plekhanov Russian University of Economics. The authors presented the author's vision of 3 blocks of psychotechnologies: teaching, developing and information and communication, the use of which in the educational process of the University, will increase the level of their professional orientation and identity. The empirical part shows the selection, methods and procedure of the process of changing professional orientation and identity, as well as the procedure for processing the data obtained. The article also presents the results of a psychodiagnostic study of professional self-determination and professional identity in students of Economics, direction, students of technical orientation in the field of IT technologies, students of psychology: after conducting classes using various psychotechnologies-the results in the group of IT students have not changed much, most students have a pronounced status of "achieved professional identity"; most psychology students have become more understanding of their professional activities-they are characterized by the status of "moratorium"; the vast majority of Economics students have shown a formed professional identity and a high level of professional readiness.
