The first personal monograph, On the Lyrical Triptych of Maša Haľamová (Life and Work), by co-authors Ivica Hajdučeková and Iveta Bónová, presents the results of archival research and analytical-interpretative insights into the structure of poetic texts. Life events at key points (V znamení osmičiek, Domov na brehu jazera, V ruchu redakčnej práce, Fáza po Mladých letách) are reconstructed based on autobiographical memories, archival documents, personal correspondence, as well as unpublished or published articles and interviews. An intriguing perspective on the author´s work is offered by self-referential notes and a reconstruction of opinions on her poetics and the artistic value of her poetry from the years 1928 – 2017, as expressed by contemporary and modern literary critics. The reconstruction of the genesis of the poem Dar (Gift), which relates to her connections with A. Kostolný and E.B. Lukáč, revealed the underpinnings of poetic inspiration and confirmed the productivity of archival research and exegetical methods. The analytical-interpretative insight into lyrical triptych Dar – Červený mak – Smrť tvoju žijem, realized through a spectrum of differentiated spirituality and the method of hermeneutic reading with an emphasis on the function of polyvocality, demonstrated that meta-empirical reality is shaped through natural imagery and the function of allusion. Across the three poetry collections, the lyrical parable and the process of spiritualization or spiritual growth of the lyrical subject are depicted, emblemized by the red poppy, blooming limber pine, and flowering moss. In conjunction with the analysis of the rhythmic-melodic structure of free yet phonetically organized verse – utilizing not only the folkloric inspirations of folk songs and ballads but also the religious tradition of spiritual hymns, prayers, and psalms – which confirmed that the poet´s sense and sensitivity for the „colourfulness“ of sounds and the „melodiousness“ of tones contributed to the architectural formation of the final form. This form is inseparably infused with the meta-empirical dimension of spirituality (eisos – eidos – Logos).

For a non-governmental organization to be successful, it must focus, among other things, on its main goal of spreading its vision and mission to another area. It can achieve success by increasing its visibility and raising awareness about its activities in society, sending a clear message, and maintaining transparency.

The monograph deals with specific areas in which non-profit NGOs are active, i.e. marketing and fundraising. Both these areas are of key importance for the NGO’s success, therefore they require particular attention. It is well known that NGOs lack proper support in Slovakia and their funding is insufficient given the demand for their services. NGOs therefore search for multiple sources of funding and use marketing as a tool.

The monograph explains the importance of NGOs in the non-profit sector and justifies the tools they employ when navigating the commercial space.

The textbook Basic Concepts of Morphology is an introduction to morphology intended for undergraduate students of British and American Studies and students of English (and French/German) for European Institutions and Economy and other philology studies in Slovakia. The textbook gradually guides students from key terms to concepts and from there to theoretically more challenging phenomena. The textbook is primarily for Slovak students of English, which explains that the majority of the examples presented are English. As the textbook progresses, data from Slovak, German, French, Hungarian and sometimes from slightly more exotic languages are given. It is expected that such an approach will prepare students for carrying out morphological analysis independently.

The development of this bilingual coursebook evolved as part of project KEGA Nr. 020UPJŠ-4/2013 headed by prof. PhDr. Ján Gbúr, CSc., and emerged from earlier research which had successfully analysed realist and modernist Slovak literature from a gender perspective. Based on initial interpretations which drew from philosophical, sociological and historiographical approaches, we were able to anticipate the issues which could be raised in other texts and thus establish a hypothesis for the subsequent literaryscientific research. Our research has also been influenced by the continually evolving nature of gender studies, and we have therefore decided to adopt a somewhat unusual approach in this coursebook and briefly examine some contemporary texts thereby creating an intentional shift in our timeline. The modern works of Z.Kepplová and U. Kovalyk have raised a number of interesting issues, and a study of the interwar work of M. Urban reveals further interpretations on the basis of gender. After this brief overview, we return to the main focus of the study: gender approaches to Slovak literature of the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

The study focuses on the complexity of male-female relationships in the work of both male and female authors of realist and modernist literature at the end of the 19th and the beginning of the 20th century. Works by the founding generation of realism and late realism were analysed, with particular attention being paid to the fiction of M. Kukučín, J. Čajak, J. G. Tajovský, J. Jesenský, E. M. Šoltésová, T. Vansová, Ľ. Podjavorinská and B. S. Timrava. The works of H. Gregorová and Ľ. Groeblová were also studied as prime examples of Slovak literary modernism. 

We hope that this bilingual coursebook will allow realist and modernist Slovak fiction, and the Slovak national literary tradition in general, to receive wider critical renown beyond the borders of Slovakia and also to demonstrate its place in contemporary literary theory.

Vzdelávací systém (školstvo) je jedným z najúčinnejších nástrojov formovania mladej generácie v každej vyspelej spoločnosti. V školách sa utvára nielen vzdelanostná báza nutná pre plnenie požiadaviek v hospodárstve a v spoločenskej sfére, ale taktiež sa formuje národná a ideová identita každého člena spoločnosti. Škola má určujúci podiel na tvorbe pozitívnych hodnôt, ale môže byť aj živnou pôdou xenofóbie a rasistických postojov.

Nezastupiteľnú úlohu má škola vo vytváraní národného povedomia, stotožnenia sa s vlastným národom, jeho históriou, hrdinskými činmi predkov a so zmyslom existencie.

Po rozpade Rakúsko-Uhorska došlo v strednej Európe k fundamentálnym geopolitickým zmenám. Jednou z nich bol vznik Československa, štátu založeného na radikálne odlišných princípoch než bolo predvojnové Uhorsko. Zakladatelia Československej republiky (ČSR), osobnosti, ktoré rozhodujúcim spôsobom určili charakter politického zriadenia v novovzniknutej republike, nepatrili k privilegovaným vrstvám predošlého režimu. Na rozdiel od Uhorska, kde takmer bez výnimky kontrolovala politickú moc šľachta, elitu v Československu tvorili muži, ktorí boli radikálnymi kritikmi Rakúsko-Uhorska. Výstižným príkladom bola najvplyvnejšia osobnosť medzivojnového Československa, prezident Tomáš Garrigue Masaryk. Napriek svojmu pôvodu Masaryk bol Čechmi i Slovákmi vnímaný ako zakladateľ štátu, legendárna postava, ktorá politickým a spoločenským vplyvom ďaleko presahovala právomoci prezidentského úradu. Protikladom ku konzervatívnemu Uhorsku bolo Československo štátom, kde najmä v prvých rokoch dominovali ľavicové idey. Nemenej hlboké boli zmeny v politickej a národnostnej rovine. Československo sa stalo parlamentnou demokraciou, v rámci ktorej pôsobili politické zoskupenia organizované na ideovom, konfesionálnom i etnickom princípe. Mocenským, politickým a spoločenským centrom republiky sa stal tzv. československý národ, súručenstvo Čechov a Slovákov. Česi a Slováci, vnímaní ako „vetvy“ jednotného národného celku, boli definovaní ako „štátotvorný národ“, ipso facto, oprávnení k určujúcej úlohe v štáte. Československá republika sa takto stala národným štátom, napriek skutočnosti, že obyvateľstvo tvorili aj početné komunity Nemcov a Maďarov. Na Slovensku v dôsledku maďarizácie, t. j. transformácie mnohonárodnostného Uhorska na etnicky homogénny štát, nezohrávala inteligencia tak významnú úlohu ako tomu bolo v Čechách. Štátne orgány preto úsilie zacielili predovšetkým na „poslovenčenie“ 5 Slovenska. Významná, vari najvýznamnejšia úloha v uvedenom procese pripadala výstavbe školského systému, ktorý by dokázal vychovávať mladú generáciu v súlade s ideologickými cieľmi a hospodárskymi potrebami republiky.

Despite the fact that a psychologist may have a good moral background, it is necessary for everyone to know and act in accordance with ethical professional principles in order not to harm the clients with whom they work in the course of psychological practice. There are many case studies in the professional literature that describe serious situations of violations of psychological ethics. On the one hand, they depict conscious professional misconduct or ignorance. On the other hand, they have contributed to the introduction of even legal standards for the ethical behavior of psychologists as professionals. Completion of a course or training in the topic of psychological ethics is required by several professional associations abroad, especially in the last years of undergraduate studies. Their goal is to supervise the quality and preparation of future psychologists. The university textbook Do I Have It or Not: Ethics in Psychological Practice provides a summary of essential information on the ethics of conducting psychological practice, the boundaries of the relationship with the client, and the rules of confidentiality. The goal is not for the student, as a future psychologist, to know ethical rules word for word, but for them to be sufficiently ethically sensitive.

The seventh volume of Doctoral Miscellanea was created in this year's specific research and educational situation, which predetermined its character as a non-conference collection.

The previous two editions continued the tradition of domestic scientific events (initially seminars, later conferences) at the Autumn School of Doctoral Students of the Faculty of Arts at UPJŠ in Košice, thereby creating an opportunity to verify more comprehensive scientific conclusions before a diverse audience, not only of experienced educators but also of researchers from their own generation. This phase was narrowed down to communication between the supervisor/reviewer and the doctoral student during the publication's creation. However, this did not automatically mean a less intense dialogue. Many contributions underwent interesting changes and variations.

The resulting studies reflect not only the degree of development of dissertation projects but often also the interest of young scientists in specific issues that have the potential for independent research. After all, they chose our domestic collection for testing their ideas.

Pozornosť, venovaná problematike čínskeho pôsobenia, je vysoko relevantná. Kreovanie pozitívnej reputácie v zahraničí je legitímnym nástrojom každého štátu v snahe generovať vplyv. Čínska ľudová republika bola v tomto smere od úvodu tisícročia veľmi úspešná, vďaka čomu sa v medzinárodnom systéme začala dostávať do pozícií, na ktoré si z hľadiska vlastnej histórie, veľkosti a potenciálu legitímne nárokuje. Príklady zo zahraničia zároveň upozorňujú na skutočnosť, že ani čínska zahraničná politika by nemala byť prijímaná nekriticky a zasluhuje si obozretný prístup a uvážlivú diskusiu. To celé pri rešpektovaní nielen čínskej osobitosti, ale aj zohľadnení reálií veľmocenského súboja viditeľného v úvode 21. storočia. V tomto kontexte nemožno abstrahovať od detailného pohľadu na čínsku mäkkú moc, ako jedného z kľúčových nástrojov generovania vplyvu vo svete. Jej poznanie a pochopenie je nevyhnutným predpokladom pre relevantné vyhodnocovanie praktík a motivácií zahraničnej politiky Číny, no zároveň môže poslúžiť ako usmernenie v snahe vytvoriť adekvátny prístup voči tejto navrátivšej globálnej veľmoci.

The current situation in the world education system, which declares the need to educate students for knowledge society, for improving the graduate employability is behind the motivation of authors to address competencies and key competencies for the knowledge society.

The authors present theoretical and empirical investigations based on the application of scientific methods of competency assessment and the use of contemporary scientific paradigms. The starting point is the concept of competencies in the context of current approaches of scientific psychology, which resonates in the official documents of the European Union and has been elaborated and enriched by the authors. The monograph focuses on a selected set of competencies, namely: competence to act as a self-regulated person, self-development, decision-making competencies, social and metacognitive competencies in the context of motivation. Knowledge about nature, the structure of competencies are presented, as well as their relations with personal and environmental variables.

The effort of the authors is also aimed at making available knowledge about the possibilities of assessing these competencies using current methods. Authors communicate the results of the creation and verification of competency assessment methods. The implementation of the research results presented in the monograph is perspective in the education and counseling of the target group of university students.

The research monograph is focused on studying the effectiveness of the Unplugged prevention program conducted at primary schools across Slovakia.

Using two large datasets with repeated measures, the monograph contributes to research knowledge about substance use prevention. The authors studied protective and risk factors, developmental trends of smoking and alcohol consumption as well as the effectiveness of the Unplugged prevention program – its effect on psychological and behavioural indicators of health-related behaviour.

Considering the complexity of the analyses on two datasets with 5 waves of data, each chapter is presented as a separate research study. The findings serve as a basis for recommendations for parents and teachers and also for school management at primary schools that support effective school policy aimed at the prevention and promotion of the health in schoolchildren.

Vzdelávací systém (školstvo) je jedným z najúčinnejších nástrojov formovania mladej generácie v každej vyspelej spoločnosti.
