Abstract

With the changing and expanding approach to the creation of a learning environment as one of the essential factors in the quality of the organisation of the learning process, the article reveals the links that underpin the importance of an andragogue’s general competencies for the development of a transformative learning environment. The relevance of the scientific problem is highlighted by the theoretical and empirical search for the general competencies of the andragogue, which creates favourable preconditions for the transformation of the learner’s empowerment personality. The participants in the research were employees of health-care institutions in various regions of Lithuania who have participated in in-service training events at the Centre for Continuing Studies of the Faculty of Social Sciences and Humanities at Klaipėda University. The analysis of the need for health-care professionals due to the importance of an andragogue’s general competencies in creating a transformative learning environment has highlighted the direct impact of age on different needs. The results of the research show that an andragogue’s general competencies help to create a transformative learning environment, in which the totality of intellectual, emotional and practical dynamics enables the learner’s transformation, focusing on personal qualities, abilities, skills, attitudes and positive attitudes, and the development of a mindset for continuous improvement. Suggestions are provided to andragogues on how to streamline changes in adult learning that focus on personality change by creating a transformative learning environment.

BETWEEN ROTATING VICIOUS CIRCLES AND MOMENTOUS SOLIDARITY. THE CORONA PANDEMIC AS A PROVOCATION TO (PASTORAL) PSYCHOLOGY

Abstract

Emotional vulnerability and how to respond to it during the Corona pandemic are the focus of this article from the field of (pastoral) psychology. It outlines strategies for the accompaniment of people in crises and ways in which they deal with crises from monitoring to blunting, from behavioural immune systems to conspiracy theories. Revisiting old patterns of behaviour combined with a narcissistic rejection of one’s own fragility, or closing oneself off in acceptance of the call of a strong leader, as well as influencing social change based on solidarity, three psychological approaches can be identified as a way out of the crisis. It becomes apparent that we are not all in the same boat; on the contrary, the inequality between an inflatable boat and a luxury yacht is becoming more distinct. However, the Christian message of the resurrection of the dead brings hope, with caution and humility. After all, even the Crucified and Resurrected One allowed himself to be identified by his wounds.

Abstract

At present, the Covid-19 pandemic is controlled in many countries by the development of the vaccination and/or the natural immunity of the population. Unfortunately, Lithuania is on the list of the most affected countries in Europe and the world, taking into account the loss of population both from the disease caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus and from increased mortality from other diseases. We will probably not avoid a pandemic in the future, so it is necessary to analyse why Lithuania has been less successful than neighbouring countries in overcoming the pandemic. The aim of this study is to compare the excess mortality of the population of Lithuania and other countries during the Covid-19 pandemic, and to discuss the possible causes and consequences of the exceptionally high excess mortality of the Lithuanian population. Material and methods: analysis of indicators, comparison of data. The results of the analysis show that a number of countries (Ireland, Denmark, Sweden, Norway, Malta and Germany) not only did not experience significant excess mortality, but their Covid-19 victims per one million population were also incomparably fewer than in Lithuania. In some countries (Luxembourg, Sweden, Norway, Belgium, Denmark), life expectancy increased, suggesting that improvements in public health have been possible even during the Covid-19 pandemic. It is recommended that the experience of these countries be analysed, in order to avoid disruption to public health resulting in exceptionally high excess mortality from Covid-19 and other diseases and a decline in life expectancy.

Journal: Tiltai Volume 88, Issue 1 (2022), pp. 22–31

Abstract

The article presents the situation of patients in Poland, based on existing data (non reactive research), and individual interviews with Patients’ Agents in the given clinic or hospital and Patient’s Ombudsmen. It presents doctor-patient relationships in the daily routine of a health centre in the context of Polish law and procedures, and highlights the role of the Patients’ Ombudsmen in creating a patient-friendly environment. Due to the large number of hospitalisations, whose duration is continually shortened because of financial limitations, ensuring the patient’s well-being is becoming increasingly difficult.

Abstract

The aim of the research is to evaluate the change in the psychomotor reactions of six and seven-year-old children when applying physical therapy. The research involved children at the age of six and seven years. It aimed at evaluating both the change in the speed of the psychomotor reactions of these children’s free upper limbs to light while applying physical therapy, and the change in the speed of the psychomotor reactions of free upper limbs to sound while applying physical therapy. The research sample consisted of 270 children. Methods. The research data was collected by employing a method of testing using a reactiometer. The surveyed were divided into two research groups, which underwent different programmes in physical therapy exercises twice a week for the duration of six weeks. Group 1 underwent a physical therapy exercise programme comprising introductory, main and final parts (warm-up exercises, exercises developing coordination, and relaxation exercises); Group 2 also underwent a physical therapy programme comprising introductory, main and final parts (warm-up exercises, exercises developing the coordination, and exercises developing the psychomotor reactions to light and sound as well as relaxation exercises). The research data (testing) was collected before starting applying the physical therapy programme, and six weeks later. Results. The research results revealed that the results between the groups differed. The average reaction time was shorter in Group 2, which means that the tasks were completed faster. In Group 1, the shortest reaction time was 283 ms, and the longest was 650 ms. In Group 2, the shortest reaction time was 284 ms, and the longest was 456 ms. Conclusions. When applying physical therapy jointly with purposive exercises that develop the speed of psychomotor reactions, results can be achieved over the shortest period of time substantiated in scientific papers, i.e. six weeks.

Looking for lost pieces of a puzzle: the Dollkeim-Kovrovo culture cemetery at Perdollen

Abstract

The article is devoted to the archaeological discoveries in the former village of Perdollen. A flat

cemetery of Dollkeim-Kovrovo culture was discovered in this locality, dating back to the Roman

period, and probably also to the Early Migration period. Moreover, there was a cemetery from

modern times with inhumation graves. The Dollkeim-Kovrovo culture cemetery was badly damaged

by agricultural work, and the extraction of gravel and sand. Most of the artefacts discovered

there come from excavations carried out by Carl Engel in the 1930s. Apart from one fibula, probably

a Roman import, all the items are lost. The sources of knowledge about the state of research

are almost exclusively archival materials and some daily newspapers.

Abstract

The field research at Groß ottenhagen (Berezovka) conducted in 2003 and 2004 was the first

international scientific collaboration between German and russian archaeologists in kaliningrad

region since 1945. The Groß ottenhagen cemetery demonstrates almost continuous functioning

for about 1,000 years, from the roman iron Age up to the middle Ages. The part of the site considered

in the article belongs to the last stage of the development of sambian-natangian culture

among the old Prussians in the 11th to the 13th centuries Ad. despite a first analysis by the

excavators in 2005, this data from the cemetery has never been fully published. Groß ottenhagen

graves from the discussed period are represented by so-called double layer burial features, with

human cremations on top of horse burials. The burial rites and grave goods at the cemetery are

discussed in the context of archaeological material from the sambian peninsula and southwest

and central lithuania. The relative chronology of Groß ottenhagen is based on an analysis of

grave goods, as well as the stratigraphy and the spatial distribution of the graves. According to

the absence of imported/status goods at Groß ottenhagen, the cemetery probably belonged to a

peripheral group of the late sambian-natangian region culture of the Prussians.

Abstract

The lower reaches of the Daugava in the Mesolithic and Neolithic were sparsely populated until

the second half of the Early Bronze Age (1800–1100 BC). The situation began to change from

the 14th century BC, when the process of Neolithisation was over, and the local communities

switched completely to animal husbandry and agriculture. In terms of social and economic relations,

the area reached its highest level of development in the Late Bronze Age (1100–500 BC),

which continued, albeit with a downward trend, in the Earliest Iron Age (500–1 BC). The article

discusses the conditions that promoted the economic prosperity and social development of societies

in the lower reaches of the Daugava in the direction of differentiation. The most important

condition for this development was the involvement of lower Daugava societies in the long-distance

exchange network between Scandinavia and the Volga-Kama region, where the main object

of exchange was bronze, and the related focus on the processing of it in downstream centres.

These metal products, weapons and jewellery, and their limited availability, were elements in the

demonstration of social prestige. With the spread of local iron metallurgy in Eastern Europe and

Scandinavia, the long-distance exchange of bronze lost its former importance. Consequently, the

main bronze processing centres in the lower reaches of the Daugava also declined, and a collapse

occurred in the existing socio-economic system.

Abstract

The recent intensification of AMS 14C assays of bone and antler artefacts in the east and southeast

Baltic region has revealed a number of reindeer (Rangifer tarandus) antler axes, and their prevalence

in the Late Palaeolithic osseous toolkit. One of the oldest, dating from 11 221–11 048 cal

BC, was discovered in 2014 in the village of Parupė, on the left bank of the River Nemunėlis, in

northern Lithuania. Until now, no such organic implements discovered in the region in question

have been associated with any Late Palaeolithic taxonomic group, but at the location of the antler

axe at Parupė between 2015 and 2019, three concentrations of numerous lithic findings have been

identified, whose typological and technological features allow for the consideration of their possible

association with the dated axe. In this paper, we present three concentrations of lithic finds

(sites 1–3) at Parupė village, providing their technological and typological data, and their possible

chronology and taxonomy, reflecting the Late Palaeolithic and Early and Late Mesolithic. We

conclude that the moderate lithic complex from site 1 should be associated with Late Palaeolithic

technology, and can possibly be linked with the antler axe.
