URL: https://en.nbpublish.com/library_read_article.php?id=57236
Abstract:
The author of the article described his method of dividing the ways of future prediction into intuitive and discursive and suggested his own conception of their complementarity. According to the author, discursive prognostic practices are represented by various forms of conceptual manifestation of the common practice of future prediction, arranged and systematized in a certain order with the help of language. Intuitive prognostic practices often use language and words for expressing ‘intuitive feelings’, too, but their typical features include subjectivity, emotionality and a low degree of understanding the true mechanisms of acquiring such information about future.

Then the author compared these parameters with the same parameters of activity of future leading specialists. It is shown that there is no correlation between the form of the chosen career (professional and a leader) and progress in studies but there is a certain correlation between future specialists’ choice and active social work in schools and universities. Surprisingly, it has been found out that future professionals are usually more active and socially successful during their studies while future leaders are less active in their social life and social work.

P. 91-96.
URL: https://en.nbpublish.com/library_read_article.php?id=57245
Abstract:
The article considers professional interests of modern school seniors. The author has carried out a theoretical analysis of dynamics of professional interests and abilities of schoolchildren throughout the 20th century. It is shown that very often seniors are interested in professions which will become popular only in the following decades. Professional interests of modern school seniors are analyzed from the point of view of the theory of integral individuality. It is shown that teenagers with a strong temperament are often interested in humanities, while highly intellectual teenagers are more interested in the ‘human-sign’ type of profession, chemistry and math. Socially active seniors are interested in the ‘human-human’ type of profession but they are also often interested in math and chemistry.
