When Pictures Hinder Understanding: Illustrations May Impede Learning of Abstract Ideas
Illustrations can help remember specific actions but do not always make abstract ideas easier to learn. Researchers from HSE University and Humboldt University compared how people learn from texts with different levels of abstractness. They found that participants remembered illustrations better and performed better on related tasks after reading a multimedia text about yoga asanas than after reading an abstract text about the Nash equilibrium. The findings could help improve the selection of illustrations for educational and informational materials. The study has been published in Learning and Instruction.

'I Wish That People Would Place Greater Trust in Science'
When Tatiana Eremicheva chose Fundamental and Computational Linguistics as her field of study, she thought it would be about learning languages. Instead, she discovered it was about helping people. In this interview for the HSE Young Scientists project, she discusses science as a way of understanding the world, billiards as a team-building activity, and why learning to read is not always as easy as it seems.

Immunity to Chaos: How Personal Resources Help Us Cope with the Challenges of a Turbulent World
International conflicts, crises and digital overload—the modern world puts our minds to the test every day. Traditional psychology often focuses on the consequences: anxiety, depression, and psychosomatic disorders. But what if we looked at the problem differently—through the lens of the resources that prevent us from breaking down? Psychological immunity is precisely this set of resources. Alena Zolotareva and her group, Psychological Immunity as a Resource for Positive Functioning, are developing an integrative model of this phenomenon, adapting diagnostic tools and preparing for large-scale empirical research. Why do psychologists need to collaborate with medical professionals, and how could their research transform preventive care in clinics and corporations?

Arab Students in the USSR Art Institutes in 1959–1979: Ideology and Life Worlds

The Soviet and Post-Soviet Review. 2025. Vol. 52. No. 1. P. 32–69.
Nefedova O.

During the 1950s the Soviet Union created a dedicated exchange program intended to attract Arab artists and scholars from around the world. This educational plan was implemented in the USSR through two main strategies: by introducing propaganda and ideology into daily life, and educating art students in the artistic method of Socialist Realism. In this essay I address the process of realizing this ideological strategy and its functionality, I will explore the relations between students and their art institutes, and discuss the problem of Arab students’ adaptation to the new environment and the difficulties caused by cultural differences, as well as their subsequent fates and their contacts with the institutes after completing their studies and returning to their homelands.
