Gender Equality in Preschool STEM Programs as a Factor Determining Russia’s Successful Technological Development
Russian Education and Society. 2017. Vol. 59. No. 3-4. P. 206–216.
The article discusses the importance of introducing training programs for preschool children that allow them to master basic knowledge in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM subjects) as an academic basis for the technological transition that is currently taking place in the modern world. It is shown that when preschool students study STEM subjects, it gives them a great advantage later in elementary, middle, and high school. As a result of our investigation of STEM subjects for preschoolers and the gender considerations that should be incorporated into successful teaching strategies, we have concluded that together with the preparation and institutionalization of such training programs it is necessary to teach the designers of educational programs as well as educators about the specific features that characterize how boys and girls learn. A curriculum that takes gender differences into account is one that does not allow the development of a gender dichotomy in education. Rather, it should ensure that both boys and girls have equal motivation and a positive attitude about STEM subjects.

На данных общероссийского опроса, проведенного Институтом социологии ФНИСЦ РАН в октябре 2025 года (N = 2000), показано, что реальная адаптированность к внешним условиям и объективные показатели адаптированности к ним - разные феномены. Объективные индикаторы адаптированности обладают меньшим эвристическим потенциалом, чем те, которые учитывают восприятие человеком соотношения своих потребностей и возможностей их удовлетворения. Адаптационный потенциал россиян ...

Malaria control in Malawi relies primarily on long-lasting insecticide-treated nets (LLITNs) and indoor residual spraying (IRS), but transmission remains heterogeneous across districts. Previous research indicates that community-based environmental management strategies, such as routine drainage maintenance, vegetation removal, and effective household waste disposal, may reduce environmental conditions conducive to malaria vector proliferation. This study investigated the ...

Adolescents’ leisure is increasingly compressed by tutoring and organized classes, raising concerns about time for self-directed recovery and agency. This study examines how structured and unstructured time relate to psychological well-being and academic achievement, and whether well-being helps explain time-achievement links.

The paper proposes a theoretical framework for analyzing the scientific elite, conceptualizing knowledge production as a dynamic structure shaped by internal contradictions. The scientific elite is understood not as a collection of outstanding researchers, but as a structural effect of knowledge production — a position within the scientific space that concentrates the maximum volume of ...

Clarity of knowledge and reasoning is necessary in many cases. Yet vagueness in scientific thinking related to surprise, curiosity, "ability to engage with not-knowing" (de Freitas) and abductive reasoning is also a crucially important source of scientific creativity which supplements combinatorial logic when dealing with the already known.
