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?

Социальная теория

С. 41–69.
Хестанов Р., Колесникова А. И., Suvalko A.

This chapter is one of the key chapters in the book and focuses on how the problem of the future is thematized and discussed by leading foreign intellectuals in Western universities and think tanks.  It is noted that a characteristic feature of social theorists of the early 21st century is a catastrophic visionarity, which predetermines their orientation toward direct political action and is the basis of the imperative of all those measures that are put forward as policies, as well as the rigidly defined normativity of theories. Theories of this type are labeled "affirmative".

Giri A. K., Uldanov A., Parkhomenko S. et al., , in: Russian Social Thought in the 19th Century.: India: Routledge, 2025. P. 1–8.

Провал проекта социализма в ХХ веке привел к тому, что можно обозначить как потерю горизонта ожиданий. Люди все более ориентированы на настоящее, а будущее, если и рассматривается, то скорее как источник страхов и неуверенности, а не как возможность реализации человеческих устремлений и проектов. Разного рода методы «приватизации» своего жизненного пространства ведут к эскапизму от более ...
