Abstract

Purpose. The purpose of the presented article is to provide an analytical review of the findings of a research project on personal safety in the context of experiencing social trauma based on the materials of a research internship within the framework of the Postgraduate Education and Humanities Programme (PUCPR, Curitiba, Brazil).

Methods. The methods of literature review of theoretical and empirical sources and methods of psychological modelling were used to reproduce the functional content of a comprehensive socio-psychological analysis of personal security norms in the context of wars and migration processes. The participatory methodology of triangulation through interpretive analysis, conceptual scientific aspects and standardisation of public policy for arguments for the preservation of human rights, proposed by professor A.M. Eyng, was also used.

Results. The project implementation is reflected in the development of a system of social and psychological analysis of personal security in the context of wars and migration processes; creation of an information and analytical system for the restoration and preservation of the mental health of its active subjects (children, adolescents, youth, teachers, psychologists). Through a qualitative study, using an interpretative analysis of conceptual scientific aspects, public policy and empirical data, the author identifies arguments in favour of preserving human rights and psychological modelling as a reproduction of the functional content of a comprehensive socio-psychological analysis of individual security standards in the context of wars and migration processes. The theoretical contribution integrates research in education (Eyng, 2024) and psychology (Virna, 2023a-f, 2024a-g) into a joint study (Virna; Eyng 2022, 2023, 2024a, b). The prognostic horizons of the authors' theoretical developments illustrate the context of their applied understanding as a system of actions aimed at overcoming various destabilising factors in the experience of states of insecurity and protecting mental health and well-being.

Conclusions. As part of the international research internship in the field of education and humanities, it was possible to get acquainted with psychological and pedagogical research practices that can be successfully applied in Ukraine, as the war and issues related to migration, resettlement and refugees raise the issue of intercultural education, the introduction of cross-cultural psychotherapy and the adoption of relevant legislation.
