Currently, in the context of an introduction of digital ICT in education, we are facing a problem of determinants in successful digital education that are compatible with the primary education al goals. Under the term significant determinants we understand digital competencies of teachers that necessarily become a subject of development. These competencies are pragmatically reflected in the frames or documents that describe the pedagogical training of future teachers.The author’s intention is to outline an alternative holistic perspective of understanding pedagogical training in future teachers and their digital competencies that are based more on phenomenology and hermeneutics. This perspective reflects a psychagogic approach to education. The author believes that future student training is expressed in „ars docendi“ also in digital education and this „ars docendi“ cannot be achieved without student’s self-reflection oft heir relationship with ICT, but especially not without self-understanding in terms of values and meaning. This self-understanding leads to moral self-awareness and responsibility. The author points out that it is necessary to accommodate the future teacher’s personal self-reflection and self-projection and incorporate also those psychagogic ally relevant elements that would be complementary in the process of developing digital competencies. This will allow overcoming challenges of future teacher education, considering the psychagogic needs in education.

Growing up in digital surroundings and using the Internet on a daily basis have been some of the most prominent features of the young population today. In fact, where Generation Z is concerned, this has virtually been the only modus vivendi they know. They find online communication natural, feeling comfortable in the digital world, spending most of their time on the Internet sharing photographs and video footage, having fun, and communicating by means of social media and various software applications. In doing so, they prove very skillful and they have no difficulty mastering new digital trends, but they are often unaware of how vulnerable they are in terms of protection of their privacy and personal data. For that reason, the paper aims at determining to what extent the members of Generation Z expose their private lives on theInternet, whether they are concerned about possible the consequences of these actions, and what steps they should take to protect their personal data. The results of the survey, conducted online, reveal that most examinees are unaware of the possible risks of providing their personal data to unknown entities on the Internet, as well as that the similar percentage of them do not take any steps towards protecting their privacy.

The paper undertakes an attempt at establishing a metamental model of ideology organization and the mechanisms for its sociogenesis. Foremost importance is assigned to emotional repertoires in the sustainability and systemic conversions of beliefs and convictions. The study argues for the preliminary function of emotional coherence in the ideology interpellations and in the intergration of ideological metamental spaces. The propagating potency of emotional operators results in the co-elaboration of significant cognitive, affective, and conative information that form the incontestable knowledge of ideological convictions. The empiricism of emotional experience translates to overarching bonds between the abstractness of ideological axis and the objective verity of the radial sphere.

Scientific literature on the dark triad and antisocial behavior has recently attracted the interest of researchers to effectively understand the complexities of human aggressiveness. In addition, studies showed that rule-breaking, physical violence, and social hostility represented three aspects of antisocial behavior, underlying of the Machiavellian correlation of specific deviant and antisocial behaviors, such as workplace difficulties, disruptive and counter-productive job action, and deception.Mach IV scale, initially created by Christie and Geis, is commonly employed for the measurement of Machiavellianism. However, this scale was criticized for its psychometric characteristics. While the construction was conceived as multidimensional, and the scale was congruent with measures of interpersonal tactics, a cynical view of humanity, and disregarding morality, it was generally utilized as a one-dimensional test.In order to clarify the evaluation of the sub-facet pessimistic perception of human existence, we explore the idea of Shadenfreude, described as the gratification gained by another from the suffering of another individual.Our research utilized convenience sampling technique, targeting a pool of 390 participants from Romania. For measuring Shadenfreude, this research has used a single item research question, along with other psychological dimensions measurements, in an online survey shared on social media platforms. Our research investigated if the difficulties in following the rules, superiority, and aggressivity are powerful predictors of schadenfreude. The obtained results validate our hypothesis, confirming that if an individual is characterized by a high level of difficulties in following the rules, superiority and aggressivity, there is a 16% probability that the person will develop a schadenfreude attitude towards peers. Discussion and implications are presented.

The psychology of our days promotes the idea that any human being has the capacity to be creative, but for this to happen there are a series of factorsnecessary to be involved. Guilford, the father of creativity, emphasizes the involvement in creativity of non-intellectual factors, but still considers that it remains under the condition of intelligence.Based on this fact, the present study researches convergent thinking as an important factor of the development of creativity and the variation of creativity in the school environment according to certain particularities, like the age and the background of the pupil. Contemporary education is dealing with the issue of creative learning, which is defined as a “form of teaching that, as a ultimate purpose, creates individual and collective behaviors which are oriented towards the search, the discovery and the realization of the new”. (Şchiopu,1992). Therefore, creative teaching entails: personal initiative and independent work, belief in one’s own strengths, positive reactions to the demands of the environment. Creativity will become more and more a needed ability in the future and civilizations will thrive according to the measure of creativity they display. Creativity is therefore a problem that can determine the survival in time and space.(Roco, M.2001)
