DYNAMICS OF THE HUMAN RESOURCES POTENTIAL OF MODERN UKRAINIAN LINGUODIDACTICS AT THE DOCTORATE LEVEL
Full text (pdf)
Language: Ukrainian
Abstract. The objective of this article is to investigate the dynamics of the human resources potential of linguodidactic science during Ukraine’s independence period in the structure of Doctors of Sciences, with a focus on quantitative and gender-age composition, average age of scientists, and their representation by regions of the country. This analysis aims to identify trends in the evolution of scientific personnel in Ukrainian linguodidactics. The study revealed that the human resources potential of linguodidactic science in the structure of Doctors of Sciences as of March 1, 2024, comprises 44 researchers out of 58 who defended doctoral dissertations during 1985-2023 in the specialty 13.00.02 “Theory and Methodology of Teaching (Ukrainian Language)” in four main directions: 1) in the history of Ukrainian linguodidactics – 2 doctoral studies (3.4%); 2) in the field of preschool and primary linguodidactics – 12 doctoral studies (20.7%); 3) in linguodidactics of basic and specialized secondary education – 19 dissertations (32.8%); 4) in linguodidactics of higher education – 25 dissertations (43.1%). The dynamics of the human resources potential indicate a decrease in the number of Doctors of Sciences actively working. This is caused by a number of factors, including the death of linguodidactic scholars, reaching retirement age, unsatisfactory health conditions, emigration, collaborationism, etc. This leads to the conclusion that the specialty 13.00.02 “Theory and Methodology of Teaching (Ukrainian Language)” is more female-dominated than other scientific specialties. In terms of age structure, Doctors of Sciences of productive age from 41 to 60 years old predominate (61.3%). The overall age range of Doctors of Sciences in Ukrainian linguodidactics engaged in educational and scientific activities varies from 36 to 88 years old. The average age of researchers who defended doctoral dissertations during 2006-2023 decreased by 10 years compared to the average age of scientists who defended doctoral dissertations in 1985-2005.
