Abstract: The subject of this study are the styles of individual behavior in a conflict situation, self-esteem and its correlation with behavior as typically seen for men and women in early adulthood. The author closely examines the phenomenon of self-esteem as the individual's evaluation of themselves, their capabilities, qualities and their position among other people. The author provides a reasoning for the importance of studying self-esteem in men and women in early adulthood, which has traditionally been defined to the age of 20 to 40 years old. The study results presented can be used in psychologist practice and professional training for counseling male and female clients of early adult age in order to improve their competence in conflict situations, as well as to develop special training courses for psychologists, lawyers, sociologists, state civil servants.
The study is based on theoretical and empirical research methods, including survey and analysis, which involves theoretical analysis of psychological studies on the studied phenomena, as well as testing, quantitative and qualitative methods for processing study results, statistical analysis of the data acquired. The methods of statistical processing of information include descriptive statistics (average values count), calculation of significance for criteria of difference using the φ - criterion (Fischer angular transformation) and correlation study using Spearman's rank correlation method. The novelty of the study is based on the need to provide solutions for the prevention and management of conflict behavior of adults that dictates the necessity for a comprehensive study of personality determinants of human behavior in the conflict since the topic of the correlation between self-esteem and personality styles of behavior in a conflict situation is mainly studied in developmental psychology from the perspective of self-esteem of children and adolescents. The author, based to the results of the study, concludes that the behavior of the person in conflict is driven by psychological factors, self-esteem, in particular. Therefore, the formation of proper self-assessment, increasing a low self-esteem, and, on the other hand, lowering it, if over-inflated, will contribute to building a more productive interpersonal interactions. The formation of a new model of behavior, the resolution of interpersonal problems requires a lot of effort and time for both, psychologist, and at the client. Individual counseling, employment training in groups (T-groups) can provide the necessary help to the person in dealing with these problems.
 

Abstract: In the modern world one of the biggest problems with the forests of the African continent is deforestation. According to the latest research, Africa holds a second place in the world in deforestation. The problem of deforestation is being examined in combination with the consequences of climate change. The author focuses not only on the traditional approaches towards use of forest resources, but also legal regulation of rational use and sustainable development of forests. The author also explores the prospects of development of environmental tourism in a number of countries of the African continent. This work presents the analysis of the main causes for the mass deforestation and a significant decrease in the forestation of the African continent. Traditionally, the state of forest land is assessed on the example of the nations of Fennoscandia, Canada, and the United States. The author’s attempt to analyze the development of the forestry of Africa allows us to become familiar with the traditions and customs of the indigenous people, who use the forest for their everyday life, as well as allows us to evaluate the efficiency of the measures undertaken by the states of the African continent on rational use and sustainable development of the forests.
