metadata.name: dc.description.abstract
metadata.value: The paper presents a theoretical review of research on the phenomenon of nostalgia — its essential
  characteristics, behavioural patterns; and identifies situational contexts that are most relevant
  to nostalgic experiences and approaches to the categorisation of nostalgia as a state and
  as a trait (proneness); considers the links and relations of nostalgia with various psychological
  constructs. Based on previous studies, a generalization of the functions of nostalgia has been
  carried out, among which we can emphasise both the functions common to mental states — integration,
  reflection, energetic, development, and specific ones — protective, anticipatory and,
  complementing reality. The approaches to the study of the place of nostalgia in the system of
  mental phenomena are analyzed: in a number of personal characteristics, in connections and
  relationships with cognitive functions. The article emphasizes the importance of situational context
  for the study of nostalgia, since the parameters of the situation can be triggers of nostalgia,
  actualizing its energy, protective and resource functions. The article emphasizes the importance
  of situational context for the study of nostalgia, since the parameters of the situation can be triggers
  of nostalgia, actualising its energetic, protective and resource functions. Factors mediating
  the effectiveness of nostalgia interventions are considered, such as personality traits (the Big
  Five and the Dark Triad). The specific nature of situations that evoke nostalgic experiences —
  the situation of isolation associated with physical, territorial or social limitations — has been
  identified. The conducted analysis allows us to define nostalgia as an integrative mental state,
  situationally determined, associated with changes in the individual’s life space, with internal experiences
  reflected in the person’s perception of the situation, influencing resilience and subjective
  well-being through a mediated relationship with individual characteristics. Despite a relatively
  large number of studies, the effects of nostalgia on individuals’ psychological well-being
  and resilience remain insufficiently understood and require further research using observational
  (including longitudinal) and experimental designs, and samples selected according to different
  criteria, particularly those in situations of isolation.
