Abstract
This article presents the results of a psychodiagnostic study of the experiences of women suffering infertility of unknown origin (psychogenic infertility) and having experience of in vitro fertilization (IVF). Our study involved 59 women who had no physiological problems with reproductive health. The control group included 39women with the first pregnancy, who had no negative pregnancy experience. The experimental group consisted of 20 women with no history of pregnancy who underwent in vitro fertilization (IVF) without success. The main assumption is that the characteristics of the experience are associated with the success of IVF. Experience was studied in terms of four components: semantic, emotional, temporal and cognitive. The aim of the work was to study the characteristics of experiences in women with psychogenic infertility who underwent IVF. The study was carried out using psychodiagnostic methods: test of life-purpose orientations by D. A. Leontyev, Luscher Color Test, Life Line test adapted by T. D. Vasilenko, questionnaire of socio-psychological personality attitudes by O. F. Potemkina. Statistically significant differences were found in the temporal and cognitive components of the experience. A conclusion was made about the relationship between the above components of the experience and unsuccessful IVF procedure.
