Abstract

The article presents a study of the features of volitional self-regulation of convicted women with drug addiction in conditions of social isolation. The purpose of the study was to study the characteristics of volitional regulation of convicted women with drug addiction. The subject of the study is the peculiarities of volitional regulation of convicted women with drug addiction. The hypothesis of the study is the assumption that the volitional regulation of convicted women with drug addiction differs from the volitional regulation of convicted women who do not have drug addiction. The study was carried out using the following diagnostic tools:
 – a methodology for studying stylistic self-regulation of behavior (SSP) aimed at the emotional-volitional sphere;
 – the methodology for studying volitional regulation (VVR) is aimed at studying the emotional-volitional and motivational-need spheres of the individual;
 – the “Volitional Personality Qualities Questionnaire” (VQL) technique designed to assess the volitional qualities of an individual.
 60 respondents took part in the study. The subjects were divided into two groups. 30 convicted women with drug addiction were selected for the experimental group. The control group consisted of 30 convicted women who did not have drug addiction.
 The results obtained during the study indicate that convicted women with drug addiction are extremely dependent on the opinions and assessments of others, are unable to independently develop plans and programs of action, and often and uncritically follow other people’s advice. In the absence of outside help, they inevitably experience regulatory failures. The stylistic features of self-regulation of activity reveal uncertainty in a rapidly changing environment; they have great difficulty getting used to changes in life and are extremely dependent on the opinions and assessments of others. They also have a reduced ability to consciously overcome obstacles on the path to their goals and conflict-free behavior; they are characterized by low initiative, independence, suggestibility, and dependence on the opinions of groups.
