Особенности пересечения профессионально значимых концептов в языковом сознании кардиологов

Abstract

The research is focused on the issues of conceptualization and identification of extra-linguistic aspects influencing the reflection of the received information in the language consciousness, revealing the connection of professionally significant concepts in the language consciousness of people. The aim of the study is to reveal whether the concept WORK is a hyperconcept in the language consciousness of representatives of the group distinguished by professional employment (cardiologists) in relation to the concepts representing the main objects of their labor functions (the concepts HEALTH and SICKNESS). The general research sample (1200 associations) was formed based on the results of two directional associative experiments with the words work, health, and disease stimuli with partial response constraints. The study was carried out on the integrated theoretical and methodological basis of psycholinguistics and cognitive linguistics. Scientific novelty is determined by the fact that the concepts WORK, HEALTH, SICKNESS are studied for the first time in the context of their representation in the language consciousness of representatives of a certain profession. The results of the scientific research allowed to establish that the concept WORK has a universal character and is an important element not only of the national, but also of the individual concept sphere. It was confirmed that in the spheres of employment requiring selfless labor, the WORK concept and the concepts denoting the main labor functions will not have a hierarchical relationship and will not act as hyper- and hypo-concepts.
