КАТЕГОРИЯ ЗНАЧЕНИЯ И СМЫСЛА В ПСИХОЛОГИЧЕСКОМ ДИСКУРСЕ

Abstract

In the field of human sciences the category of sensing does not coincide with the category of meaning. In the field of psychology there is also no unified definition of these categories. However, it is the meaning approach to the regulation of life activity that is the most effective in terms of modeling human behavior. Since meaning is broader than sence, it is the meaning interpretation that forms the basis of the psychology of understanding. Meanings express the subjective importance of objectively represented meanings of what happens in the world around us. In existential psychology, it is possible to describe the uniqueness of human existence on the basis of meaning representations. Meanings reflect the uniqueness of personal experience and the depth of a person's feelings experienced during his or her life. At the same time, the meanings and direction of a person's individual behavioral acts should be considered from the context of both the entire lived life and future life meanings. From cultural and historical positions, meaning is a psycholinguistic category, which acquires personal content in relation to meaning. Meanings reflect correlation of motives and goals of life activity. Meanings reflect not only intellectual content, but also show the emotional content of the experienced state. In personal development, meaning reflects the nature of interactions between individual perceptions of life and societal expectations about one's place in this life. Meaning sets the individual to perform activities in a certain way. This sets the stability and purposefulness of personal development. Personal self-determination in choosing the direction of professional development has a value-semantic nature, and also depends on motivation. The system of personal meanings has a complex manifestation and multilevel hierarchical structure. Meaning should be considered as an interdisciplinary construct that reflects the understanding of subjective meaning in psychology, philosophy, and linguistics. Meaning reflects the relationship between the subject and the object. This relation expresses the place of the object in the life of the subject, and this object is highlighted in the image of the subject's world. Thanks to this regulation of behavior of the subject in relation to the given object is carried out.
