Abstract

The paper examines the research findings relating to the relationship of the sociometric status of the personality in a group, group sociometric indices, and trends in the behavior of a person in a group with a level of personal jealousy. The research shows that envy as a stable personality trait is not correlated with the actor’s place in the system of interpersonal relations in a group, cannot define its sociometric status and express attractiveness/unattractiveness of the actor’s personality to other members of a group. The study proves that envy and group cohesion can lead to each other or alternatively determine the development of professional achievements, intelligence, and interpersonal communication with the opposite sex. The author concludes that the envy of the personality, which inherently shares independence and accepts the struggle, has a motivating and stimulating effect on it determining its further development and the achievement of better results. The external characteristics of independence and acceptance of struggle allow the personality to offset the negative emotional state associated with envy.
