Abstract

The paper emphasizes the important role of socio-psychological attitudes of the individual in various spheres of life. Socio-psychological attitudes have a huge impact on motivation, professional self-determination, and other aspects of the high schooler. Adolescence is a sensitive period for the development of emotional intelligence. Depending on the extent to which the emotional intelligence of the student is expressed, there can be various manifestations of the socio-psychological attitudes. Materials and methods. The study aims to explore the features of socio-psychological attitudes in high school students with various levels of emotional intelligence. The main method of research is testing. The study also relies on the emotional intelligence questionnaire ”Emin” (D. V. Lyusin), the Methodology for diagnosing socio-psychological attitudes of a person in the motivation-and-need sphere (O. F. Potemkina), and the Scale of optimism and activity (N. Vodopyanova, M. Stein). Students of grades 10-11 took part in the diagnostic tests. Results. The findings have revealed that intrapersonal emotional intelligence is better developed in high school students, whereas some indicators of emotional intelligence show their insufficient level of their development. These are understanding of other people’s emotions, sensitivity to the inner state of another person and, in general, interpersonal emotional intelligence. The integral indicator of emotional intelligence is average for the majority of respondents. Altruism orientation and money orientation predominate in the socio-psychological attitudes of the individual. In our opinion, altruism for high school students is a way to acquire the moral experience of humanity, and their money attitude is connected with the values and attitudes of their family. Discussion and Conclusion. The study has proved that there are specific features of the socio-psychological attitudes of high school students with different levels of emotional intelligence, namely: students with a high level of emotional intelligence focus on the process and altruism, their expression of optimism and activity is also higher than that in the students with low emotional intelligence.
