РОЛЬ САМОРЕГУЛЯЦИИ И СМЫСЛОЖИЗНЕННЫХ ОРИЕНТАЦИЙ НА РАЗНЫХ ЭТАПАХ ВЗРОСЛОСТИ

Abstract

The results of a theoretical and empirical study of the image of the future, its functions are presented, predictors of the image of the future are identified, which are associated with its formation, they are conscious self-regulation associated with the image of the future through procedurality and active implementation of the planned, as well as life-meaning orientations that act as cognitive semantic fullness of the modus of the future. Their role in the formation of the image of the future, the influence on its qualitative and quantitative assessments at the stages of early and middle adulthood is determined. The hypothesis is verified that at the stages of early adulthood there is a reorientation, the specificity of life-meaning orientations and their stability are formed. It is shown that a high orientation towards the future, the relevance of self-determination, as well as a situation of uncertainty in front of the future remain, in this regard, self-regulation plays a leading role in the formation of the image of the future. At the stage of middle maturity, the consolidation and implementation of life meanings and plans, the active embodiment of the image of the future, are already taking place, while self-regulation fades into the background. It was found that the qualitative and quantitative assessments of the image of the future at different stages of adulthood are specific.
