Abstract

Introduction. The article is devoted to the psychological and pedagogical experiment on the formation of anti-corruption orientation of cadets of educational organizations of the Federal Penitentiary Service of Russia. The data of modern statistics indicate a steady increase in the number of corruption crimes in the Russian Federation, which in turn determines the need for the formation of anti-corruption orientation among cadets of law enforcement agencies, including cadets of educational organizations of the Federal Penitentiary Service of Russia. We believe that the anti-corruption orientation is an integrative personal education of cadets, including motives, values, needs, value orientations, psychological attitudes, ensuring compliance with the norms of anti-corruption legislation in the learning process through the development of motivational-value, cognitive-cognitive, spiritual-moral and emotional-volitional components. One of the ways to solve the problems of forming an anti-corruption orientation is to create author's psychological and pedagogical programs and implement them within the framework of a formative experiment. The psychological and pedagogical experiment on the formation of anti-corruption orientation was carried out by us in three stages: ascertaining, forming and control. At the ascertaining stage of the experiment, observation, testing, conversation, as well as a package of psychodiagnostic techniques aimed at studying the level of formation of structural components of the anti-corruption orientation were used. The task of the ascertaining stage was to study the level of formation of the structural components of the anti-corruption orientation of cadets of educational organizations of the Federal Penitentiary Service of Russia. According to the results of the empirical study, the cadets were divided into three groups, depending on the level of formation of anti-corruption orientation (high, medium, low). At the formative stage of the experiment, the author's psychological and pedagogical program was implemented, which was introduced into the educational process of cadets of educational organizations of the Federal Penitentiary Service of Russia. At the control stage, the effectiveness of the author's psychological and pedagogical program for the formation of anti-corruption orientation was evaluated and a comparative analysis of the results obtained in the control and experimental groups was carried out.Materials and Methods. The following methods were used to conduct a psychodiagnostic examination: "16-factor personality questionnaire (R.B. Kettell)", "Diagnostics of the real structure of personality value orientations (S.S. Bubnov)", "Diagnostics of socio-psychological attitudes of personality in the motivational and need sphere (O.F. Potemkina)", "Locus of control questionnaire (E.G. Ksenofontova)", "Personality questionnaire of moral and legal reliability (E.Y. Strizhov)", "Scale personal strategies for overcoming life difficulties (S. Hobfall)".Results. In order to test the effectiveness of the author's program for the formation of anti-corruption orientation of cadets of educational organizations of the Federal Penitentiary Service of Russia, we conducted a repeated psychodiagnostic of the structural components of the anti-corruption orientation using the previously used package of psychodiagnostic techniques. It is established that the cadets after the formative stage of the experiment have positive personal changes, which confirm the formation of the structural components of the anti-corruption orientation. The authors diagnosed an increase in the level of self-control of emotions and behavior, confidence, the establishment of interpersonal contacts, the development of constructiveness in building relationships with others, the ability to adequately build their behavior depending on the conditions of the surrounding reality, the formation of a clear hierarchy of motives, a moderate desire to defend their views and principles, the desire to achieve goals and perseverance. The analysis of the obtained data shows that the author's psychological and pedagogical program has a positive impact on the development of the cadets ' personality: there is a development of responsibility for their own behavior; the formation of resistance to situations of a provocative nature, the development of moral and legal reliability of cadets. During the comparative analysis of the control and experimental groups, an increase in the level of indicators of the structural components of the anti-corruption orientation of cadets was observed, which confirms the effectiveness of the psychological and pedagogical program used.Discussion and Conclusions. Our psychological and pedagogical experiment on the formation of anti-corruption orientation of cadets of educational organizations of the Federal Penitentiary Service of Russia, including the ascertaining, forming, control stages, has shown its effectiveness. Positive dynamics of anti-corruption orientation was diagnosed. It is established that in the process of implementing the psychological and pedagogical program, the structural components of the anti-corruption orientation of cadets of educational organizations of the Federal Penitentiary Service of Russia are formed.
