COMPARATIVE STUDY OF INTERPERSONAL INTERACTION OF MALE AND FEMALE TECHNICAL PROFILE STUDENTS

Abstract

The article is devoted to the problem of interpersonal interaction creation by male and female technical profile students. Results of the empirical research showed that male students of a technical profile have a dominant tendency in interaction, while female students have a tendency to be sensitive and friendly. A high level of sociability is common to both male and female students, which contributes to the emergence of attraction. Technical profile students have a high level of desire for people and a relatively significant fear of being rejected. Female students are more eager to establish friendships with others than male students, but they are also more afraid of being rejected in communication and interaction than male students. Male students have an active desire to win leadership positions, social recognition, and a high status in the system of interpersonal relations. They are able to take responsibility and to be persistent in their beliefs, to insist on their own. Instead, female students have an internal desire to accept group standards, values, traditions, the ability to make contact. Such traits as modesty, timidity, shyness, and the ability to forgive are inherent to them. They strive to take care of close people, show tolerance towards others. Thus, male and female technical profile students have different specifics of interpersonal interaction creation, in particular, they are affected by different factors of interpersonal interaction and strategies for creation of interpersonal relationships.
