EXPERIENCE IN APPLYING THE METHODOLOGY FOR STUDYING THE CONTENT OF HUMAN GOALS

Abstract

The experience of applying the methodology for studying the content of human goals makes it possible to single out speech constructions produced by the subjects in the course of working with the instrument and on the basis of which a number of classifications of goals are confirmed. Among them, there is not only the one that is involved in the technique of Yu.T. Glazunov and K.R. Sidorov, where goals are divided into regularly reproducible goals, analogue and development goals, but also the classification of D. Derner, who divides them into goals of striving and avoidance, general (global) and specific (definitized) goals, clear and unclear goals. The conducted analysis also leads to the formulation of a new classification of goals based on their orientation: towards oneself ("I"), towards other persons ("Others"), towards the world ("World"), towards the material sphere ("Material values"). The conducted research allows to increase the interpretative capabilities of the technique and, consequently, its objectivity. This makes it possible to widely use the method: both for scientific purposes and for practical purposes, for example, to determine the trajectory of further development, psychotherapy, self-knowledge and self-development of a person.
