Abstract

The article presents an example of personality research with the help of the author’s psychosemantic technique “Color-associative experiment”, which is a combination of the method of free associations by C.G. Jung and the eight-color subtest by M. Lusher. In qualitative and quantitative data processing and interpretation, free and axial coding techniques are used, thanks to which the psychologist can get a complete impression of the current state of the respondent. These two projective techniques of grounded theory are the reason we can formulate now grounded psychodiagnostic conclusions in a consulting process. In the described examples of implementing the “Color-associative experiment” method, both respondents (a first-year master’s student and a final-year bachelor’s student) are characterized as a neurotic personality with an overestimation (or super-value) of the desire to achieve success.

Introduction

The article presents an example of personality research with the help of the author’s psychosemantic technique “Color-associative experiment”, which is a combination of the method of free associations by C.G. In qualitative and quantitative data processing and interpretation, free and axial coding techniques are used, thanks to which the psychologist can get a complete impression of the current state of the respondent. In a situation of limited time, methods and techniques allowing to get an idea of the whole personality in the shortest possible time are required Among these methods Kucherenko S.V. developed a psychosemantic technique “Color-associative experiment” which is a synthesis of the associative experiment of C.G. Jung [1, 3, 9, 10, 11] (the method of free and directed stream of associations) and the test of M. The analysis of qualitative data was carried out with the help of open, and subsequently axial coding
