Abstract
In Russia during the Soviet Union, the problem of emigration did not arise, because there was practically no emigration. In Russia, after the restoration of capitalism, there was emigration, but there was no problem of emigration, since everyone who wanted and could leave freely, and the image of a “citizen of the world” had positive connotations. Everything changed dramatically with the start of a special military operation, and our study of the potential reasons for the emigration of young people from Russia in 2021–2022 looks especially relevant now. The purpose of the study is to identify the reasons that contribute to the formation of emigrant moods in the stratum of schoolchildren of sixteen to eighteen years old, students of senior classes of general education schools. The design of the study involved a comparison of the psychological structure of the personality of high school students, carriers of a different, negative and positive, image of Russia and the psychological portrait corresponding to this image. The study involved 70 people, including 27 boys and 43 girls, all students of prestigious schools in Yekaterinburg. An analysis of the relationship between the variables Negative Image of Russia and Desire to Emigrate with the variables that form the psychological portrait of a person showed an obvious difference between these portraits. It was revealed that the desire to emigrate is determined by the negative image of Russia that exists in the mind of a high school student, which is a causal factor that forms the personality traits of a potential emigrant.
