Research Of Personal Values In The Structure Of Conciousness Of Student Youth

Abstract

In accordance with the theoretical model of consciousness, formulated in the Samara School of Psychology, the features of the professional consciousness of students of higher and vocational education are considered. A comparative analysis of the professional consciousness and personal values of students of higher and secondary specialized educational institutions is carried out. The content and scope of ideas about goals, difficulties, and plans for self-improvement in professional activities, as well as personal values of students are compared. The structural similarity of ideas is empirically confirmed with quantitative differences corresponding to the training profile. The research results indicate the differences in the system of personal values in the structure of students' consciousness. The difference in indicators is due to age characteristics, the period of study, the specifics of the specialty, and the components of professionalization. Comparison of the results of the study of the educational and professional consciousness of students of higher and secondary specialized educational institutions also allows us to talk about their differences due to a variety of socio-psychological factors: the organization of the educational process, the qualifications of teachers, and the specificity of the direction of study. The insignificance of the instauration factor (creative, constructive actualization and self-realization) is stated in both surveyed samples.
