Abstract

The article presents the results of an empirical study of the content and characteristics of the ideal "Matrimonial way of life" in professional military men and women in connection with the levels of their social frustration. The study involved 60 officially married military personnel. The research methods were questioning, testing and methods of statistical data processing. The study showed that men are frustrated with their chosen profession and the way of life dictated by it, and women are frustrated with their position in the team and material income, which leads to psychological discomfort and decreasing of work capacity. It has been established that an important condition for the approximation of the ideal "Matrimonial way of life" for both men and women is the official marriage (regardless of the severity of social frustration). Along with this, for women with high and low levels of social frustration are important the territorial conditions for the approximation of ideal, and for women with moderate level of social frustration – financial conditions. The conditions for approximation the ideal in men do not depend on the levels of their social frustration – men want to make basic decisions in the family and financially provide for the family. In general, the level of social frustration of the personality determines the content of the components and characteristics of the ideal "Matrimonial way of life" in men and women, with the exception means of approaching the ideal, its scenario, internal consistency, as well as the conditions for its approximation in men. The results of this research can be applied in the work of psychologists of military units and garrisons.
