Abstract

The aim of this article is to figure out the psychological formations of youth age which develop the experince design ability. According to N.V. Chepelieva, experience design is a means to build a conceptual model that helps to deal with new situations an individual is unfamiliar with. The analytical review of psychological researches makes it posible to identify the key features of youth attainment by age groups, predetermined by the sociocultural situation of building and dvelopment of megacognition. A prerequisite for experience design is the ability to comprehend it, which is formed during adolescence. Due to it an individual attains intellectual maturity, develops their cognitive abilities as well as self-awareness. Adolescents also become able to see and understand themselves at a qualitatively new level, which contributes to a creative attitude towards the discursive practices surrounding them. Developed megacognitive skills and social situation of development of individuals contribute to the following adolescent achievement – the ability to set goals independently. Building understanding of the continuity of life perspective in adolescence leads to setting adequate life goals and handling life´s challenges. Creating the need to "be different from others" is a must for the unique futuristic narrative. Forming a worldview and coping with the problem of self-determination establishe values. The values are formed by decoding and accepting existent sociocultural senses and due to a personal interpretation. Involving an adolescent into social diversity according to their attainded age prompts the ability to find new ways to interpret experience. If adolescents balance personal freedom and responsibility for the consequences of personal instability they manage to find new alternative ways and meanings in interpreting experience.
