Abstract

The article reveals the value measurements of self-direction and presents the results of the empirical study of Self-direction as a personal value. The analysis of approaches to the study of the value aspects of self-direction is carried out; in particular, humanistic-oriented approaches in determining self-direction as a person’s value are analyzed. The essence of the concept of autonomy and autonomous behavior is revealed, which leads to an increase in the assimilation of experience and enhancement of the coherence and structuredness of one’s self. The priority values for young students are singled out which are the self-transcendental values of Benevolence and Universalism, a conservation value of Security, and that of Self-direction and Hedonism. The least significant values turned out to be that of Tradition, Conformity, and Power. It has been shown that the significance of such values as Security and Universalism, and the high-level values of Self-transcendence and Conservation increases with age. The value of Self-direction is not a very important value among senior students, but at the same time, the number of undergraduates for whom the value of Self-direction is of average importance is increasing. The prospects of further research and possibilities of application of the received data in practice, in particular, in the process of professional training of future specialists, are determined.
