Abstract

The paper aims to identify resources of the personality viability associated with the events of the Euromaidan taking place in 2013-2014 in Ukraine; as well as to find out the features of coping strategies manifestation depending on the activation of psychosocial resources of the viability of an individual. The following research methods were used: The Ways of Coping Questionnaire by R. Lazarus, S. Folkman, adapted by T.L. Kriukova, Mann-Whitney U-test. Besides, a question-naire on viability resources was designed. The survey was conducted using Facebook in 2017. Those who wanted to take part in the survey filled in an online Google Forms document. Considering the events of Euromaidan as potentially trau-matic, the actualization of such psychosocial resources of viability as tolerance to risk, optimistic attitude to the future, readiness to take an active public position; expectation of family support, were revealed in the respondents. Among the leading forms of psychosocial control over risks there were the desire to hold one’s own life positions, the possibility of further implementation of life plans. Some features of the manifestation of coping strategies were identified, depending on the activation of psychosocial resources of viability. For example, the Euromaidan activists tended to use “confrontational coping” aimed at “finding social support’, “positive revaluation” in the process of coping with difficulties. The respond-ents who monitored the events of Euromaidan in 2013-2014 also used strategies for confrontation and social support seek-ing, but at the same time they demonstrated an appeal to such copings as “self-control”, “acceptance of responsibility” and a tendency to “escaping/avoidance”.
