The correlation between the psychological features of the personality with the structure of the values

Abstract

In this work we rely on the understanding of the values essence and their structure offered by B. S. Alishev within his systemic-functional approach. In his opinion, it is necessary to distinguish fundamental values which are reflected in human mind and consciousness as the functional links between the subjective and the objective worlds that have the concrete modality caused due to their contents. In his concept it is also noted that fundamental values (such as good, freedom, justice, love, family, wellbeing, power, etc.) have different priority for certain people and are differently treated by them in the substantial plan, but anyway they are so deeply implanted in their mentality that very often cease to be realized by them. The paper analyzes the concept of value in terms of philosophical and psychological understanding. As a result of the study there were obtained statistically significant data showing different values of multiple correlation between the severity of different psychological traits of personality and a measure of priority for the person. Moreover, the connections can be both positive and negative.
