The technique arose as a result of the use and further improvement of the technique of I. G. Senin.

This technique was called the "Morphological test of life values" (MTZhTs), based on the goals and objectives of the study - to determine the motivational-value structure of the individual.

Terminal values ​​are the main diagnostic construct of MTLC. Under the term "value" the authors of the methodology understand the attitude of the subject to the phenomenon, life fact, object and subject, and the recognition of it as important, of vital importance.

List of life values ​​diagnosed by MTWC:

Self development

Spiritual Satisfaction

Creativity

Active social contacts

own prestige

High financial position

Achievement

Preservation of one's own individuality.

The questionnaire is aimed at studying the individual value system of a person in order to better understand the meaning of his action or deed.

The morphological test of life values ​​consists of 112 statements, each of which the subject must evaluate on a 5-point system.

If the meaning of the statement does not matter to you, then put the number 1 in the appropriate cell of the form;

If it matters little to you, then put the number 2;

If it has a certain meaning for you - put the number 3;

If this is IMPORTANT for you - put the number 4;

If this is VERY IMPORTANT for you, put the number 5.

To obtain the primary test results, the scores of the answers are summed up in accordance with the key. After calculations, all results are entered in the table. The proposed values ​​belong to multidirectional groups: spiritual and moral values ​​and egoistically prestigious (pragmatic). This is conceptually important for determining the direction of the activity of an individual or group. The former include: self-development, spiritual satisfaction, creativity and active social contacts, reflecting a moral and business orientation. Accordingly, the second subgroup of values ​​includes: prestige, achievements, financial position, preservation of individuality. They, in turn, reflect the selfish-prestigious orientation of the individual.

Estimated testing time is 20-30 minutes. Group form.

Schwartz value questionnaire

Source: Karandashev V.N. Schwartz's technique for studying personality values. Concept and methodological guidance - St. Petersburg: Speech, 2004.

The Schwartz questionnaire is based on the theory that all values ​​are divided into social and individual. The questionnaire was developed by Shalom Schwartz in 1992. When developing the questionnaire, the author used the Rokeach method, qualitatively modifying, expanding and improving its conceptual base.

Age: from 14 years old

The first part of the questionnaire is designed to study the values, ideals and beliefs that affect the personality. The list of values ​​consists of two parts: nouns and adjectives, including 57 values. The subject evaluates each of the proposed values ​​on a scale from 7 to -1 points. The second part of the Schwartz questionnaire is a personality profile. Consists of 40 descriptions of a person, characterizing 10 types of values. To evaluate descriptions, a scale from 4 to -1 points is used.

Terminal Values ​​Questionnaire (OTeTs) I. G. Senin

Source: Tikhomirov A.V. The method of differentiation of professional choices in the practice of vocational counseling / A. V. Tikhomirov // Staff-profi Yekaterinburg, 2001. - Issue 2, part 1.

The test is based on the theoretical provisions of M. Rokeach about the structure of human values. The technique allows assessing the overall severity of each of the eight terminal values: one's own prestige, high financial position, creativity, active social contacts, self-development, achievements, spiritual satisfaction, and the preservation of one's own individuality. As well as their representation in various spheres of human life: the sphere of professional life, the sphere of training and education, the sphere of family life, the sphere of public life, the sphere of hobbies.

The questionnaire consists of 80 statements, each of which the subject evaluates on a 5-point Likert scale (1 - does not matter, 2 - little value, 3 - a certain value, 4 - important, 5 - very important). The scores obtained in points according to the tables of norms are converted into stans. The results are presented in the form of an individual profile, separately for the scales of terminal values ​​and life spheres.

Method "Houses" Orekhova

O. A. Orekhova created a projective test of personal relationships, social emotions and value orientations "Houses" (Orekhova, 2002, 2008, 2010). The "Houses" test was developed by the child psychologist Orekhova O.A. as a diagnostic tool for differentiating the child's emotional sphere. The created technique is based on the color-associative experiment proposed by Etkind A.M. to analyze relationships. As a result of testing, a reliable picture of individual characteristics, preferences, cognitive needs and spiritual values, the ability to form relationships in society is revealed, personality development options are revealed, psychological problems of the child and the presence of internal contradictions are revealed.

Psychological diagnostics is carried out in the form of group and individual lessons. The research procedure consists of three coloring tasks. In the first task, the child ranks six colors according to the degree of preference for each color. In the second task, the child is asked to choose the right color for the houses in which feelings “live” (happiness, grief, justice, resentment, friendship, quarrel, kindness, anger, boredom, admiration). In the third task, the color-associative series of the child's emotions is connected to various types of activities in the kindergarten, to the kindergarten itself, which the child attends. When coloring the last house in the third task, the child independently chooses a social object of preference for himself, chooses an occupation for it, and only then paints it in a suitable color, thus denoting his attitude to this value, i.e., rank.

"Comprehensive study of self-esteem and value orientations" I. P. Shakhova

Children from preschool age.

In this case, the examination is carried out purely individually. The stimulus material consists of a card with a schematic representation of three figures of children and seven cards with value characteristics printed on them. The psychologist invites the child to consider one card with the image of three figures of children, under which there is another card with definitions, and answer the question: “Here are three very similar boys (girls). This boy is smart, this one is strong, this one is healthy. In all other respects they are no different. Which of these boys (girls) would you most like to be? Etc. The child's answer is encoded in the protocol form. Then the child should answer the following question: “Now imagine that one of these boys is really you. Who could it be? Which one of them is actually the most similar to you? The results are entered respectively in the columns "Value orientations" and "Self-assessment" (Shakhova, 1998). This technique considers such values ​​as intelligence, strength, gaiety, beauty, accuracy, success in learning, health. In accordance with the results of this test, the psychologist can judge the child's personal maturity, the differentiation of the system of value orientations, the assessment of the child's personality by significant adults, and his adaptive capabilities.

METHODS: Morphological test of life values ​​(MTZHTS) (V. F. Sopov, L. V. Karpushina). The technique is designed to determine the motivational-value structure of the personality. The technique arose as a result of the use and further improvement of the technique of I. G. Senin. This version of the life values ​​questionnaire is designed to help a practical psychologist both in individual diagnostics and counseling, and in the study of various groups (labor and educational teams) on motivation problems, for a better understanding of the importance of various life spheres of activity. Terminal values ​​are the main diagnostic construct of MTLC. Under the term "value" the authors of the methodology understand the attitude of the subject to the phenomenon, life fact, object and subject, and the recognition of it as important, of vital importance. The list of life values ​​includes: 1. Self-development. Knowledge of their individual characteristics, the constant development of their abilities and other personal characteristics. 2. Spiritual satisfaction. Management of moral principles, the predominance of spiritual needs over material ones. 3. Creativity. Realization of one's creative potential, striving to change the surrounding reality. 4. Active social contacts.

The significance of a particular area of ​​life for different people is not the same. List of life spheres: 1. Sphere of professional life. 2. Sphere of education. 3. The sphere of family life. 4. Sphere of social activity. 5. Sphere of hobbies. 6. The scope of physical activity. The questionnaire is aimed at studying the individual value system of a person in order to better understand the meaning of his action or deed. The identity of a person is developed in relation to the basic values ​​recognized in society. But personal values ​​may not reproduce an exact copy of social values. The design of the questionnaire includes a scale of reliability of the degree of desire in a person for social approval of his actions. The higher the result, the more the behavior of the subject (at the verbal level) corresponds to the approved model. The critical threshold is 42 points, after which the results can be considered unreliable. Terms of conduct. The morphological test of life values ​​consists of 112 statements, each of which the subject must evaluate on a 5-point system. The survey must be carried out in a favorable emotional climate. The experimenter should be friendly, should be able to answer questions that arise, but not provoke a definite response of the subject to the statement. When conducting a group survey, each subject must have his own text of the questionnaire. It is allowed to read the statements aloud by the experimenter for the whole group. Everyone must answer individually. Processing of test results. To obtain primary test results, the scores of answers are summed up in accordance with the key. In the reliability scale, the sign must be taken into account when calculating. All answers with a minus sign are inverted. So, if the subject puts 5 points in response to a statement related to the reliability scale, then 1 point corresponds to him. If the subject gives 1 point for a statement with a negative value, then 5 points will correspond to him. After calculations, all results are entered in the table. The proposed values ​​belong to multidirectional groups: spiritual and moral values ​​and egoistically prestigious (pragmatic). This is conceptually important for determining the direction of the activity of an individual or group. The former include: self-development, spiritual satisfaction, creativity and active social contacts, reflecting a moral and business orientation. Accordingly, the second subgroup of values ​​includes: prestige, achievements, financial position, preservation of individuality. They, in turn, reflect the selfish-prestigious orientation of the individual. At all low values ​​- the orientation of the personality is indefinite, without a pronounced preferred goal-setting. With all the high scores, the orientation of the personality is contradictory, intra-conflict. With high scores of values ​​of the 1st group, the orientation of the personality is humanistic, the 2nd group - pragmatic. The questionnaire consists of 112 statements. Estimated testing time is 20-30 minutes. Notes for the computer version. 1. Interpretation of the main scales of life values ​​and life spheres is made on the basis of test indicators expressed in the walls. 1-3 wall - low performance; 4-7 walls - average; 8-10 walls - high rates. 2. Interpretation of the reliability scale is based on "raw" test indicators. 16-42 wall - the information is reliable; 43-80 walls - the information is unreliable. The technical diagram of the confidence scale is based on an indicator with a zero reference point, i.e. ranging from 16 to 80 points. 3. Interpretation on the scales of values ​​within life spheres is made on the basis of "raw" test indicators. 2-4 points - low performance; 5-7 points - average indicators; 8-10 points - high performance.

In the New Year, completing the cycle and opening the next one, we consciously or not look at the past period, summing up and thinking about the FUTURE. We make plans, set goals, calculating our strength. And this is the uniqueness of New Year's Eve.

We try to understand what is important for us at this stage of life. By arranging the order of our preferences, we decide what we need and put our strength into it. In psychology, this "need" is called "personal values." Personal values ​​are the motivators of our actions. When the set goal resonates with our true values, there is no internal conflict, energy comes freely and in abundance. We feel the drive, the desire to act, we do not need to force ourselves. We get results from such actions faster and easier. But understanding what is truly valuable to us does not always lie on the surface. It is advisable to check what exactly is a value for us.
