Abstract

Person releases oneself in different spheres of life. In this working paper the concept of self-realization is described from the point of view of humanistic psychological school, that means using this term in case of self-actualisation. Theoretical analysis of the concept and impact of virtual environment on youth were performed. The senses of continuity of oneself and continuity in time in young age are hardly tested. Psychological perception of own time becomes very tight. Besides, the changing of youth self-identity is associated with an increase of the importance of their own values. It was suggested that a condition when self-realization in the real world suffers as opposed to self-realization in the virtual world may be changed by giving full information about negative consequences of such a situation and how to use the Internet space to increase the self-realization level both in the virtual world and in the real world.
