PARTICULARITIES OF ADULT PROSOCIAL ORIENTATION
Abstract
The Article discusses the results of an experimental study of the adoption by adult people of values recognized in prosocial groups, willingness to apply these principles in relation to different partners. The study involved respondents of three age groups of the mature age: the first group of the respondents were of the period of early adulthood (30–35 years), the second - middle adulthood (40–45 years), the third – late adulthood (60–65 years). Prosocial fundamentals were studied in seven categories of people relations with whom (real or potential) have different and emotional meaning for personality. It has been emphasized that family ties are a solid basis for development of prosocial strategies in the period of maturity. It has been also noted that prosocial motivation is kept even between partners between whom there are ideological disagreement and confrontation. The matters of age genesis of prosocial orientation over a long period of ontogenesis, namely in the period of maturity have been highlighted.
