Value-semantic conditionality of difficulties of self-realization during alcohol dependence formation at young age

In the context of the formation of alcohol dependence in young age, the role of value-semantic structures as dynamic determinants of the space and quality of self-realization is discussed. It is shown that the formation of value-semantic structures of the rural residents of the northern regions of Siberia is influenced by certain environmental restrictions. The results of studies indicating the particular value-semantic structures that impede the process of self-realization at a young age in the formation of alcohol dependence are presented. Self-realization in the period of youth is considered as a process of self-development that provides resistance of the person under conditions of entrance into the independent building his / her own life. Within the anthropo-systemic approach, senses and values determine the orientation and selectivity of self-realization, the choice of life environments where there is a possibility to realize oneself most fully. It has been shown that the problem of impossibility to realize oneself is associated with the formation of trouble (mental, physical, social one). Barriers, conditions of formation of impossibility, ineffective types of self-realization associated with specifics of the value-semantic sphere have been presented. Rural population of northern regions of Siberia form the system of values and semantic structures under the influence of certain environmental restrictions. In this respect, deformations in values and semantic structures of representatives of rural youth of northern regions may condition impossibility of self-realization. The research involved 70 patients aged from 22 to 35 under treatment for the revealed alcohol dependence syndrome (experimental group) and 70 persons without mental health problems (control group). In order to study the characteristics and identify challenges for Siberian North rural youth self-realization psychodiagnostic techniques were used: Test of the Meaning of Life Orientations by D.A. Leontiev, the technique of measuring meaning of life by P. Ebersole, the Rokeach Value Survey, open-ended questions about the process of self-realization. Data processing methods were the method of content analysis; methods of mathematical statistics. As a result, data have been introduced regarding the specifics of the system of life values-goals and values-means, their content and correspondence in the system of the world image and life image; awareness and content of purposes of life and their correlation with life goals; views on purposes of life, factors promoting and preventing their realization. Basing on the analysis of these data, deficits and deformations in values and semantic structures have been revealed that complicate the process of self-realization, values and semantic resource possibilities of self-realization; tasks of psychological care for persons of young age during the formation of alcohol dependence have been defined.
