Introduction. The authors investigate the problem of high school students’ ideas about future time perspective, which reflect the level of their personal development and the ability to solve life and professional problems independently and creatively. The purpose of the study is to identify the structural and content features of high school students’ ideas about future life perspective taking into account different levels of personal maturity. Materials and Methods. Ideas about future time perspective were considered based on the concepts of the event-situational approach and the personal-time arrangement of future time perspective. The following biographical and psychodiagnostic methods were used to collect empirical data: E. Korzhova’s ‘Psychological autobiography’; The Twenty Statements Test (TST) by M.Kuhn and T. McPartland; A. Miklyaeva’s ‘Scale of personal maturity self-assessment’. Methods of mathematical statistics were used to analyze the quantitative results of the research. Results. The authors summarize the findings of the theoretical and experimental study of high school students’ ideas about their future time perspective. The structural components of the ideas have been clarified, their functions in building future time perspective and regulating social activities of high school students have been determined. The study reveals the distinctive features of students’ ideas about future taking into account different levels of personal maturity in such aspects as event-richness and extensity of life perspective, its emotional coloring, concretization, and relationship with various aspects of personal maturity. The key content characteristics of the students’ ideas about future reflect their experience of self-identity and awareness of changes. Their important function is to regulate high school students’ activities, aimed at the implementation of life plans. The level of personal maturity affects structure and content of adolescent ideas about future time perspective. Conclusions. The structure of high school students’ ideas about future time perspective includes a number of components that determine future well-being, socialization, and self-fulfillment. The principles and ideas, which have been developed as a result of the research, can be transferred to teachers' and psychologists' work with problems of life and professional self-determination of high school students. Keywords Level of personal development; Personal maturity; Ideas about future time perspective, High school students’ professional activities; Regulation of social activity.

Measures of personal future time perspective (FTP) and social-political FTP and an endorsement of Negro rights militancy scale were administered to 119 white and 221 black high school students, of whom 103 and 188 respectively produced usable data. The two racial subgroups did not differ in capacity to take a long-range point of view in regard to their personal futures; however, the black students organized their attitudes about black liberation in terms of a much briefer future time span than that considered appropriate by whites. Militancy was not associated with any deficiency in the ability to anticipate the future.

High school students’ experienced negative emotions caused by the earthquake that strucked Sigi District, Central Sulawesi, Indonesia. In addition to overcoming negative emotions, they were faced with deciding on a career decision. For this reason, this research aimed to determine the effect of Future Time Perspective (FTP) on Career Decision Self-Efficacy (CDSE) of 141 students from six high schools. Simple regression indicated that FTP positively affected the CDSE of high school students. Moreover, using multivariate regression analysis on FTP and five dimensions of CDSE, we found that FTP contributes positively and significantly to the five dimensions of CDSE. Therefore, the research implied that FTP based intervention program is able to promote CDSE.

AbstractThis study investigated types of career choice in high school students and examined the effects of career paths on time perspective development. The participants were 4,756 third grade students from nine public high schools in Tokyo. The high school questionnaire survey was conducted throughout autumn of 2008, 2009, and 2010. One year later, 962 graduates participated in the follow-up questionnaire survey by post. Distinguishing gender difference among career paths was found. Girls tend to choose significantly shorter learning careers (p < .01), for example junior college or vocational school in comparison to boys. Career indecision, i.e. students who could not set a concrete future career in high school, had significantly more negative time perspective than other groups (p < .05), which was caused by a deficiency of their basic cognitive ability. Longitudinal data showed different patterns of fluctuation in time perspective between “school to school transition” and “school to work transition”. It is suggested that the “school to work transition” tends to be more critical for adolescents and has negative effects on time perspective. These results suggest that the goal content in careers may promote or inhibit the formation of time perspectives during the graduation transition.
