The article analyses the psychological literature on the problem of senior pupils’ professional self-determination. The author’s theoretical and methodological position is elaborated and the results of its approbation are presented. It is shown that the available approaches can be divided into two main groups. Some researchers focus on the goal and end result of vocational self-determination, while others seek to reveal the algorithm of the process itself and/or its stages. Researchers are unanimous in their opinion that the choice of an occupation by senior pupils is the first and most responsible stage of professional self-determination for the individual as a whole. At the same time, the senior pupils’ professional self-determination concepts, which would reflect the unity of theoretical positions and methods of its study, are practically not presented in national psychology. To overcome the existing limitations, the article proposes to consider the senior pupils’ professional self-determination from the position of the activity approach as a special kind of activity with its own structure. The motivational component is the motives for choosing a career, while the operational component is the senior pupils’ professional identity status. The empirical study results of the of formation level of senior pupils’ professional self-determination are discussed on the basis of the activity methodology.

Self-determination theory (SDT) (Ryan & Deci, 2000) suggests that when a person is motivated they likely experience a sense of autonomy, competence, and relatedness. It is important to understand how these constructs relate to physical activity and sport if we are to persist in our notion that these pursuits can positively impact the holistic development of youth (Camiré, Trudel, & Forneris, 2013; Frankl, 2007). Thus, the purpose of this investigation is to examine the motivational characteristics of adolescents participating in an after-school mountain bike program. Data were analyzed via field notes, interviews and focus groups. Content analysis of the individual and focus group interviews along with field notes revealed that the mountain bike sport environment served to foster motivational characteristics as is described in SDT.Based on this investigation, students who participated in the after-school program (n=28) reported a sense of autonomy, competence and relatedness.

Introduction. In the context of increasing transfessionalism of labour market and growing socio-economic uncertainty, modern students, including future teachers, should not only master the chosen specialty, but also be ready for meaningful entry into the profession. This process, which does not work according to the traditional model, but implements the principles of individualisation of education, has not been studied yet in higher education. The lack of analytical information on professional self-determination implementation, what affects it and students’ perceptions of their own professionalism do not allow psychological and pedagogical preparation for the upcoming employment to be purposefully and effectively organised.Aim. The present research is aimed at identifying the general and specific characteristics of professional self-determination of students-teachers of primary courses of undergraduate studies, while their training is organised through individual educational trajectories.Methodology and research methods. The development of the research procedure was based on the provisions of the author’s concept of semantic mechanisms of professional self-determination, according to which the basic types of activity of the subject of the professional path are the design of the professional future, its active implementation and reflective understanding of experience. The diagnostic complex combined the assessment of students' professional self-determination through objective methods with the opinions of students themselves about the process of their professional development. Processing of the results included descriptive statistics procedures and data clustering using the K-means method.Results and scientific novelty. Typological groups of students are identified taking into account different indicators of professional self-determination and professional identity. It has been established that there are at least four different variants of professional self-determination in the junior years of Bachelor’s programmes in Pedagogy (“positive pedagogical identity”, “teachers making choice”, “undecided” and “non-educators”). Detailed differences between these groups are presented. The parameters of differences include the formation of a personal professional plan, an emotional attitude to the profession, degrees of conscious activity, self-esteem “I am a professional”, subjective satisfaction with professional deve lopment based on the following interconnected aspects: accepted values of teaching profession, self-efficacy in solving pedagogical problems, opportunities for self-realisation and for choosing a direction and development methods, experiencing identity, understanding of own vocation, motivation for pedagogical activity. It is noted that positive respondents’ self-identification in the teaching profession is combined with high activity in the development of pedagogical experience from various sources. It is concluded that there is the need for differentiated psychopedagogical support of students taking into account the characteristics of their professional self-determination.Practical significance. The model, previously designed by the authors to accompany professional self-determination of teachers-students, is clarified. In accordance with the results obtained, the authors make recommendations concerning the development of content and organisation of such support in the conditions of educational process individualisation.

We present the results of investigation of the motivational component of psychological readiness for professional self-determination in adolescents in specific social situations of development. It was assumed that in a particular deficit social situation of development under the influence of negative social context the formation of motivational readiness for professional self-determination is hindered. We revealed significant differences in the level of development of motivational readiness for professional self-determination of pupils of the school for children with behavioral problems, pupils of boarding school for orphans and pupils of regular secondary school. It is shown that the motivational sphere of adolescents with deviant behavior and adolescents without parental care is characterized by focus on the failure avoidance, predominance of external motives of choice of profession, lack of awareness of their values and motives. The obtained results can serve as a basis for the development of technologies of psychological and pedagogical support of professional self-determination of teenagers with consideration of their age and development and of the individual characteristics due to the aggravation of social situation of development.

Представлены результаты теоретико-эмпирического исследования ценностно-смысловых факторов самоопределения предпринимателей в их отношении к деловому партнерству. В качестве содержания ценностно-смысловой сферы рассматривались смысложизненные и ценностные ориентации личности. Психологические отношения предпринимателей к базовым принципам делового взаимодействия - прагматичности и нравственности, а также оценки процесса и результата делового взаимодействия рассматривались как характеристики их самоопределения . Выявлена взаимосвязь важности прагматичности и нравственности как принципов делового партнерства со смысложизненными и ценностными ориентациями личности. Ориентация предпринимателей на прагматичност ь связана с двумя показателями смысложизненных ориентаций - «Цели в жизни», характеризующим целеустремленность, наличие целей в будущем, и «Локус контроля-Я (Я-хозяин жизни)», характеризующим представление о себе как о сильной личности, обладающей достаточной свободой выбора, чтобы контролировать события собственной жизни. Ориентация предпринимателей на нравственность взаимосвязана с таким показателем смысложизненных ориентаций, как «Процесс жизни или интерес и эмоциональная насыщенность жизни», который отражает удовлетворенность своей жизнью в настоящем, восприятие ее процесса как интересного, эмоционально насыщенного и наполненного смыслом. Высокая значимость общечеловеческих гуманных ценностей совместной жизнедеятельности (семьи, любви, доброты) оказалась положительно связана с эмоциональной удовлетворенностью деловым партнерством, в то время как высокая значимость индивидуалистических, прагматических (материальной обеспеченности и богатства) - отрицательно. Результаты исследования подтверждают релевантность рассмотрения смысложизненных и ценностных ориентаций личности в качестве факторов и основания самоопределения предпринимателей в деловом взаимодействии. The results of theoretical and empirical research of value-sense factors of self-determination of entrepreneurs in their relation to the business partnership were presented. The content of the value-sense sphere considered to be the meaning and value orientations of the individual. The psychological attitude of entrepreneurs to the basic principles of business interaction - pragmatism and morality, as well as assessment of the process and result of business interaction were considered as characteristics of their self-determination. The relationship between the importance of pragmatism and morality as principles of business partnership and the understood and value orientations of the individual has been revealed. The orientation of entrepreneurs on pragmatism connected with two indicators of understood orientations - "Goals in Life," which characterizes determination, presence of goals in the future, and "Locus of Control-I (I am the master of life)," which characterizes the perception of myself as a strong person, having sufficient freedom of choice to control the events of his own life. The orientation of entrepreneurs to morality is interrelated with such an indicator of meaning orientations as "Process of life or interest and emotional saturation of life," which reflects satisfaction with its life in the present, perception of its process as exciting, emotionally saturated and filled with meaning. The high importance of the universal humane values of joint life (family, love, kindness) was positively related to emotional satisfaction with a business partnership, while the high importance of individualistic, pragmatic (material security and wealth) was negative. The study results confirm the relevance of considering the meaning and value orientations of the individual as a factor and basis of entrepreneurs' self-determination in business interaction.

It is emphasized that moral norms regulate interpersonal interaction, which is associated with professional activities, and morality is the basis for effective interaction between people. Moral guidelines as a basis of maturity from the standpoint of the system-subject approach are analyzed. It is noted that moral values are formed on the basis of human needs, and value in general is formed in relation to the object that is able to meet human needs. Moral judgments are seen as a process of social decision-making based on numerous factors. The generalization of the views of researchers dealing with the moral sphere of personality, allowed within the concept of moral development of personality, to distinguish three stages of moral development of the individual: pre-moral, conventional (guided by most members of society) and post-conventional, which requires the following factors: social contacts, high level intelligence, independence from authorities. It is determined that morality is an individual property of the individual, based on the norms of morality. For the formation of morality it necessary to determine the following basic foundations of morality: biological, spiritual, social, pragmatic. It is established that the highest level of personal and professional self-determination is the moral, value-semantic level, which has a great influence on professional self-determination and professional development of a person. It is emphasized that moral guidelines as a tool of social regulation are a necessary prerequisite and resource for successful professional development and play a crucial role in the course of professional development and the effectiveness of professional activity. It is noted that the key stage of professional development in the study of moral guidelines is the acquisition of higher education. It was found that in the process of learning in adolescents, moral guidelines reflect the general ethical values accepted in society and serve as a basis for the formation of specific professional values  adopted in the profession, which is mastered by the student.
