Abstract
The purpose of the article is to analyze students' personal choices in the alternative individualism - collectivism. The article contains sample’s analysis of the value positions of the modern personality on the issue of the leading cultural syndrome. The theoretical message for the study was the works of H. Triandis, as well as the works of N.M. Lebedeva on the socio-cultural characteristics of different types of societies. Over the past decades, qualitative changes at all its levels have occurred in Russia, that have influenced on important positions in personal identification. The empirical method of study was a test survey of leading value preferences of individualism - collectivism dilemma. The survey was compiled by one of the authors of the article Helen B. Baboshina. The questions take into account individualistic and collectivistic differences (twenty value alternatives) by asking for “your choice”. The analysis of the survey results is reflected in the article.In the interpretation of the features of socio-cultural identity, the authors rely on domestic researchers investigating the socio-cultural development of Russia (V. V. Kovalev (2015), A.V. Lubsky (2013, 2014), A. R. Lubsky (2014), M. K. Gorshkov (2012, 2013, 2019), others); the analysis also involves the works of classics of sociology, philosophy (E. Durkheim, T. Parsons). The study of identification taking into account domestic and general trends of social development showed typical for the present value positions of the emerging personality. The interpretation of the data takes into account the peculiarity of the respondents ' contingent in two components: territorial (TRANS-Urals) and professional (future and working teachers, education managers, teachers - psychologists; mostly-representatives of the female sex) components. As a result, the understanding of the new interaction of the features of mentality with the actual value choice of the person, where the peculiarity of the professional sphere of respondents suggests the likely consolidation of the “value climate” in the next generation, is formulated.
