Abstract

У статті з’ясовуються особливості становлення професійної ідентичності майбутніх психологів у процесі професійної підготовки студентів у ЗВО. На підставі проведеного емпіричного дослідження з’ясовані особливості динаміки становлення найважливіших показників професійної ідентичності майбутніх психологів під час навчання у ЗВО, зокрема, були встановлені відмінності, які існують у статусах професійної ідентичності серед студентів молодших і старших курсів.The article elucidates the peculiarities of the formation of the professional identity of future psychologists in the process of professional training of students in higher education institutions. On the basis of the conducted empirical research, the peculiarities of the dynamics of the formation of the most important indicators of the professional identity of future psychologists during their studies at higher education institutions were clarified, in particular, the differences that exist in the statuses of professional identity among junior and senior year students were established. Based on the conducted empirical research, it was established that the professional identity of junior psychology students is characterized by the beginning of understanding the essence of a psychologist's work, familiarization with its main functions. During this period, there is an entry into a new social and professional environment. The external student identity turns into an internally accepted, conscious, emotionally colored characteristic. This is an unstable stage associated with adaptation to the new social role of the student. Its essence lies in the formation of student identification (I am a student) and an unconscious fascination with the future professional identity. Senior years are characterized by the realization of a range of roles during professionalization, as well as the formation of new goals and perspectives. This is a period whose essence consists in rethinking and clarifying various options for professional and creative self-development, employment and building a professional career (I am my profession and career). This period can tentatively be called clarifying.
