Abstract
The results of experimental study of common notion on stability (2015) were compared with those of analogous study (2002). The goal of the diachronic study carried out for 13 years apart was to find out common and specific features in the perception of stability by respondents, possessing identical sets of social characteristics. Integrated comparative-correlative study is done with the data of two experiments’ results: associative experiment and experiment with semantic differential method. The study manifested the nucleus of stability associative field representing consciousness constants and peripheral area, variable in terms of structure and quantitative filling. The analysis of the experiment results with semantic differential method made it possible to find out resemblance and differences in perception of stability and chaos by respondents. Undoubtedly, it is important for future study of Russian stabilization consciousness. The method of semantic differential as a psycholinguistic method and as a tool of this phenomenon of perception study revealed emotional evaluative constituent of stability common idea . The authors confirm the supposition made earlier about relativity of common notion on stability; gap between reality (societal and global stability – instability) and representation; on mythologization and ideologization of stability awareness.
