Abstract
The study focuses on the model of structural components of personal
meaning and is based on the spatial organization of human life. The article describes the components of the semantic sphere in all the conceptual diversity of psychological approaches to the phenomenology of the process in question. The author analyzes theoretical and methodological orientation of modern psychology at the personal potential of semantic entities as a condition for integrated wholesome personality. One’s personality is represented by the subject and, at the same time, by the object of one’s own life. Personal meaning is defined as a complex system formation, which includes cognitive (life views, ideals, values, beliefs, and interests), emotive (emotional and evaluative attitude to oneself and to others) and cognitive (behavior, interpersonal interaction, focus and behavior in different social conditions) components. The process of meaning integration is accompanied by harmonization and unification of the structural components in a coherent system, i.e. the system of personal meanings. The system as a whole acquires new qualities, not present in the individual components, the personal meaning being the apex of personality integration. Components of the proposed model structurally reflect the methodological potential of the concept of personal meaning. The research aims at creating an integrated approach to the study of the semantic determination of personality.
