Subjective Life Way Picture in Different Spatiotemporal Characteristics of Professional Occupation Conditions

The article covers the outcomes of the empiric research devoted to the revelation of subjective life way picture formation among servicepersons in different spatiotemporal conditions of professional activities. It verifies the hypothesis of interrelation between personality’s subjective life way picture and professional specifics of person’s position and actualization environment. Professional medium could affect spatiotemporal and life-purpose characteristics of life way, person’s temporal orientation, correlation of time loci in person’s world picture.

The findings prove the fact that spatiotemporal characteristics of professional activities conditions promote the development of person’s peculiar methods of time arrangement and formation of subjective life way picture. The article shows that the representatives of the model groups, mirroring different spatiotemporal organization of professional activities, demonstrate diverse perception and content of the past, present and future; dissimilar strategies of one’s own life way apprehension in the context of time transpective; varied directivities into life spheres. The results of the research are applicable for the organization of psychological work with servicepersons in different conditions of professional activities.
