THE STRUCTURE AND DEVELOPMENT OF SELF-AWARENESS IN THE CONCEPT OF HUMAN PSYCHOLOGY OF VIKTOR NESMELOV

The research problem was determined by the inconsistency of scientific views in considering the development process and the structure of self-consciousness in psychology. A various of scientists dealt with the problems of self-awareness, but there is still no universally recognized concept that would explain the whole variety of psychic phenomena of self-awareness. The purpose of the study was to analyze the phenomenon of self-consciousness in the religious and philosophical concept of Viktor Nesmelov and to structure his ideas into a unified system. We used historical and psychological methods, such as an analytical review of literature sources and theoretical modeling. The theoretical and methodological base of the research is the religious-philosophical approach to understanding self-awareness and human psychology of Viktor Nesmelov. Analyzing the structure of self-identity according to Nesmelov's ideas we distinguish structural components, divided into three areas: emotional-value, cognitive and behavioral. The emotional-value sphere contains values ​​that driving life feelings and a standard (ideal) of life. The cognitive sphere of self-awareness includes the process of cognition of being, acquired knowledge about the world and experience assimilated in the process of cognition. The behavioral sphere of self-awareness contains volitional regulation and actions. We considered this structure in the ontogenetic aspect of development. Thus, we have identified the structural elements of self-consciousness in religious and philosophical psychology of Viktor Nesmelov and described 3 stages of development of this process.
