HISTORICAL AND METHODOLOGICAL ASPECTS OF PSYCHOLOGICAL APPROACH TO THE RESEARCH OF PERSONALITY IN THE CONDITIONS OF ILLNESS

This work is devoted to the historical and methodological analysis of three approaches to the problem of personality and searching of the bases of their correlation in research and diagnostic practice. The first approach is based on the I.V.Davydovsky-S.N.Davidenkov's pathogenetic concept. The second approach uses the concept of personality of the Soviet psychological school of L.S.Vygotsky and A.N.Leontev. The third approach is based on pre-revolutionary traditions of the philosophical and anthropological approach to understanding of personality. Discrepancies between methodology and the methodical tools in modern clinical pathopsychological practice are considered and the conclusion about the presence of system-methodological inversion in the system of relations among sciences resulting from the revolution in the approach to the problem of personality is made.
