Lozova O. Psychosemantic structure of ethnical consciousness

The dissertation deals with the investigation of psychosemantic structure of ethnical consciousness and in particular its perceptual, reflexive and categorical structural components. Psychosemantic reconstruction of Old East Slavonic primary structures has been conducted: assessmtnet, emotionality, reactivity, spatial and temporal world categorization were examined. The hypothesis that there is a different level of ethnical component of universal notions temporal stability and ontogenetic dynamics of ethnorelevant semantics from youthful till middle age was proved. Cross-cultural peculiarities of perception and assessment of multimodal semantics samples by participants of the experiment were recorded in the context of psychosemantic representation of ethnical consciousness in the cultural discourse. The border between akin and aloof in semantics of heterocultural objects and their fullness with ethnic signs is described. Ethnic-cultural, as well as sociocultural determinancy of these objects perceptionby East Slavonic people was stated. The conceptual structural model of ethnical consciousness was formulated on the basis of discovering its structurally-conceptual characteristics.
