Теоретические основы структурных компонентов и детерминант ролевого взаимодействия курсантов: метасистемный подход
The relevance of the study is conditioned by changes taking place in the Russian Armed Forces, which are associated with the growth of military conflicts, with reforms and reorganizations in the structure of the National Guard, etc. Therefore, it imposes certain requirements on the professional training of the military personnel of the National Guard, who must fulfill several roles simultaneously and harmoniously integrate them into within their personality. The purpose of the study stated in the article is a theoretical analysis of the cadets’ role behavior, identification of conceptual avenues of theoretical and empirical research in this area, as well as justification of the metasystem approach in the study of the cadets’ role behavior. Presumably, the metasystem approach is applicable to modeling cadets’ role behavior. We used the following research methods: problemological analysis of military personnel role behavior, comparison of empirical studies on role behavior in the field of military psychology. It is shown that the theoretical analysis of military personnel role behavior reveals that all studies can be divided into three large groups that create conceptual foundations for understanding the problem. Firstly, a significant part of the study is devoted to the analysis of consistent integration of different roles into the structure of military personnel personality. Secondly, we scrupulously studied the determinants and correlates of military personnel role behavior. Thirdly, an important role is played by the research aimed at studying mental models of military personnel’s team work, as well as their impact on the effectiveness of mastering the role of a senior officer. We established that the problem of cadets’ role behavior can be viewed in the context of the metasystem approach, which reflects the specific regularities of social reality within the framework of the phenomenon under study. We showed that the role-based development of cadets is implemented within the multidimensionally organized system complex, functional components (culture, society and personality) of which have a common root and are ontologically inseparable.
