Abstract:
One of the topical themes of foreign and domestic psychology is research on reflection. Unswerving interest causes a wide range of unexplored questions in the topic.\r\nThe object of the study: 70 students, 18 to 23 years of age.\r\nThe subject of the study: self-conception and reflection.\r\nThe purpose of the study: to identify the relationship between self-conception and reflection.\r\n1) Studying the characteristics of students\' self-esteem;\r\n2) Revealing the levels of development of their reflection;\r\n3) Determining the relationship between self-conception and reflection.\r\n\r\nHypothesis: students with a developed level of reflection can have high rates of self-conception.\r\nNovelty of the study: new results were obtained, revealing the relationship between reflection and self-conception.\r\nResearch methods: RS Panteleeva�s technique for self-conception research [1], E.E. Rukavishnikova�s definition of the level of reflection formation [2], Dembo-Rubinstein�s method for identifying self-esteem and Student\'s T-criterion.\r\nThe methodological basis of the study: the works of various authors on reflection (R. Decart, J. Locke, G.Gegel, I.Kant, SLRubinshtein, etc.) and self-awareness (self-conception) (Vygotsky, S.S. R. Panteleyev, V.V. Stolin, V.A. Stepanov, R. Burns, N.I. Sarjveladze and others).\r\n\r\nThe hypothesis put forward at the beginning of the study was not confirmed, no correlation between the students\' reflection and self-conception was found.\r\nThe indicator of self-confidence is found to be most pronounced and among the factors of self-conception the same can be said about the scale of self-acceptance.\r\nStudent\'s T-criterion for independent samples shows differences in the following scales: openness (p = 0.047) is higher in females than in males, self-guidance (p = 0.029) is higher in males, pronounced differences in self-worth (p = 0) which are much higher in females.\r\nConclusions:\r\n1. Students with a high level of reflection revealed expressed self-confidence and a sense of the power of their own selfhood.\r\n2. High self-esteem causes a high rate of self-incrimination and an indicator of openness, self-attachment.\r\n3. There are big differences in the level of reflection and self-esteem between females and males: 25% of females with high level of reflection, while male students only 3%.\r\nWe have analyzed the relationship between such categories as reflection and self-conception.
