The article examines several
approaches to studying the phenomenon of "style", that exist in
modern psychology. Some researchers associate the concept of "style"
with the adaptive mechanisms of the human psyche (A. Adler, R. Stagner), others
consider "style" as part of the system of interaction of the subject
with the environment (V. Tolochek, B. Vyatkin).
The article describes the
development of the semantics of the concept of "style" in
psychological researches. Originally, this concept appeared in the works of A.
Adler, G. Allport and was associated with the growing interest of society in
the individuality of man. Understanding that each person has a peculiar style,
opened the possibility of knowing the depth and diversity of the inner world of
a man. But the main issue – the opposition of the individuality of a person to
the influence of society - remained unresolved (Z. Freud, B. Skinner).
The representatives of Soviet
psychology actively engaged in the same issue in the early of the twentieth
century. They solved the problem of increasing the efficiency of labor without
personal deformation of the worker and through the disclosure of his potential
(A. Gastev, V. Bekhterev). One of the results of this work was the emergence of
the concept of "individual style of activity", which reflected the ability
of the subject to develop personal qualities in accordance with the
requirements of the activity and at the same time to change the conditions of
activity in accordance with their ideas about achieving the goal.
The article analyzes the place and role
of the concept of "individual style of activity" from the point of
view of the psychology of education. Formation of an individual style of
activity begins from the moment of inclusion of the subject in public activity
and continues throughout all stages of training. Being manifested in
educational activity, individual style of activity is then transferred to the
field of specialized activity. Upon completion of training, the individual
style of activity becomes a condition for the graduate's readiness to perform
professional duties.
The article substantiates the use of
the concept of "individual style of activity" in the psychology of
education, which will make it possible to effectively design a system of
psychological and pedagogical support for the professional development of
students taking into account their individual characteristics.
