Possibilities of Diagnostics of Self-Concept and Self-Attitude to Demonstration of the Features and to Functionality of I-Boundaries

The article continues the theme of the possibilities of mediated psychodiagnostics of the characteristics and functions of the psychological boundaries of personality in the context of self-attitude and provides an overview of potentially suitable techniques. Within the concepts of the individual’s health and "illnesses" authors systematize the characteristics of I-boundaries in the system of bipolar measurements (structural, energy, dynamic, contact) and show the possibility of their detection and determination by means of structurally-substantial and qualitative analysis of the Self-concept and self-interpretations. The functions of I-boundaries in the provision and control of the dialogue between I and non-I are examined among techniques for diagnostic of self-attitude, subjective control, crisis identity, existence etc. Constructiveness of boundaries in defenses of I analyzed in the area of priority of self-attitude protection objects: psychodiagnostics of cognitions and affects of defense style.
