Features of Volitional Regulation among Tuvans in the Conditions of Urbanization of Society

The article presents the results of a study of the features of volitional regulation among representatives of various generations of Tuvans living in the urban and rural regions. The study involved 773 people from Erzin (185 people), Mugur-Aksa (266 people), Kyzyl (173 people) and Moscow (149 people). Age of respondents: from 18 to 22 years old (203 people), from 23 to 35 years old (184 people), from 36 to 60 years old (223 people), over 61 years old (163 people). To evaluate the individual characteristics of volitional regulation in the respondents, the following techniques were used: the “Action Control Scale” by J. Kuhl; the "Questionnaire for revealing the expression of self-control in the emotional sphere, activity and behavior"; the technique for self-assessment of volitional traits; the Purpose in Life Test. Representatives of the older and younger generations differ significantly from each other in terms of behavioral self-control, self-assessments of the volitional qualities of the individual, and the PLT test. The greatest differences in will indicators between generations are observed among residents of Moscow. The results of a one-dimensional analysis of variance allow us to conclude that the differences in the indicators of volitional regulation are due to differences in the indicators of the PLT test.
