Psychoemotional Well-being and Features of Self-Development of Teenagers with Different Family Status

The article presents results of a research on the parameters of psychoemotional well-being and features of self-development in adolescents aged 14—17 (81 respondents included 27 children from an orphanage, 24 teenagers living away from their families and 30 teenagers living with their parents).It as argued that teenagers’ psychological well-being is closely connected with their orientation towards self-development.Recognising the importance of self-development in such spheres as goal-setting and self-realisation and at the same time having a low interest in them creates an internal conflict and leads to a decrease in psychoemotional well-being in the adolescent orphans.Psychoemotional well-being of the adolescents living away from their families depends on whether they have conflicts in the following spheres: education, social sphere, aesthetics, development of will.As for the teenagers living with parents, their psychoemotional well-being is affected by the contradiction between the increasing requirements and the actual level of their development.
