Subject-activity approach to the study of motivational factors of officers’ personality

On the basis of subject-activity approach, we consider motivational conceptual characteristics of officers’ personality traits, their relationship with professional activities in special circumstances. Based on synthesis of existing views on the problem of professional motivation, we offer its structural model, based on this methodological approach. We revealed the content (motives and goals) and appearances (ways and means) of motivation in professional activities. Based on structured driving forces, we revealed the internal motivations that determine orientation of military activity in professional behavior and regulation of objectively existing conditions and situations of professional activity. We investigated their role in formation of professional activity motivational factors. The data show that the motivation of an officer will be predetermined by synthesis of capabilities, abilities and his own activity, as well as by the requirements of the activity, in terms of its content, features, tools, and conditions.
