Journal Title: Psychological journal - Year 2017, Vol 3, Issue 5
Abstract
The authors present the actual problem in Ukraine – the formation of civil identity. The country is experiencing a difficult period of political development, the question of the unity of the state and the preservation of territorial integrity has become acute. In this regard, the question of civic identity is sharply raised, because it is the factor that promotes the self-organization of individuals, united by belonging to one state as a set of «we», which supports a unified system of ideas, beliefs about the state, the country and itself as a member of society. The existing scientific achievements on the declared topics are analysed. The opinions of domestic, foreign authors and contemporary Ukrainian scholars have been researched and presented. Several different definitions of the concept of «civil identity» are analysed. It was discovered that the civic identity is identification with the community of citizens of national-state formation or the phenomenon of conscious and active citizenship, self-awareness of a member of civil society. Civic identity is often considered as a component of territorial identity. It is revealed that for formation of civic identity it is necessary to form the following structural components: cognitive, emotional-appraisal, value-orientation, activity (behavioural). The authors of the article presented the developed training program «I am a Conscious Ukrainian», which aims to promote the development of civic identity in adolescence through awareness of their belonging to their nation and the development of tolerance to other nations. After detailed study of existing programs, the best methods were chosen: art therapy, discussion, psychogymnastics, meditation-visualization, role-playing game, business game, elements of psychodrama and sociodrama.
