Abstract

The paper presents the results of the validation of the author’s (O. Sannikova, V. Bedan) technique, aimed at ex-amining person’s proneness to experience loneliness. In contrast to the reaction as an instant response by experiencing loneliness to the situation considered as a threatening one by the subject, and unlike the mental state as a short-term, “fleeting” feeling, loneliness propensity is considered as a complex multileveled personal property, manifested in indi-vidual’s inclination to a certain activity (in emotional, cognitive, behavioral spheres), mobilization, readiness to respond in different situations by experiencing loneliness. The structural scheme of personal loneliness propensity in the context of the continual and hierarchical approach has been developed and described, as well as its structural components of different levels, belonging to the formal-dynamic level (a psychophysiological component), qualitative level (an emo-tional component – a set of affective representations of experiencing loneliness; cognitive – representations of loneli-ness in one’s mind; conative – external representations manifested in actions, behavior, expressions; a control and regulatory component which is the degree of control over various manifestations of loneliness), and content-personal level (reflexive-analytical, motivational, attitude, adaptive-protective components). The Personal Loneliness Propensi-ty Scale has been developed according to the requirements of psychometrics. There have been performed standardiza-tion and validation of the original scale, which have proved its high reliability, validity, discriminatory power, which makes it possible to apply it for research and practical use.
