KUPAVTSEV, Timofey S. et al. THESAURUS CONSTRUCTIONS OF STUDENTS' SELF-FULFILLMENT AND PSYCHOLOGICAL WELL-BEING IN UNIVERSITY EDUCATION. Práx. Educ. [online]. 2021, vol.17, n.44, pp.344-361.  Epub June 10, 2022. ISSN 2178-2679.  https://doi.org/10.22481/praxisedu.v17i44.6694.

The purpose of this article is to reveal personal manifestations and confirmations of students' self-fulfillment in order to identify their psychological well-being in the process of learning in the Russian higher school. The study applied the method of thesaurus analysis by which the authors processed students' responses during a special survey. This method made it possible to highlight the semantic markers of students' self-fulfillment with their subsequent clustering into three sense thesauri: the thesaurus of self-fulfillment readiness; thesaurus of the self-fulfillment actions; thesaurus of self-fulfillment activators. In accordance with the data of the survey, the study identified three leading narrative dominants of students' psychological well-being in learning: ego-inclusion in the educational process, comprehensive disclosure of personal abilities and acceptance in the university community. These dominants formed the basis for a special study to determine the level of students' self-fulfillment and their psychological well-being in university training. The summarized results showed that the process of university education provides the necessary conditions and opportunities for self-fulfillment of most of the students surveyed in the study.

Keywords : Students’ self-fulfillment; Thesaurus analysis; Semantic markers; Narrative dominants.
