Abstract

Introduction. Value and motivational guidelines play an important role in shaping students» career self-determination. Currently, significant changes are taking place in the value orientations and motives of young people. That is why the study of the relationship between value-motivational characteristics and career orientations becomes especially relevant.

Purpose setting. The task is to identify the relationship between career orientations, life aspirations (motives) and values of students of secondary vocational education.

Methodology and methods of the study. To achieve this goal, the «Career Anchors» technique (developed by E. Schein), the «Aspiration Index» technique (developed by E. Deci and R. Ryan) and the value orientation technique (developed by S. Schwartz) were used. Students from Krasnoyarsk institutions of secondary vocational education took part in the study as respondents.

Results. The results showed that the most significant career orientations for respondents were «Autonomy», «Lifestyle Integration» and «Service». Among less pronounced career orientations, young people consider «Stability of place of residence and work». Young people are dominated by internal aspirations (motives) related to relationships, health and personal growth. The values of hedonism, independence and achievement are of great importance to respondents. Students ranked the following values as less important: conformity, power and tradition.

Conclusion. As a result of the study, the leading career orientations, main life aspirations (motives) and the most significant values for students of secondary vocational education were identified. Significant relationships between these characteristics were also identified.
