PSYCHOLOGICAL WELL-BEING IN YOUTH: REFLECTIVE ASPECTS

The article analyses the content and structural features of the representation of the category of “psychological well-being” in the perception of youth. The study observes the reflection of individual components of psychological well-being as a resource for maintaining the life quality during social crises. We highlighted and analysed the content of the activity, socio-psychological, personal-value components of the reflection of psychological well-being. We revealed that the personal-value component forms the basis of youth understanding of psychological well-being. Reflection of the activity component of psychological well-being reflects the awareness of resource activities. Reflection of the social network is one of the leading ways of maintaining an individual’s psychological well-being. The most represented in the youth understanding are personal resources, which can be conditionally attributed to the components of positive relations with the environment, autonomy and competence
