| Summary: | This study features the relationship between the interaction of the individual with reality and the transformation of one’s life. The analysis and synthesis of domestic and foreign theoretical concepts allowed the authors to identify two key aspects of interaction with reality, which determine the constructive and destructive vector of life transformations. The development of personality and constructive changes in one’s life path are associated with the restructuring of reality on the basis of selective, selective, free choice, balance of openness/closeness and inclusion/distancing. This interaction results in an expansion of capabilities and adaptive resources of the individual. Situations of violation of psychological security and subjective comfort of the personal system, and threats to the Self of the individual distort the interaction with reality through the activation of psychological defense mechanisms. Dysfunctionality and scarcity of psychological defense mechanisms determine the preservation of the current life situation, personality stagnation, or regression and decay. The paper describes the role of socio-cultural factors in the process of distorted perception and interaction with reality. The results can be used for psychological and pedagogical support. |
