Summary: | The article is the third article in a series of publications “Motivation of trade union membership as a component of inter-group adaptation of students and teachers in a united trade union of a university” [7; 8]. The article presents the model of involvement into the trade union movement as the determinant of intergroup adaptation of diverse groups inside educational trade union organizations. The principles of socio-psychological modeling are exemplified by the example of the results of the empirical research which covered primary trade union organizations of 4 universities and 7 secondary schools of Moscow. Total sample was 629 people, among them: 205 professors, 260 students, 164 teachers, and 37 of them were young teachers. Each group in the course of the intergroup adaptation has its own structure of involvement, which includes cognitive, emotional, behavioral components. Ranking order of the components, as well as their fullness depend on the group’s belonging to the generation and the current level of efficiency of trade union membership. In more effective organizations, the structure of involvement is stable, including: 1) emotional, 2) behavioral, 3) cognitive components that can quantify their fullness depending on the particular organization. In less effective trade union organizations - the structure is volatile, the components of involvement are unsettled. Stability and balance of structures of involvement of diverse groups into the trade union organization determine their determination of inter-group adaptation.
