The article discusses the possibilities of the semantic analysis method for studying the phenomenon of a resource. The use of this method is dictated by the need to appeal to the individual intrasubject experience of the individual, appeal to the system of meanings and values through which a person perceives the surrounding reality, forms an idea of the world and of itself. The paper uses the associative experiment method, modified method “Conditional interlocutorˮ, “Verbal-figurative translationˮ. The main parameters of semantic analysis of utterances are defined, and examples illustrating the specifics of the parameters are shown. The main parameters of semantic analysis of utterances are defined, and examples illustrating the specifics of the parameters are shown. The semantic characteristics of drawing images of the “resourceˮ are substantiated, and their qualitative and quantitative representation in the group of teenagers is shown. Using the method of semantic analysis of statements and analysis of graphic images allows getting versatile data for the formation of the semantic field of the concept under study. The analysis of statements makes it possible to structure variants of meanings and the degree of awareness of the concept. Graphical analysis helps to identify the individualisation of semantics.
Mechanisms of psychological protection, meaningfulness of life and its quality, the strategies of adult life with visual limitations are identified in the article on the basis of the correlation of coping behaviours (n=49). These strategies are characterised by varying degrees of productivity – from the least productive, a strategy of withdrawal to the most productive, a strategy of concentration on the case. The significant contribution of protective and coping activity to the specifics of those ways of life that a person chooses for himself in conditions of development hindered by a defect is shown. The obtained data can serve as a basis for the development of programmes of psychological prevention and support of adults with disabilities.
The article is devoted to the study of phenomenology of psychological problems of adults with disabilities. An attempt is made to classify problems in the context of life trajectories analysis.
