The article reveals issues related to formation of moral self-awareness in the process of psychological counselling. The meaning of the concepts: “consciousness”, “moral”, “moral self-awareness”, “counselling”, “psychology”, “psychological counselling” is clarified. A classification of psychological counselling is presented. A review of literature by domestic and foreign researchers on fostering moral self-awareness in adolescents is made. It is investigated that the American psychologist Hall (1904) first covered the issue of formation of moral self-consciousness in adolescents. It is determined that the functions of moral self-consciousness include self-control, self-perception, self-approval, self-understanding, self-improvement. It is found that scientists distinguish 2 types of self-awareness: subjective and objective. It is emphasized that self-awareness is the ability to clearly and realistically evaluate one’s behavior. The moral self-consciousness of adolescents with high, medium and low levels of self-esteem is considered. In addition, emphasis is placed on the fact that moral traits are the factors that shape a person. It has been found that moral self-awareness is based on the following factors: cognitive, emotional and behavioral. It is noted that the ability to communicate plays an important role in formation of moral self-awareness. The signs that prompt a teenager think about visiting a psychologist have been identified. It is proved that knowledge about one’s strengths in moral self-awareness helps adolescents to form their own moral well-being. It is found that conducting simulation games by a psychologist during a group training allows a specialist to determine the level of moral self-awareness of an adolescent, as well as to form strong moral virtues. It is proved that a game helps to conduct an effective psychological counselling, because a child feels comfortable, relaxed, openly shares thoughts and feelings. A remote form of psychological counseling is considered. It is emphasized that a psychologist works with a teenager, as well as with his/her parents. It was found that psychological counseling comprises a diagnostic and a therapeutic part.

“…The role of empathy in morality and moral identity has been investigated by a number of researchers. Moreira, DeSouza and Guerra (2018) found a positive association between empathic concern (an intrapersonal outcome of empathy) and moral identity. Another study on the relationship between moral identity and empathy shows that empathy is positively correlated with moral identity for lonely individuals, but not for non-lonely ones (Jiao, 2018).…”

“…Empathy is an emotional response triggered by observing other people's experiences (Moreira, DeSouza & Guerra, 2018). In the book chapter "Empathy: Negotiating the Border between Self and Other," Davis (2004) argued that empathy is an emotion involving "a transformation of the observed experience of another person into a response within the self" (Davis, 2004, pp.…”

Empathic Feelings towards "The Myriad Things"

Objective: in the present thesis, I utilized an online survey to measure the role of Chinese cultural beliefs and other morality measures (empathic concern, perspective taking, moral identity) on the emotional experiences of empathy. Method: 74 European American identified participants (53 women, 18 males, 1 gender non-binary, 1 self-describe as 'no gender, assigned female at birth and female presenting') completed an online survey via Qualtrics. The survey consisted of measures of Chinese cultural beliefs of empathy, empathic concern and perspective taking in dispositional empathy, moral identity, and emotional responses to three social exclusion scenarios with different targets of empathy (an individual, a group and another species). Results: Empathic concern positively predicted feelings of empathy in the scenario where the target of social exclusion was a group (i.e., the group scenario). No other morality measure predicted empathy in any scenario. Endorsement of the Chinese cultural beliefs of empathy positively predicted anger in the group scenario, and negatively predicted indifference in the other species scenario. Conclusion: Results suggest that Chinese cultural beliefs and Confucian concepts, on empathy or other virtues, are relevant among European American young adults. This implies the value of Confucianism and Chinese cultural beliefs as an intellectual resource for psychological research in Chinese or non-Chinese cultural groups. Future research on empathy and/or morality should take account of non-Western cultural beliefs and study them in more depth.
