Dynamics of the Actualization of Intrasubject Resources and the Success of the Subject

Purpose of the study: to study the connections between the dynamics of a subject’s professional development and the conditions of his internal environment, actualized as resources. Hypotheses: 1) The conditions of the subject’s internal environment, updated as resources at different stages of his professional development, change the strength of influence and valence (sign). 2) In different professional fields, the conditions of the subject’s internal environment as resources differ. 3) For persons with different social success (career, self-realization in the family, etc.), the dynamics of updating the conditions of the subject’s internal environment differ. 4) In areas of activity with different levels of management hierarchy (interval of job promotion), the connections between the dynamics of the subject’s professional development and the updated resources differ. The author’s methodology “Dynamics of professional life style” was used. Respondents assessed, in points from 0 to 8, the conditions of the social environment as “factors of professionalism”, the dynamics of their professionalism from 20 to 65 years (retrospectively and prospectively), and recorded their socio-demographic and job characteristics. 218 people were surveyed (104 civil servants, 56 managers, 58 teachers), 89 men and 129 women 30–60 years old (M = 40.4; SD = 9.1). The features of updating the conditions of the internal environment as intrasubjective resources were analyzed; Descriptive statistics, t-comparison for independent groups and multiple regression analysis (MRA), Forward method were used. A clarification of working concepts (professional development of the subject (PSS), social success, “high”/“flat” management hierarchy, operational mechanisms) is proposed. It has been established: the greatest variations in variables that periodically change the sign and strength of influence are noted over 10-year age intervals from 30 to 50 years, different for representatives of three spheres of activity; the greatest changes in variables are in the “final” part of the career (50–65 years). In a two-level structure — functional systems (FS), formed on the basis of its individual characteristics, and operating systems (OS), formed by the subject of activity, it is possible to distinguish operational mechanisms (OM) — processes of bringing individual conditions of the subject’s internal environment into an active state, processes “actions” of the system, phases of mobilization of the new composition of the system to achieve the goal. In conclusion it is stated: in the diversity of conditions of success a common scheme is distinguished — “Subject1 — functional systems — operational systems — operational mechanisms — Subject2” (S1—FS—OS—OM—S2); operational mechanisms (OM) are special and unique in different systems. The problem of intrasubjective resources is a problem of the second half of a career. The interactions of the conditions of the external and internal environment of the subject form the special space-time of his life activity, leading to the “accumulation” of his specific changes as an individual, subject, personality.
