THE TYPES OF PERSONALITY AND PREFERENCES OF COGNITIVE STRATEGIES IN ARTISTIC CREATION OF YOUTH


SUMMARY:

The current study investigated preferences for cognitive strategies in artistic creation in students with different types of personality, defined by the relation between aesthetic sensibility and depression. The purpose of the research is to reveal the differences between different personality types of students in their preference for cognitive strategies in artistic creation. Methods: The typology, developed by F.M. Podshyvailov, L.I. Podshyvailova, M.V. Shepelova (2020), was used for defining the students’ personality types. There are 4 types of students by the relation of aesthetic sensibility and depression: I type “Avatarity”; II type “Individity”; III type “Vitality”; IV type “Personality”. A questionnaire “Artistic orientation of paintings perception” was used for the assessment of preference for cognitive strategies in the artistic activity of students. We hypothesized that the differences in students' preference for cognitive strategies are due to their personality type. The results revealed that there are significant differences between the III-type and I, II, IV-types of students in the value of Analogization, namely, the III-type has the lowest mean value of this indicator among all types; II-type – is the highest. There are also significant differences between the III-type and I, II-types of students in the value of Demonstration, namely the III-type has the lowest mean value of this indicator among all types; II-type – is the highest. Students with different types of personality seem to have different preferences for cognitive strategies in artistic activity, namely Analogization and Demonstration of the artist's personality in a work of art. Thus, the differences in Combination and Reconstruction are not statistically significant. The results claim the necessity of artistic perception development, especially including cognitive strategies as a property that directs a personality to achieve harmony with the environment in the process of interaction.
