The empirical study of the psychological structure of future psychologists’
professional competence is presented in the article. The development of professional
competence is characterized as a dynamic process which mobilizes
the external and internal resources in unpredictable conditions of everyday
life.
The study involved the students of Vinnytsia Mykhailo Kotsiubynskyi
State Pedagogical University, National Pedagogical Dragomanov University
and Borys Grinchenko Kyiv University, a total of 546 students.
In order to evaluate and measure the components of the structure of
professional competence of future psychologists, it is used in view of the definition
of this concept and approaches to its study.
In order to determine the place, role and significance of each component
that may act as a determinant of this process, factor analysis was performed
through the main components method with Varimax raw rotation.
On the basis of factor analysis, the psychological structure of professional
competence has been revealed as including motivational-value, operationalconative,
emotional-regulatory, reflexive-cognitive components.
The greatest semantic meaning was attributed to a factor called «motivational
and value». This factor includes indicators that reflect life and career
orientations, strivings for success and self-realization in future profession.
The second component, called «operational and conative», includes indicators
which reflect desire for changes. The third factor, «emotional and regulatory
», reflects the emotional and volitional activity of a student and includes
indicators of emotional intellect and self-regulation of a personality in new
situations. The fourth component, «reflexive and cognitive», includes intellectual
involvement in the process of mastering future professional activities via
the interest in knowledge, modeling and planning of one’s activities based on
available knowledge and readiness for the acquisition of new knowledge.
