PSYCHOLOGICAL MECHANISMS OF PROFESSIONAL LANGUAGE PERSONALITY DEVELOPMENT. EXPERIMENTAL RESEARCH

Abstract

The article is devoted to the analysis of the author’s experimental research aimed at optimizing student’s independent work as a basic element of continuous development of professional language personality. The research included two types of experiments – stating and teaching. The first of them was designed to determine the current level of students’ acquisition of foreignlanguage professional content in the course of prepared and unprepared actualization, as well as to identify the negative trends impeding the full mastery of the language material. The results of the stating experiment predestined the structure of training aimed at optimizing independent work – achievement of high assimilation results while minimizing students’ time and effort. In this regard, the teaching experiment was based on two components. The first one included teaching students the system of mnemic action operations, forming the psychological mechanism of speech comprehension and memorization and creating the optimal effect of reproducibility of cognitive activity. The second component was to stimulate critical rethinking of the speech content and generate its reasonable reconstruction. The analysis of the teaching experiment results and their comparison with stating experiment indicators proved at the level of statistical significance the positive influence of the offered techniques on shaping the culture of students’ independent work.
