Abstract

The article presents the results of an empirical study revealing the role of different personal qualities in the choice of certain patterns of behavior in situations of cognitive dissonance. In the study on a sample of cadets (N=217), it was found that a certain ratio of personality qualities such as self-esteem, anxiety and locus of control are fundamental predictors in choosing a constructive or destructive strategy of behavior in a situation of cognitive dissonance. It has been empirically proved that the correlation between low anxiety, adequate self-esteem and internal self-regulation is typical for cadets choosing a constructive model of behavior in situations of cognitive dissonance that ensures the successful solution of a cognitive task. Cadets with a destructive strategy of behavior in such a situation have a statistically significant correlation of moderate or pronounced anxiety, inflated self-esteem and external regulation, which impedes getting out of a complex cognitive construct. And finally, the avoidant behavior model in cognitive dissonance is demonstrated by respondents with high anxiety, low self-esteem and external locus control. On the basis of the data obtained, a conclusion is made about the development of a special program for correction and enhancement of the emotional-volitional sphere of cadets during their studies at the university.
