The study of occupational deprivation and its motivational and value determinants in students at the final stage of university studies

Abstract

The aim of the study is to theoretically substantiate and experimentally identify the motivational and value determinants that determine the appearance of professional deprivation in senior students. The article describes the impact of occupational deprivation on an individual and on the society of which he is a part. In the course of an empirical study, the main factors determining the process of choosing a profession were identified, as well as methods were selected to subsequently identify them in a representative sample during experiments. The article describes the process of conducting an experimental study and presents the results obtained. The novelty lies in the development of a methodology aimed at diagnosing occupational deprivation, as well as in identifying significant motivational and value factors that reduce the risk of its occurrence. The study reveals a correlation between personal interests, motives for choosing a profession and the level of professional deprivation among students. As a result of the study, it was found that professional deprivation among students decreases when choosing a profession that corresponds to their interests and personal goals, while choosing a profession based on external factors (financial accessibility, prestige) does not significantly affect the reduction of deprivation.
