DOI: 10.23951/2782-2575-2023-2-21-30
The article deals with the theoretical and methodological aspects of the concepts of “maturity” and “psychological maturity” of a personality. Russian and international researchers’ psychological approaches and views on various aspects of the category “maturity” are scientifically substantiated. Interim conclusion of the study: the definition of personal “maturity” has not been fully clarified to date and requires further scientific and applied research. The concept of “psychological maturity” is reflected in the context of both ontogeny and socialization. Based on existing scientific views, the psychological components of a mature personality are defined. Psychological approaches to studying mature and psychologically mature individuals are analyzed, drawing a parallel between human and psychological maturity. This analysis systematizes the characteristics of a psychologically mature person from a humanistic perspective and presents different levels of psychological maturity. The paper also states that personal maturity is reflected in activity motives, social competence, a high level of responsibility, and a positive attitude toward society.
Keywords: maturity, psychological maturity, personality, maturation, approaches to understanding maturity, concepts, ontogeny, socialization, characteristics of a mature person, stages of psychological maturity, approaches, characteristics of a psychologically mature person
