Abstract

The article is devoted to the problem of research of the level of humane relationships formation by primary pupils on the criterion “Emotional-value attitude”. Based on the fact that «humane parent-child relationships» are such bilateral dynamic subject-subject interpersonal relationships, which are the foundation for the synthesis of moral knowledge, motives, feelings that determines the conscious mutual emotional and value attitudes of parents and children who are persistently manifested in real behavior, the author has identified a three-component structure of humane relationships between parents and children of primary school and teenagers, which contains cognitive, emotional, value and behavioral components. The indicators of emotional-value component were determined: the ability to recognize their own emotional states and manifestations, emotional-value attitude towards parents, need to feel the experience of parents, empathize with them; the need and desire to act in accordance with moral standards, to make moral decisions voluntarily for the benefit of parents; the ability to reflect.
Using indicators of emotional-value criterion and a set of interrelated and complementary diagnostic methods and techniques (the adapted method by E. Listik «Assess your own emotions, the method of projective drawing “My family”, the method by D. Bidzhieva “Scale of a child’s attachment to members of his or her family”, the method by I. Dermanova “What is good and what is bad”, etc.) of primary pupils were conditionally divided into three groups. The first group consisted of primary pupils who are fully aware of their parents’ emotions, the need to feel their parents’ feelings, manage their emotions, and who are ready to empathize with their parents; relationships with parents are characterized by a lack of conflicts. The second group included children who did not fully recognize their parents’ emotions; who are not always ready to show empathy in their relationships with their parents. The third group consisted of teenagers who had almost no empathy for parents, the emotional attitude towards parents is negative, as well as the degree of satisfaction with communication with their parents is low; relationships are characterized by the presence of regular conflicts.
