Psychologiczna analiza procesu interioryzacji wartości

Abstract

The author presents the process of interiorization of values utilizing the knowledge base of cognitive psychology. This process is analyzed as the shaping of a cognitive network, which begins to play a role of a set of values. Valuation of objects and events is carried out by comparing them to standards. A shaped system of values assumes the form of a deductive system. The leading criteria, called axioms, assume the function of prime statements. They assume the leading place in the personality structure of a human and because o f that position they take part in every important decision. Deducted from them are more or less general criteria. The regulatory strength of the created system is decided not only by the position of individual values which play a role in the system, but also the cohesiveness of the whole axiomatic system.
