Abstract
The aim of the research is to create the psychological and pedagogical program of the formation of life strategies of conditionally condemned minors and to use this program in the experimental work. According to the aim the research work deals with the phenomenology of life strategies of conditionally condemned minors; with objective conditions (serving a criminal sentence; macro- and microenvironment; dynamics of adaptation to conditional sentence) and with subjective intrapsychic features (life-purpose orientation and value system, time orientation, level of moral and legal reliability, locus of control). All of them provide the efficiency of the formation of life strategies of conditionally condemned minors. It is presented the component structure of life strategies of conditionally condemned minors (personal and behavioral component, time oriented component, moral and legal component). This structure causes their typology ("the situational consumer", "the infantile consumer", and "the self-sufficient altruist") which was revealed with the author's express method. The authors present the program which allows forming the life strategies of conditionally condemned minors step by step (diagnostic, forming, and control stages) through development and correction of structural components of strategy in the conditions of serving sentence without isolation from society. The program comprises informational and theoretical, skilled and practical methods and also psycho technologies which are selected taking into account age and psychological features of conditionally condemned minors. The program was tested on 198 conditionally condemned minors staying on the registry in penal inspection centers of the Directorate of the FPS of Russia of Ryazan region, of Moscow region, of Orenburg region, of Tambov region, of Moscow and also on 70 law abiding peers studying at the comprehensive school No. 68 of Ryazan. The materials of the research work can be used in the activity of penal inspection centers, in educational process of higher educational institutions.
