THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN SUBJECTIVE WELL-BEING OF LEGAL PROFESSIONALS AND THEIR PROFESSIONAL SELF-ASSESSMENT AND SUCCESS MOTIVATION

Abstract

Currently, the problem of subjective well-being is increasingly attracting researchers due to the need to determine the basis of the internal balance of the personality and its components. Of particular relevance is the study of the subjective well-being of the individual in the field of professional activity, since along with the objective conditions for the implementation of activities, there are personality characteristics that also affect professional success. The idea underlying the work was that one should distinguish between external and internal success, or external and internal subjective well-being, and the methods for detecting and studying these phenomena are different. External success is reflected in the status of the individual, a lawyer is a profession associated with a high social status. However, internal feeling, subjective well-being, is difficult to objectify and investigate. Subjective well-being in the professional sphere is a component of subjective well-being in general and is determined by satisfaction with professional activities and self-esteem as a professional. Professional self-esteem is an ambiguous psychological phenomenon. And our work is aimed at adding data on the determination of subjective well-being and the features of psychological well-being as conscious components of professional self-esteem and motivation for the success of legal professionals.
