ABSTRACT:

The system of concepts which describe general psychological continuum of “ontological security-insecurity” is based on the approach of the English existential psychologist Laing. This system is studied in order to clarify and develop it due to the problems of values, their peculiarities and place in the structure of personal motivation. The part of the construct which is available to the empiric investigator is represented by the two methods of ontological security experience diagnostic which have passed psychometric test. This part is additionally validated by means of its comparison with the construct of Schwarz’s Inquiry of values which is widely used in cross-cultural investigations.
