The content of the article was determined by the problem of positive worldview formation of teenage schoolchildren as a predictor of a safe educational environment. The lack of qualitative characteristics of the educational environment and, in particular, its safety presupposes great difficulties in the personal development of schoolchildren during the period of maturation. Improving the level of psychological safety and psychological culture in the socio-cultural space is a preventative means of maintaining personal mental health. The early providing of purposeful psychological aid based on the principles of humanity and pragmatism determines the change in the mental reality of a person and limits the identification of psychopathological symptoms of development.
The research was conducted on the basis of comprehensive schools of Kryvyi Rih city (Ukraine). To accomplish the task a comparative method of research organization (a cross section of data in different age groups of schoolchildren of the sample) was used. The methods employed in the research were designed to measure happiness in general, to estimate peculiarities of behavioral reactions in situations of uncertainty, to identify stress factors as positive worldview, confidence and constructive activity. For deeper analysis of the obtained data and revealing of dependence between indicators of worldview trends and the age of respondents a correlation analysis was carried out.
The received data can be a basis for further research work in peculiarities of strategies of behavior of teenage schoolchildren.
