The article on the basis of empirical material discusses the features of psychosemantics of information and cultural environment (periodic press, Internet, television, radio, advertising, books, magazines, banners, showcase, etc.) in the consciousness of representatives of different age and sexual groups. The study of the information and cultural environment allows us to determine what internal semantic space (system of meanings) is formed by the recipients in relation to this environment, and what motivating effect it has on them. The semantic differential "SDIKS", created earlier in the course of studies of addictive personality, was used as the main tool. As a result of data analysis, the authors come to the following conclusions. It is common for representatives of all groups, both men and women, that the information environment encourages idleness and consumption, is perceived as manipulating consciousness and creating permanent psychological tension and conflicts of various modalities. Men are characterized by rational evaluation of the information environment and passive, weak emotional involvement in it. Women are characterized by a more emotional assessment of the information and cultural environment, which is appear as more criminal for women, more misanthropic, calling for enrichment, systematically influences on the female consciousness and more affecting the female emotional-affective sphere. The smaller the age and the more uncertain the social status of the recipients, the more ambivalent and emotional the attitude is manifested in the perception of the information and cultural environment.
