The novelty of the research lies in obtaining new empirical data on the features of the content and structural characteristics of the future family image in modern youth. This article provides empirical data confirming the relevance of the described problem in solving an urgent scientific problem -ensuring the formation of readiness of young men and women for marriage and family relations.

Personality Features That Contribute to Transition of Young People from Unregistered Marriage to Marital Relations

“…In modern studies of family psychology, there are, among other things, studies of the relations between partners living in the so-called "unregistered marriage" (Lidovskaya, 2009;Ryabikina et al, 2020, and others.). There are studies of the psychological readiness of young people for marital relations (Zholudeva, PERSONALITY AND CONTEMPORARY CHALLENGES 2009;Zimina, 2016;Orlova, 2013;Yarygina, 2007, and others). However, the question of what personality traits are inherent in young people who prefer living together in an unregistered marriage (cohabitation), and which are more characteristic of young people who prefer building their life together on the basis of marital relations, is of great scientific relevance.…”
