Sustainability Resources of Graduates of Organizations for Orphans and Foster Families with Different Profiles of Emotional Intelligence

Abstract

<p style="text-align: justify;">The article presents the results of a study of the sustainability resources of graduates of various forms of life arrangements of orphaned children (orphanage and foster family) with different profiles of emotional intelligence (EI): “self-directed EI”, “self-directed EI”, “balanced EI”. It is proved that the profiles of EI, the levels of interpersonal and intrapersonal intelligence do not depend on the conditions of upbringing before graduation, but depend on the gender of the respondent. In girls, the level of EI is reduced more often than in boys, and EI profiles are more often directed at themselves or others, and is less often balanced. It is shown that the most vulnerable is a group with an EI profile directed at others whose sustainability resources are weakly expressed or ambivalent; less vulnerable is a group with an EI profile directed at themselves, whose resources are at an average level; and a group with a balanced EI profile, whose sustainability resources are close to a high level. The targets of assistance for the development of psychological resources of graduates’ resilience, the mobilization of which can ensure successful integration in society, are highlighted. The use of the obtained data in the development of graduate support routes will contribute to the implementation of state policy objectives.</p>
