Psychological resources of the family as a factor in the formation of success of high school students

The work reflects the importance of using the psychological resources of the family in the process of becoming successful students. The author examines the main components of social success, studying the levels of their formation. In the context of high school education, success is considered not so much academic but rather social, reflecting the effectiveness of students’ activities and its recognition by the teenager and others. High school is characterized as a space where not only educational but also creative, scientific, and research activities are possible; therefore, the opportunities for students to become successful are wider. At the same time, the concept of success is analyzed from the point of view of the self-perception of a high school student as a successful (or unsuccessful) person. This work emphasizes the role of the family as an environment in which the primary adaptation and socialization of the child take place. It is the resources of the family that are effectively used to support and stimulate the educational and social activities of students and ensure psychological comfort. The work reflects the role of the family in supporting and assisting high school students in educational, creative, and scientific activities, as well as in problematic and conflict situations. The author conducts not only theoretical and methodological but also practical research aimed at exploring the ideas of senior schoolchildren about success and identifying the importance of using family resources. As the main conclusions in the work, the author’s recommendations on the activation of family resources are proposed.
