Life priorities and driving success in the minds of Russian students: the experience of sociological research

Life success is a complex, multidimensional concept that has an objective and subjective side, which greatly complicates the search and analysis of what determines the understanding of life success, as well as the determinants that affect value orientations and, accordingly, life success strategies. Student youth is an active social group, which in the near future will have an impact on the life of Russian society. The value orientations that form among student youth determine their life strategy; act as determinants that will form the basis of the model of life success for young people. The sociological research made it possible to identify the key determinants of success in life, once again confirm the variability of behavior patterns of student youth in relation to achieving success in life.
