Abstract

V originále

The study explores self-regulatory mechanisms in the social domain in late adolescence. It is based on the Baltes’s Life Span Developmental Theory of self-regulatory mechanisms (selection, optimization, compensation, and selection based on a loss). The study maps the relationships between SOC mechanisms and the constructs of self-esteem and self-efficacy, including gender differences. The sample consisted of 665 secondary school students aged 15-20 years (mean age of respondents was 16,95 years), of whom 434 (65.3%) were women and 231 (34.7%) men. The results indicated that the internal differentiation of self-regulatory mechanisms in this developmental period has probably not yet been completed, since high correlation between optimization and compensation strategies was found. The most frequently used mechanism was optimization, while the loss-based selection was the least used mechanism. Positive correlation between self-esteem and self-regulatory mechanisms was found, particularly with selection, optimization and compensation mechanisms. Individuals with higher levels of social self-regulation seems to know how to take better care of social relations, which in the period of late adolescence significantly affect the self-esteem of the individual. Self-efficacy was also positively associated with social self-regulation, in particular with the mechanisms of selection, optimization and compensation.
