Charactiristics of motivation in corellation with envirpmental conditions at early embriogenesis and ontogenesis

VIII Intern. Crimean Conference, Sudak, Crimea, Ukraine, p.104-105

System of human motivation includes needs, interests, inclinations, aspirations, drives, aims, ideals, etc. Needs reflect connections between human organism and environment and between personality and society. Emotionality trends and needs for socialized emotional experiences (SEE) serve as essential features of individuality and influence creativity, occupational choice, interactions and compatibility with other people, moral views and world-view, level of social achievements (B.I.Dodonov, 1978).

SEE indices in inhabitants of Saint Petersburg in correlation with environmental conditions of month of birth and month of conception were studied with the test-questionnaire by B.I.Dodonov. Average monthly vaues of the following indices for 20 and more years were used: S – area of sunspots, G – long-term potential of tidal power of Moon and Sun, IMF – interplanetary magnetic field, Dst – disturbed storm time, T – temperature, R – precipitation, DL – day length. Information about 917 men and 1388 women born 1930-1990 was collected in 2005-2007.

Changes in SEE indices in correlation with month of birth, at the significance level p?0,001, were shown. For example, praxical SEE in men are 7,6 for the ones born in January and 6,33 for the ones born in October; altruistic SEE in women are 6,66 for the ones born in March and 7,65 for the ones born in November.

The results of correlation analysis, except the indices and SEE types with correlations less significant than at 0,1 level, are shown in the table below (b – month of birth, c – month of conception).

Note: Aq – acquisitive SEE, Pr – praxical SEE, Gl – glorificative SEE, Hd – hedonistic SEE, Gn – gnostic SEE, Pg – pugnative SEE, Cm – communicative SEE, Es – esthetic SEE, Rm – romantic SEE. The correlations indices at the level of significance p?0,05?0,001 are set off in bold and underlined.

The shown correlations demonstrate noticeable distinction by gender. Since we use average values of the indices and since the geocosmic conditions at the moment of testing (day time, month and year) “shade” the true picture, the real correlations indices are certainly at a higher level of significance. It makes the shown regularities even more valuable.

For studying year of birth influence, data about 3631 inhabitants of Saint Petersburg born 1925-1990 was collected and processed in 2005-2007. Every SEE need has significant differences by year of birth, p?0,05?0,001. The correlation analysis involved several indices. Numerous correlations were revealed at p?0,05?0,001. The indices G and IMF appear as the most powerful ones but the hierarchy of leading indices can change when considering a certain period of time. The results also demonstrate essential varieties by gender.

Therefore, environmental conditions at early embryogenesis and ontogenesis influence motivation system, and consequently psychological types in people, which, in turn, triggers social processes.
