- Abstract
In the article the authors deal with various approaches to the problem of determining and ranking values. Education has been chosen as a basic value. Peculiarities of how education is perceived and understood by young people in Germany and Russia have been taken into consideration. The data of two free associative experiments conducted in 2019 with German and Russian native speakers has been analyzed. The received associates are classified, according to the model of associative meaning created by V.A. Pischalnikova. The model of associative meaning includes a "fundamentally functional, dynamic correlation" of the following components: concept, conception, content area, association, operational reactions, which can reflect culturally determined meanings and emotionally evaluative relations between language units. The psycholinguistic model has been chosen by the authors, because it represents personal meaning as a functional phenomenon and allows us to trace semantic shifts of the meaning in the relation between stimulus and reaction. The socio-psychological interpretation of the data is given. The authors have come to the conclusion that negative perception of education speaks for the transformation of education as a social institution.
