Abstract
This article presents a theoretical analysis of the key concepts within the value sphere of personality: values, value orientations, direction, attitudes, personal and life-meaning values. Particular attention is devoted to life-meaning values, which are considered the highest level of development of the individual’s value system. They possess personal significance, are filled with individual meaning, and form the foundation of the worldview position of the personality. The paper reveals their substantive content, specific functioning, and role in the organization of life activity. Life- meaning values act as motivating, regulating, and organizing factors that determine the trajectory of the life path and ensure coherence between internal attitudes and external conditions. Their subjective experience and influence on the formation of life meaning are emphasized, making them the central element of the inner world of the person. The interrelation of life-meaning values with processes of self-determination, personal growth, and social adaptation is examined. Thus, life-meaning values are interpreted as a system-forming component of consciousness, ensuring integrity, stability, and dynamics of personal development in the context of modern society.
