Abstract

Health limitations are traditionally considered in psychology as difficult living conditions determining the specifics of personal development and related to the necessity of updating the resource system. The problem of the resource content specifics in the situation of health limitations did not find proper attention in psychology for a long time. The variety of external and internal resources raises the question about the factors causing them, about the search for the person’s qualities or abilities determining the resources updating. The paper presents the semantics of the resource concept in the group of adolescents with visual impairments, describes the basic interrelations of resources and cognitive-personal characteristics (reflection, self-efficacy), resources and coping strategies. Most frequently, visually impaired adolescents define a resource as a means to achieve a goal, as a potential and opportunities available to a person. The main function of a resource for teenagers is to help and support. Less frequently, the adolescents use the references to personal qualities as a resource. From the point of view of visually impaired adolescents, the social support resource is the most significant, and the stress control resource is less significant, which can be explained by age specifics. The authors identified fair direct correlation relationships between such resources as confidence, social support and parameters of self-efficacy and reflection. For visually impaired adolescents, the systemic use of parameters of reflection and resources proved to be important. The set of reflection parameters is both a health resource predictor and a multiple coping predictor. The use of a set of reflection parameters by adolescents determines the application of the social support and health resource. The communication reflection has the greatest influence on the use of the social support resource. The systemic use of the coping resources determines the self-efficacy parameter.
