Abstract

The article analyzes the attention to the deep essence of myth as a scientific phenomenon, which is the primary form of awareness of the world both in ontogenesis and in human phylogenesis. The myth is interpreted as a special way of mastering the world, which directly affects the socialization of an individual at different stages of his development.
The features of the influence of family myth as the initial form of personality mythologization on the formation of a teenager’s own myth are studied. The existence of such function as the mythologization of family stories and stories in the structure of personality consciousness determines the constructive or destructive possibilities of forming own image, and in general can affect the assimilation and use of basic behavioral patterns of personality.
The role of an adolescent’s self-relation to the formation of a personal myth is clarified, which is expressed in the context of a person’s ideas about the content of the “Self” as a generalized sense of self. Adolescence is sensitive to the development of self-identity and the development of reflection as an indisputable thought process that is aimed at self-awareness, analysis and understanding of all components of a person’s life, which include: actions, speech, feelings, abilities, interpersonal relationships, character and so on.
A generalized description of the components of the structure of mythological consciousness is provided: the awareness of attitudes, restructuring of stereotypes, reflexive ability, as a qualitatively new level of personality selfawareness, as a stage of growing up. The factors contributing to the formation of an effective personal myth, as well as the factors of the problem of formation of an effective personal myth among teens, are identified. It is shown that the existence of such a function as the mythologization of family stories and stories in the structure of family consciousness may be similar to the function of socio-cultural myth, expressed in a smaller format, which determines constructively or destructively the possibilities of forming someone’s own image, and in general can influence and cause the use of basic behavioral patterns of personality.
