The article presents the results of an empirical study in the field of specific features of the volitional regulation in the process of foreign students’ adaptation to the cross-cultural environment. A hypothesis is put forward about the relationship between the level of development of indicators of the volitional regulation and the success of the process of adaptation to a new socio-cultural and educational environment.
The study involved 250 foreign students of Penza State University (ethnic community - Arabs; age structure of respondents: from 17 to 24 years old, average age - 20.1; gender of the respondents: men - n = 125, women - n = 125).
In the current research there was used a set of diagnostic methods such as: "Questionnaire for identifying the severity of self-control in the emotional sphere, activity and behavior" (G.S. Nikiforov), "Action control scale" (Yu. Kuhl); “Formalized modification of the self-assessment method (SA)” (Dembo-Rubinstein); “Test of meaningful life orientations” (D.A. Leontiev); a questionnaire concerning a number of demographic characteristics of respondents and an assessment of the level of satisfaction with new conditions in the cross-cultural environment (climate, culture, food, living conditions, education, leisure, etc.).
It has been found that the success of the adaptation process of foreign students to the cross- cultural environment is interconnected with a number of indicators of the volitional regulation: OD-disposition of the personality, social self-control, meaningfulness of life goals and a certain set of volitional qualities.
The applied aspect of the problem could be integrated in the development of well-timed aid to build a system of socio-psychological support and to support the individuals in situations of social or life changes.
Keywords:adaptation, volitional regulation, volitional qualities, self-control, foreign students, cross-cultural environment.
