Abstract
Introduction. The relevance of the study is in connection with changes in the world, including the processes in the higher education system, when transformations take place considering the interests of the national economy, is substantiated. A new view on the problem of studying the personal resources of a higher school teacher is presented, where special attention is paid to the search for functional formations that allow the most efficient implementation of professional activities and maintaining the functioning of one's own personality at a productive level. For the first time, within the framework of the developed meta-resource concept, an understanding of the life successfulness is proposed. The problem of the need to study the structural and functional organization of the life successfulness of a higher school teacher in order to identify and study its features is posed. Methods. The study involved 164 teachers of educational institutions of higher education from different regions of Russia from 27 to 77 years old. The study was conducted using the author's self-assessment methodology «Life Success». The survey was conducted by posting on Google Forms. Results. The following results were obtained: praxis, existential experiences and subjective assessment of one's success in life are most pronounced; the integral qualities of success and moral experiences are expressed to a lesser extent; the average value of the subjective assessment of success in life is 7.23 on a ten-point scale; in the first place in importance for a successful life are the values of family and health; positive significant relationships were found between reflexive mechanisms and integral qualities of success in life. Discussion. The results made it possible to draw conclusions about the presence of strengths and problems of the meta-resource of the life successfulness of the respondents. Strengths include: a large number of interconnections between the components of life successfulness; the severity of praxis experiences, productive life disposition, reflexive-ontological mechanism of life successfulness; proximity of the real value hierarchy to the ideal of success; functional significance of instrumental qualities and focus on success. The identified problems can be «points of growth» for the most productive functioning of the meta-resource of life successfulness.
