Theoretical and methodological approaches to the research of involvement as a social psychological personality (review of foreign studies)
The article presents an overview of foreign studies on the problems of involvement as a socio-psychological phenomenon. The analysis of basic approaches to the definition of the concept of «involvement» has shown that in different approaches, when setting the boundaries of this concept, the attention of researchers is focused on the differences in the content of the concept of «involvement» from the content of related concepts («organizational commitment», «loyalty», «satisfaction», «passion», etc.). The analysis of these differences, in turn, makes it possible to identify the features of involvement as a psychological state and behavior. The analysis and generalization of the researchers’ views on the construct itself and its relationship with related concepts allowed us to formulate the prospects for studying involvement as a socio-psychological phenomenon.
