Abstract
Based on empirical data, the article analyzes the values of relatively large and comparable professional groups, officers of the Armed Forces and police officers of Russia. The aim of the research is to understand the semantic constructions through which the respondents symbolize their attitude to the surrounding reality. To do this, they were asked to write their favorite proverb, which they try to "match" in their behavior. The authors proceeded from the assumption that interiorized statements of the folklore type are life guidelines (social values) for representatives of professional groups. And at the informal level they are the regulators of their life. The study made it possible to determine the "boundaries" of the proverbial picture of the world of Russian officers and police officers. Further, within the established boundaries, four groups of statements were obtained. The first is proverbs and sayings about labor, work; the second is about human qualities, relationships during service, camaraderie and interpersonal communication. The third is about responses to external stimuli and approaches to decision-making. The fourth is about corporatism, professional solidarity, individualism and enterprise. The article describes the most significant fragments of the dispositional picture of the world of representatives of both professional groups. Typical personality traits and the social identity of professional groups recreated as a result of the research are determined by the specifics of the activity. The discovered properties are within the boundaries of universal human terminal values and have a constructive, solidarizing orientation. At the same time, it became possible to understand what value set prevails in the ranks of the police and the Armed Forces of our state, the originality of their perception of the world, taking into account professional experience.
