Abstract

The modern labor market features and trends in
its development are summarized by the authors. The
professional preferences of modern high school students
are described. The study results of gifted high school
students’ professional self-determination, personal and
cognitive factors are presented in the article.
Gifted students’ ideas inconsistency about the labor
market and the current state of affairs, students' lack of
of their interests awareness, individual abilities, strengths
and weaknesses; episodic career guidance that involves a
passive student position were revealed by the experiment.
The authors show that the structure of the students’
interests who participated in the research work is
characterized by greater formation, clarity and
expressiveness than their peers’ in the control group.
A comparative analysis of boys and girls’ intelligence
development indicators (general, mathematical,
spatial, verbal) is presented. It is shown that in general
intelligence, first of all, due to mathematical and partly
spatial thinking, young boys have an advantage over
girls.
Five independent groups of interests and aptitudes
(educational and professional interests profiles) are
empirically identified: economics and law (management,
economics, law); humanitarian (philology, art, history, literary art); natural (biology, chemistry, medicine,
geography, risk and sport); engineering and technology
(physics, mathematics, computer science, engineering,
with a denial of interest in law and literary art); sociopedagogical (pedagogy, service, denial of interest in
science) are described. Empirically identified intellectual
support (cognitive correlates) of each presented profile is
performed. The authors investigated whether gifted high
school students’ choice of profession coincides with their
interests and abilities. Prospects for further research are
described.
