This article is devoted to the study of the relationship of value orientations and attitudes to communication in codependent women of different ages. In accordance with the idea of the study, we studied 225 women aged 20 to 55 years, who were divided into three groups depending on the identified level of codependency (high, medium and low). Research hypotheses: 1. It is possible that co-dependent women from different age groups have different value orientations; 2. In women, in accordance with the level of co-dependent behavior, there may be differences in the structure of the hierarchy of value orientations; 3. There may be a relationship between communicative attitudes and value orientations in codependent women. In the course of the empirical research, the following methods of psychological testing were used: the scale of codependency by B. Weinhold, J. Weinhold; the Method of “Value orientations” by M. Rokich; the Method of diagnosing the need to search for sensations by M. Zuckerman and the Method of diagnosing the communicative attitude by V. V. Boyko. The results obtained during the study can be used in the further work of consultants providing psychotherapeutic assistance to addicts and their family members.
