Biopsychic substructure
Abstract
It is stated in the article that the integrity of the ontogenesis of the psyche should be considered in another plane, i.e. as the integrity of the human way of life from birth to death. It is noted that at the same time it should not be abstracted from the anatomical-morphological structures. After all, the specificity of human ontogenetic development lies in the fact that it obeys both the actions of biological laws (as well as the development of animals), and the actions of social and historical laws. It is shown that the correlation between biological and mental in the personality always changes its configuration, changes its meaning: one thing when it comes to this relationship at very deep levels, the existence of root leaning, the needs of organizm, and completely different– the combination of biological and mental, for example, in activities. In some studies, it is shown that the correlation between biological and mental changes in the personality in the process of ontogenesis. It is noted that the biological and mental principles function in man together: these are two processes that coexist, work on each other. They are relatively independent and they unite, and create, in fact, the so called personality. It is found that considering the biopsychic substructure, we should not forget our initial logic of personality’s ontogenesis. It is stated that we understand the emergence of personality as a holistic carrier of the human psyche, as a result of a combination of life, a very long association of biological processes and social processes. It is shown that the psyche itself is the resultant force, the resultant vector of the union of these two wings, and in this sense, if we keep in mind our notions of ontogenesis and need as an energetic and informative force, the concept of biopsychic in general should be removed, because all biological in the personality is human; it is not purely biological, it is also social at the same time. It is concluded that, on the other hand, all that we know about the personality, of course, is social: the relationship, human activities, relations, ideas. All this exists due to the fact that there is body as a whole above the brain. Therefore, this structure is represented as initial, root, and psychic.
