摘要：The authors analyze young people’s value-based orientations. The study reveals that family values and children’s well-being are dominant for Ukrainian youth. The paper analyzes the advantages of children’s upbringing in family-style orphanages. The paper aims to analyze the impact of communicative practices on the success of children’s socialization in family-style orphanages. The total number of research subjects was 39 (20 boys and 19 girls). To obtain the necessary information, the authors stuck to general scientific theoretical research methods, namely: the analysis of scientific and methodological sources, surveys, questionnaires, an expert evaluation method, a pedagogical experiment, a pedagogical observation and mathematical statistics methods. The evaluation of the results was carried out by experts (n = 87): psychologists, educators, social workers. The results of the study showed the following positive changes in the development of communicative skills in the research subjects: a decreased level of the adolescents’ authoritativeness (Lemp = 94.5 - 97, p ≤ 0.01 for the boys; Lemp = 82.5 - 83.5, p ≤ 0.001 for the girls); a decreased selfishness level (Lemp = 96.5 - 98, p ≤ 0.01 for the boys; Lemp = 82.5 - 84.5, p ≤ 0.001 for the girls); reduced aggression (Lemp = 92 - 96, p ≤ 0.01 for the boys; Lemp = 80.5 - 84.5, p ≤ 0.01 for the girls); reduced suspicious behaviour in the adolescents (Lemp = 92.5 - 98, p ≤ 0.01 for the boys; Lemp = 81.5 - 84.5, p ≤ 0.01 for the girls); positive changes in subordination towards a socially acceptable level (Lemp = 95 - 97.5, p ≤ 0.01 for the boys; Lemp = 83 - 84, p ≤ 0.001 for the girls).
