摘要：In the work, the authors have used correlation analysis, based on data gathered on a sample of 190 students, to test the hypotheses emerging from two basic theoretical models of relations between personality and social attitudes – the psychoanalytical and socialisational. The psychoanalytical model presupposes the existence of a protective mechanism facing an uncertain and threatening reality, with attempts at making this reality simpler, more specific and unambiguous. In accordance with these suppositions such a mechanism of self-deception and cognitive inaccessibility lies in the adoption of primarily conservative attitudes. The absence of significant correlations of conservative attitudes and emotional stability, intellect and self- -deception leads to the rejection of such a model. On the contrary, correlations between personality dimensions, psychoticism, agreeableness and conscientiousness and social attitudes connected to religiosity and sexual freedom are consistent with the socialisational model according to which personality mostly represents the framework, while attitudes signify the outcome of the socialisational process. Models based on the analysis of covariance structure indicate that the influence of personality on attitudes could be observed through the action of two determinants, a relatively permanent sensitivity to socialisational influences and to situationally changeable adaptational socialisation.
