The Specifics of the Content and Psychological Structure of the Meaning of the Word <i>Soviet</i> (According to the Psycholinguistic Experiment)
The article presents the results of a psycholinguistic experiment conducted to identify the content and modeling of the psychological structure of the meaning of the word Soviet in the minds of the generation born at the turn of the century and formed under the influence of information about the Soviet stage of the country's development, which is transmitted today in various types of discourses. The results obtained allowed us to draw conclusions about the superficial, "mosaic" and contradictory nature of the knowledge of modern young people about the past of Russia, that on the one hand, causes instability and ambivalence of the attitude of young people to the history of our country, and, on the other, allows changing the historical memory of the people, which can have quite predictable consequences.
