Abstract

The article is devoted to studying interpersonal characteristics of Russian and foreign students training in the specialty of ®Linguistics¯ and the impact of these characteristics on students' performance results. The methods ®subjective control level¯, ®type of thinking¯, ®tendency to victim behavior¯ were chosen for the study. The interrelation of personality characteristics of foreign and Russian linguistics students and their learning outcomes were identified with the help of correlation analysis. The analysis showed that demonstration of externality by foreign students has a direct impact on their performance results. The higher level of Russian language foreign students have, the easier it is for them to develop their skills and show high performance while training in the subjects related to their professional sphere. The influence of type of thinking and country of residence on the indicators of subjective control and performance of foreign and Russian students were estimated by the method of variance analysis. It was revealed that type of thinking does not affect the basic investigated parameters, but the country of residence has a direct impact on the student's internality and learning activity in general and vocational subjects apart from the subject ®Physical education¯.
