Structure of the paper: The paper consists of an annotation in Romanian, English and Russian, table of contents, introduction, three chapters, conclusions and recommendations, 143 pages of text, bibliography (222 sources) and appendices (7); it contains 27 figures, 25 tables. 9 scientific papers based on the research findings were published. Key words: introspection, quasi-reflection, systemic reflection, personality maturity, selfactualization, subjective experience of loneliness, dependence on communication, general experience of loneliness, young people. Research area: 511.01- General psychology. Object of the research: specific traits of reflection, personality maturity, as well as selfactualization and types of experiences of loneliness in young people. The goal of the research is to study the specific traits of the manifestation of reflection, personality maturity, and self-actualization in young people with different experience of loneliness. Research objectives: to summarize research on the problem of loneliness, reflection, personality maturity, and self-actualization; to identify the specific traits of reflection, personality maturity and selfactualization in young people with different types of experience of loneliness; to conduct a comparative analysis of the revealed differences, interrelationships of indicators of personality maturity, selfactualization, reflection and personality maturity in young people, depending on the type of employment; to develop and test a training program aimed at increasing the level of reflection in young people with experience of loneliness. The novelty and uniqueness of the scientific research consists in: identifing the peculiarities of the relationship between reflection and loneliness, in particular, the author has found that the systemic reflection type that is characteristic of mature functioning of this type of cognitive activity is characteristic for young people who welcome loneliness and thus see loneliness as an opportunity for selfcommunication. Besides, the author has found that positive loneliness plays a key role in personality selfactualization. It has been proven for the first time that the structure of self-actualization, personality maturity and ability to reflect are interrelated processes, on the one hand, and are also associated with the type of experience of loneliness, on the other. The solved significant scientific problem consists in establishing the characteristics of reflection, personality maturity and self-actualization of young people with different types of experience of loneliness, identifying differences in the manifestation of relationships between various types of reflection and the type of experience of loneliness, self-actualization and personality maturity, as well as in preparing a training program for the development of the ability to reflect that would allow to effectively influence the development of a positive experience of loneliness and contribute to greater personality maturity and selfactualization in an individual. Theoretical significance. The theoretical conclusions of the dissertation complement the knowledge about loneliness as a psychological phenomenon and about the specific traits of its experience at a young age. The research materials supplement scientific ideas about the specific traits of reflection, self-actualization and personal maturity of young people during the period of professional and academic employment. The practical significance of the research lies in the development and testing of a psychological training aiming at developing the ability to reflect through exercises proposed by the author, based on eclectic methods, as well as in the possibility of using the research findings in counseling young people with problems associated with self-knowledge and in self-development. The data obtained may be used to develop training courses in general psychology, ageing psychology, personality psychology, in the basics of psychological counseling. Data validation. The theoretical and experimental results of the research were reported and discussed at the methodological seminars of the Department of Psychology of the Moldova State University; at international scientific conferences "Integrare prin Cercetare şi Inovare" (8-9 November, 2018; 7-8 November, 2019; MSU); "1st European conference on Education and Applied Psychology", Proceedings of the Conference (October 15, 2017).
