Abstract

The period since 1991 of the twentieth century in the history of Russia, in particular Tuva, became a turning point in the people minds. Those people who proclaimed the perestroika did not realize as they did not know that the perestroika is a human factor. People had a nervous tension, most families had to change many of their behavior stereotypes and actions due to the changes in the environment. This meant stronger control and regulatory function of the consciousness, the voltage to the psyche of a Tuvan and, as a consequence, the refusal or failure on the subconscious level: higher number of cases of nervous and mental diseases, crime, suicide, etc. These processes resulted in separation of the youth from the older generation and originating the negative effects as «go on to the Internet», and the archaic consciousness of the population, care to traditional, and partly forgotten, beliefs, economic and social practices. The first stage of the experiment was marked as «psychologically supporting real world». The experiment took place from 1991 to 2000. The second stage of the experiment was called «psychologization of the future in the real world». This experiment assumed participation of Tuva psychologists in the research on experimental psychology, exactly in the regional competition «Russian power will grow in Siberia and the Arctic Ocean»; activities of the public institution Scientific Centre of Ethnic Psychology and Social Practices for the Congresses «Steppe civilization»and dissemination of psychological knowledge.
