metadata.value: In the context of the rapid development of the information environment, a person’s life path,
  identity, and the living space of an individual are not only presented in real life, but also in
  the virtual world, as well as in augmented reality. The mixing of virtual and real spaces cannot
  but affect the daily life of young people. This article attempts to describe and structure the elements
  of life models as fragments of a life scenario, broadcast through communities in social
  networks. The social network VKontakte has become a meaningful field for analysis as it is the
  most popular and frequently used online platform in the information space for the purpose of
  transmitting interesting and relevant information among Russian peers. The starting point of
  the study was the assumption that the content of social network posts describing the spheres
  of life can serve as a basis for building elements of life models broadcast on the Internet. The
  research consisted of several stages: preparatory (questioning young people about their preferred
  Internet content) and the main one (semantic and content analysis of the content of social
  networks). The sample of the preparatory stage was 110 respondents, the average age was 22 years (SD = 2.8). The main sample consisted of over 200,000 posts from the top 20 social
  media communities (with an average of 4 million subscribers, with entertainment and nonthemed
  content) over the past 2 years. With the help of special program codes and computer
  programs, the posts devoted to the most significant spheres of human activity were analyzed.
  It was found that the most popular marker words denoting areas of life in posts are work, relationships,
  and family. The data of automated semantic and content analysis showed that most
  often, through posts in communities, a model of an active and purposeful person is declared.
  This is an individual who is ready for action, flexible, mobile with respect to work and selfdevelopment,
  but conservative in regard to building family relationships. The results obtained
  confirm the assumption that the characteristics of the components of life models are presented
  most vividly in the posts of Internet communities, are actively broadcast, and have their own
  characteristics. The results of the research data can contribute to the study of the main mechanisms
  of transmission between contemporaries of characteristics of behavior in real life, values
  and information through Internet content, as well as the work of practicing psychologists
  when referring to the profile on social networks or preferred client communities.
