number (22.6%) is distributed between the idealist (medium level) and the egocentric
(low level) orientation of the individual.
The obtained results confirm the necessary level of motivation for mastering a
professionally communicative culture.
The study of the formation level of a professional communicative culture
according to the cognitive criterion indicators was carried out according to the
developed questionnaire, which tasks were to determine the level of respondents’
awareness in matters of the essence and importance of a professional and
communicative culture, awareness of the success conditions of communication,
knowledge of the language skills of the professional vocabulary. The results are

According to the received data, the majority of respondents (60.1%) identify
professional communication culture with the culture of speech in professional activity
or professional communication, the value of which is seen in the ability to
communicate on the basis of established rules. Such characteristics correspond to the
medium level of the first indicator’s formation. One third of the respondents (34.7%)
are classified as low, because this part of respondents does not understand the essence
and significance of a professional communicative culture, or identifies it with a
professional culture of a specialist that does not cover all the components of this
concept. And only a small amount (5.2%) is consciously aware of the professionally-
communicative culture as a personality's quality, which depends on the general and
communicative culture and ensures the efficiency of professional communication.
Such an understanding is defined as a sufficient level of formation of this indicator.
We assume that such data are related to the fact that the concept of "professional
communication culture" remained beyond the attention of Ukrainian researchers in the
field of pre-school education, which in some way made it impossible for the
respondents to become acquainted with its content and meaning.
