title: Development and organization of the personality as a system of regulation.
abstract: Personality is not only the totality of conscious and unconscious characteristics but the unity of somato-organic and psychic characteristics. The somatic organism is a specific morphological and physiological system of the individual. The psyche is a functional structure developing individually in the course of ontogeny, under the effect of internal processing influenced by the environment. A concept is detailed concerning the structure of the human psyche, the system and nature of the conscious and unconscious functions. The personality is a manifestation of the connections and the formation into a system of the somatic organism and the psyche. This interconnection brings about the socialized humanization of the vital processes in man living in society. A concept concerning the essence of personality is discussed, emphasizing the "actual personality" and describing its structure. Clinical examples are given concerning the interconnection of somatic organism and psyche and of the somato-psychic and psycho-somatic processes. Direction and key of the codes as well as the importance of the meaning of life within the cybernetic system is explained, and conclusions are drawn for the purposes of education.
