Abstract
Aim. To study the nature of the connection of personality traits with the emigration attitudes of Russian youth.
Methodology. The study was conducted from December 2020 to June 2021 on a sample of 802 respondents. The average age of the respondents was 20.3 years. The following methods were used in the study: the "Scale of emigration attitudes", the Big Five Inventory. The mathematical processing was carried out using descriptive statistics and the method of modeling by structural equations.
Results. It was revealed that an increase in the willingness of young Russians to emigrate is caused by a weakening of the expression of the traits of extraversion, benevolence, conscientiousness and an increase in the expression of the trait of openness to experience.
Research implications. The theoretical and practical significance lies in expanding and deepening knowledge about the factors of the intentions of Russian youth to emigrate, using the data obtained in predicting the migration flows of young professionals. Understanding the emigration motives of young Russians allows educational institutions and government organizations to develop strategies to create favorable conditions for talented students in their homeland and keep them from emigrating.
