The main emphasis is laid on the use of semantic-meaning analysis (SSA) as an experimental procedure aimed at determination of axiological meanings.</p><p>As a result, the existing axi - acme vector structure of this model was confirmed. An axi-vector is formed on pre-reflexive, reflective and spiritual levels. An acme-vector is formed on the steps of acme-orientation, achievement of acme and new formations. Depending on the scale and prolongation of a life crisis, the following typology of empirical models of AOMP development are proposed. 1) a global-individual type characterizes AOMP development throughout an individual’s life as a new holistic formation that becomes a cultural mode of existence. Outstanding and famous people who have made a significant contribution to world and national culture can be characterized with this type. 2) a local-individual type&nbsp; characterizes AOMP development during a certain (crisis) local period of a person’s life as a new holistic formation that, under certain conditions, can become a spiritual mode of existence in a certain area of ​​culture. This is a characteristic of famous people within a local social situation (for example, «Maidan» or «Donbas war»). 3) a situational type characterizes the situational development of AOMP during experimental (educational) crisis situations, at training. 4) a social type characterizes development of AOMP as a member of a certain social group (community), which is formed under the influence of a crisis situation.</p><p>The article also identifies the following: each model of AOMP development has a pronounced individuality (uniqueness); the axi-acme vector structure of the models depend on the latent period (delay) of its understanding, the longer this period is, the more clearly this structure is manifested and a new formation can be described as a spiritual product.&nbsp;</p><p>The article discuses the prospects for further studies on the conceptual model of AOMP development in critical situations through the use of more advanced techniques of the narrative method and computer programs for textual semantic analysis.</p> ER -
