Abstract

The article is dedicated to the study of the concept of “stubbornness” in the framework of cognitive linguistics, psycholinguistics and linguoculturology. The main attention is paid to the analysis of the associative field of the concept of “stubbornness” in the Russian language consciousness. The appeal to the concept under study is due to its relevance and little-studied in the linguistic field. Practical materials are data from a chain associative experiment conducted between native speakers of the Russian language. According to the experiment, the associative field of the stimulus word “stubbornness” is compiled and analyzed. The main cognitive features of the studied concept are revealed. The significance of the study is that the results of the study can be used in teaching Russian as a foreign language, as well as in compilation of a new type of dictionaries – dictionaries of concepts.
