Abstract: The article conducts a comprehensive study of the phenomenon of verbal destruction of youth in the conditions of the Russian-Ukrainian war. The aim was to identify and describe projective models for analysing the verbal destruction of Ukrainians aged 18-22. Methods: projective models as tools for identifying hidden emotions, motives and personal characteristics through the analysis of speech reactions. Five projective models are distinguished: model 1 of explication of verbal contradictions; model 2 of fixation of symbolic images in speech; model 3 of analysis of the frequency of use of emotionally colored lexical units; model 4 of verbal comments on changes in appearance and behavior; model 5 of verbal signals of internal conflict. Each allows us to identify certain aspects of destruction, but reveals only some of its sides. J. Smuts's holistic concept provided a holistic approach to analysis that took into account individual and socio-cultural factors. The methodology included observation, psycholinguistic experiments, measurement, content and discourse analysis, and questionnaires administered to 45 people who performed test tasks (WHO-5, GAD-7, PSS-10, and temperament determination) and completed incomplete sentences, which enabled the collection of empirical material. The results showed that verbal destruction manifests itself both in the form of negative emotional reactions and in the use of destructive strategies aimed at expressing powerlessness, guilt, ambivalence, and rationalisation of traumatic experience. The author emphasises that projective models allow not only to identify patterns of destruction, but also to trace the connection between speech manifestations and psychological processes caused by the war. The conclusions emphasise the need to develop projective models for analysing destruction in conditions of social upheaval and integrating psycholinguistic approaches in helping young people.
