The article theoretically justifies, defines and experimentally verifies pedagogical conditions for developing a values-based attitude towards people in adolescents from rehabilitation centres, taking into account pedagogical, psychological and neurophysiological factors. According to the above-mentioned factors, such pedagogical conditions can be developed in the context of the following aspects: involving adolescents from rehabilitation centres in humane activity in terms of developing a values-based attitude towards people; making the “teacher-pupil” and “pupil-pupil” relationships more humanistic; increasing the readiness of rehabilitation centres teachers to develop a values-based attitude towards people in adolescents. Research methods are as follows: surveys, conversations, interviews; writing a mini-essay on the topic “Another Person in My Life”; the questionnaire on values-based orientations; the verbal associations method; discussions, tests, self-tests (assessing one’s behaviour in a conflict situation); the “eye to eye” adapted methodology; the story-role game “One Family”; pedagogical observations; an analysis of life and specially modelled situations. The international relevance of the article lies in the following: for the first time, pedagogical conditions for developing a values-based attitude towards other people in adolescents from rehabilitation institutions in Ukraine have been justified (elaborating and introducing the content, forms and methods; involving adolescents in humane activity; humanizing the relations in the teacher-pupil and pupil-pupil systems; enhancing the level of teachers’ readiness to develop a values-based attitude towards people in adolescents); relevant criteria with corresponding indicators have been determined. This can serve as an impetus to further research on the problem in question on the example of developing countries.
