The results of the study of responsibility as a personal property in the context of parent-child relationships are presented; in particular, the level of severity of the responsibility variables determined using the “Test of liability judgments” by A.I.

The primary data underwent mathematical processing, which made it possible to determine the normality of the distribution of the sample, and subsequently establish statistically significant differences between harmonic and inharmonic responsibility variables. By mathematical processing of the data, the severity levels of the variables of the target, motivational, cognitive, productive, dynamic, emotional, regulatory and evaluative-reflexive components of responsibility are determined and the percentage of persons from the surveyed sample who have high, above average, average, below average and low levels is revealed parameters.
