Abstract: Abstract Theoretical and methodological problems of social behavior of consumers of medical care are considered in reference to mental characteristics of Russians and the identification of regional specificities of the South of Russia. The need for a multidimensional methodological construct for the study of the consumption of medical care based on the neoclassical model of scientific research and on the principle of constructive realism is justified. A model of social behavior is a cognitive analog of the practices of social behavior as a person’s reaction to social situation in the form of social actions conditioned by the structures of mental program. The features of alternative (conservative and liberal) and hybrid (conservative-liberal and liberal-conservative) models of social behavior of consumers of medical care in the South of Russia are considered.
