Abstract:
The determination of the subsequent comprehensive assessment of the peculiarities
of the course of adaptation processes, which are characteristic of modern student
youth who acquire a certain profession, are closely related to the establishment of the
regularities of the course of numerous adaptive mechanisms in the plane of
implementation of psychophysiological, mental, and socio-psychological adaptation.
The purpose of the work is to carry out a comprehensive hygienic assessment of the
adaptation capabilities of the organism based on the definition of its social and
psychological component and aggressive personality manifestations of modern students
at various stages of education in a higher education institution. Scientific studies were
conducted using questionnaires by Rogers and Diamond and Bass-Darky. 307 students,
including 150 young women and 157 young men, who studied in the first, third and sixth
years of the medical faculty were under supervision during the observation period. The
analysis of the obtained data involved the application of descriptive statistics procedures
based on the application of the statistical analysis program package "Statistica 6.1"
(license number ВXXR901E245722FA). It was established that the highest level of
expression of integral indicators of social and psychological adaptation of students,
regardless of the time of study in a higher education institution, is characteristic of the
characteristics of adaptation manifestations regarding the desire to dominate and
accept others; at the same time, the lowest level of expression is for the characteristics
of internality and therefore, determines the presence of pronounced signs of
transformations of the adaptive content, which mark the tense course of the processes
of social and psychological adaptation of students to the conditions of stay in a medical
institution of higher education. It was found that among the overwhelming number of
students who were studied, the indicators of aggressive personality manifestations
exceed the values typical for normative age-sex indicators. This situation determines
the need for the development of methods for a comprehensive assessment of the state
of adaptive resources of the body of young men and women studying and scientific
substantiation of health-preserving technologies, based on which measures of
psychohygienic correction should take the leading place.
