Hygienic bases of prognostic assessment of professional adaptation and state of health of students mastering medical specialties, based on the use of statistical models

Abstract

Currently, among the priority problems of preventive medicine, one of the most important places, undeniably, belongs to the issue of preserving and strengthening health, as well as increasing the level of professional adaptation of student youth who master certain specialties, including those who acquire a medical profession. The purpose of the scientific work was to justify the hygienic bases of effective prognostic assessment of professional adaptation and health status of students who master basic medical specialties based on statistical models. The results obtained during the use of correlation analysis procedures made it possible to reveal a set of indicators of psychophysiological functions, personality characteristics, health status, academic success, characteristics of living conditions and lifestyle, which were marked by the presence of a clear interdependence and even a deep affinity with the criterion characteristics of the level of success in professional training girls and boys studying medicine. The most indicative in this context and, even more importantly, the most significant from a professionally significant point of view should be considered the patterns of relationships established at the final stage of the student's stay at a medical institution of higher education. At this time, attention was drawn to the strict correlation of academic success in both clinicallyoriented disciplines and general education subjects and criterion indicators of health status, non-specific reactivity, development of psychophysiological functions, personality traits, lifestyle traits, etc. Data from cluster analysis procedures made it possible to establish a sufficiently stable structure of the spatial classification of the studied objects during the study period at a medical institution of higher education. Thus, among the girls, several clusters stable in terms of internal structural characteristics should be noted, namely: integral-adaptive personal-oriented, integral-adaptive environmental-oriented, micro-social-hygienic, anxiety-characteristic, temperamentological, psychophysiological and speed-coordinating clusters, among young men – integral-adaptive personal-oriented, integral-adaptive environmental-oriented, microsocial-hygienic, microsocial-psychophysiological, anxiety-characteristic, temperamentological, spatial-coordination, speed-coordination and motivational-self-evaluation clusters.
