The experiment included 314 students, future physical culture teachers, among them 110 girls and 204 boys aged 18 to 23. This study investigated the dynamics of the attitude towards the risk of students (by age and sex) during their stay at higher educational institutions according to a specially developed methodology that included the personal profile of G. Eisenck, the methodology "Hierarchy of Needs" modified by I. Akindinova and the questionnaire "Investigation of Preparedness for Risk » by A. Shmelev. Summarizing the study analysis results the following conclusions can be drawn: preference of risk decreases with the age; the tendency to risk is lower in more experienced future teachers than in non-experienced ones; in girls the risk aptitude is realized under more certain conditions than in boys; the risk predisposition is more pronounced in a group than acting alone and depends on group expectations. During the period of studies at higher education institutions each future physical culture teacher developed his own potential for addressing the problems associated with risk prevention, their localization, minimization and elimination
