Abstract

Background. The importance of studying personal meta-resources in modern conditions of an unstable world is highlighted. Meta-resources streamline the system of personal resources and help a person solve life problems using their own strengths. It is noted that developing the resource approach in the psychology of work and service activity enables to increase the success of professional activity through the formation of certain resources. The concept of a meta-resource of life success is described as an important predictor for the professional activity of employees of internal affairs bodies. The development of training for life and professional success of employees of internal affairs bodies is proposed. Its justification as an effective technology for the development of this meta-resource is given. Objective. The aim is to study the dynamics of components in the meta-resource of life success with targeted influence on them in the process of training work. Sample. The study involved 115 people, including 44 cadets, 44 students, 12 adjuncts, and 15 novice teachers at the educational organization of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia, who were divided into four experimental and two control groups. The experimental groups were formed taking into account the specifics of the professionalization process in the experimental groups. Methods. A quasi-experimental research design was implemented. The impact occurred in the process through training technology during the implementation of “Training for the life and professional success of employees of internal affairs bodies.” Before and after the training, diagnostic sessions were taken. Results. The effectiveness of the training has been theoretically and empirically proven. In all experimental groups, positive dynamics of certain components of life success were revealed. Positive changes in the reflexive mechanisms of success occurred in all experimental groups, with the exception of the group of adjuncts. Positive dynamics of practical, moral, and existential emotional experiences was noted. In samples of students and teachers, an increase in the life disposition indicator was recorded, which is one of the important predictors of professional success. Conclusion. The results obtained made it possible to draw a generalized picture of the possibilities for purposeful formation of a meta-resource for the life success of employees at internal affairs bodies through training. The effectiveness of life and professional success training has been theoretically and empirically proven, which makes it advisable to include it in psychological support programmes for internal affairs officers.
