Abstract

The experience of the participation of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in the conduct of hostilities against the aggressor of the Russian Federation showed that the result of the execution of combat missions by units depends, first of all, on the psychological readiness of personnel, which is ensured by professional selection, professional training of specialists for effective and safe activities, and direct professional activities. The purpose of the study is to investigate the influence of indicators of the level of development of qualities that characterize the degree of anxiety, worry, emotional stress due to the action of stress factors and factors on the psychological readiness of military personnel to perform the tasks of military professional activity in various conditions. Research material and methods. In order to identify the indicators and the level of development of qualities that characterize the degree of anxiety, worry, emotional tension due to the action of stress factors and that affect the psychological readiness of military personnel to perform assigned tasks, we organized and conducted testing based on the Spielberger Khanin questionnaire in accordance with the personal assessment scale anxiety with the servicemen of the formed groups at the point of permanent deployment and before the exercises. 78 military personnel participated in the study (n=39, I-II course of study; n=39, III-IV course of study). The age of the respondents is 17-24 years old. Results. According to the results of the survey, it was established that the majority of junior soldiers have a high level of personal anxiety in their everyday life (78.7 %). Among these servicemen, there is not a single one who has a low level of anxiety. The average indicator of personal anxiety corresponds to the indicator of a high level (48.92±1.15 um. unit). The analysis of personal anxiety of senior servicemen is 42.87±1.27 um. units, which fluctuates within the average level of anxiety. Conclusions. The conducted analysis showed that during the execution of a combat mission, there is a significant increase in the level of anxiety of the personnel. The average index of reactive anxiety of junior year cadets is significantly worse than the index of personal anxiety (p<0.001; t=4.78). The same trend between reactive and personal anxiety indicators after the survey was also found in senior courses. This fact confirms that the level of psychological readiness and preparedness of personnel of infantry servicemen is at an insufficient level, which, in turn, leads to a decrease in the level of combat readiness of units and indicates the need to revise the content, forms, methods to ensure the readiness of servicemen to perform the tasks of professional activity.
