Психические состояния, сопровождающие студента при первичном и повторном профессиональном самоопределении

Abstract

The article discusses the mental states that arise in students during the initial and repeated professional self-determination (on the example of asthenia and anxiety states). At present, the global automation of the processes used in society is leading to a dynamic change in the areas of human activity. A person is in a state of uncertainty, “changeability” of his professional path, experiences anxiety and the inability to predict, which forms certain mental states that affect the mental health of a person and affect the socio-economic aspects of the country's development. There is a need to consider mental states in the process of professional self-determination and tools for their self-regulation. The respondents of our study were 43 undergraduate students and 50 students of master's and retraining programs. The age of the respondents ranges from 18 to 50 years. To identify mental states and the level of awareness of students, a clinical questionnaire was used to identify and evaluate neurotic states (K. K.Yakhin, D. M.Mendelevich) and a five-factor questionnaire of awareness (FFMQ). The results were processed using the method of univariate analysis of variance. As a result of the study, it was determined that undergraduate students have an increased level of asthenia and anxiety regarding graduate students and professional retraining students. Students of professional retraining show the ability to describe their experience and the ability to reflect. After testing themselves in professional activities, students of professional retraining understand their further professional path of development and do not doubt the correctness of their choice, unlike bachelor's and master's students.
