Особенности ресурсности мышления профессионалов социономического типа

Abstract

For the first time, the thinking potential is interpreted as an intellectual ability of the subject to use any impulse in a constructive way. The relevance of the research lies in the given answer to the question of how this ability contributes to the awareness and involvement of all possible external and internal resources to complete the task in the context of the subject’s socialization and professionalization. The purpose of the research is to study the features of the thinking potential of professionals of the socionomic type. The study hypothesizes that there are different peculiarities in the formation and manifestation of thinking potential of teachers and medical workers. The study was carried out on a sample of pedagogical (n = 110) and medical workers (n = 106) (Yaroslavl). The sample of teachers: the average work experience in the profession is 10.1 years, and the total work experience is 15.3 years. The sample of medical workers: the average work experience in the profession is 13.3 years, and the total work experience is 17.3 years. The authors used such a research method as diagnosing the potential of professional thinking (for the professions of a socionomic type) (by I. V. Serafimovich, E. A. Medvedeva, N. V. Surina) in order to fix the components of thinking potential. To diagnose personal characteristics, the following methodologies were used: Five Facet Mindfulness Questionnaire (by Ruth A. Bear, T.G. Smith, J. Hopkins, J. Krietemeyer, L. Toney) (adaptation by N. M. Yumartova, N. V. Grishina); the methodology for diagnosing subjective well-being of the individual (by R. M. Shamionov, T. V. Beskova); the methodology for diagnosing the level of emotional burnout (by V. V. Boyko). The study proves that all the components of the professional thinking potential and its general level are characterized by an average indicator of development. The results of the study show how teachers and doctors, having certain personal and cognitive characteristics, provide an effective solution to the urgent tasks in their professional activity through awareness, involvement and effective use of external and internal resources. According to the study results, definition of the thinking potential proposed by the authors can be equally applied to the thinking potential of both teachers and doctors.
