An empirical research of future rescuers’ professional self-realization

Abstract

This article presents the results of an empirical study of future rescuers’ professional self-realization. It also describes the correlation analysis results. The aim of this research is to empirically investigate the future rescuers’ professional self-realization. To determine the features of the cognitive-behavioral component the following methods were applied for the research: “Prognosis” methods (that is the assessment of nerve-psychological stability (NPS)), the “SACS” methods (S.Hobfoll, adapted by N.Vodopianova, O.Starchenkova), the multifactor personality questionnaire FPI, the “Compass” methods, the “Diagnosis of the readiness for risk” methods (A. Shubert). To determine the motivational-value component we used the “Determination of life goals and personal values” methods by P. Ivanov, Y. Kolobova, the “Study of the personality motivational profile” methods by Sh. Ritchie and P. Martin; and as to the the emotional-volitional component we used the “Diagnosis of the empathic abilities level” methods (by V. Boiko). Psychophysiological measurements were also conducted at the “Psychological Training Ground” complex, and the average score in specialized disciplines was used.
