Abstract
According to many domestic and foreign scientists, the ability of a person to maintain professional efficiency and integrated behavior in extreme conditions is primarily determined by psychophysiological factors. The specialists of extreme profile, due to the consciousness of a threat to life, there is a constant readiness for action, not always aware of them.Aim. The paper presents empirical studies of the psychophysiological status of representatives of various difficult professions, including at the content level of the extreme component (dispatchers, servicemen, military pilots and specialists engaged in the spent nuclear fuel (SNF) recycling).Materials and methods. Psychophysiological status was revealed with the use of electroencephalographic (EEG) study, data of simple (SVMR) and complex visual-motor reaction (CVMR) and color test of M. Lusher in the interpretation of I. Tcyganok.Results. As a result of the study, it was found that the highest efficiency was found in firefighters and soldiers, the highest rates of stress, not going beyond the corridor standards are typical for submariners and specialists in the SNF recycling. In submariners, the professional load was reflected by an increase in the rhythm index A, in military pilots the level of operator performance increased due to the activation of compensatory mechanisms.
Highlights
Professions associated with high energy loads at appropriate levels of mental health on the background of the manifestation of various situation factors A
The subjects were examined by several methods after signing voluntary informed consent: 1. Evaluation of the functional state of the central nervous system (CNS) on the basis of simple visual motor reaction (SVMR) [12, p. 18]
Tsyganok (2007), it can be stated that dispatchers, servicemen, pilots, firefighters and specialists in the recycling of spent nuclear fuel (SNF) are autonomous, active, initiative, independent, inclined to dominate, seeking selfassertion and success
Summary
Professions associated with high energy loads at appropriate levels of mental health on the background of the manifestation of various situation factors (danger, novelty, unexpectedness, uncertainty, high intellectual and psychophysical complexity, etc.) A. I. Lebedev (2001), the threshold separating usual conditions from extremes is such situations when the adaptive barrier is broken, dynamic stereotypes in the central nervous system are «broken», and psychic disadaptation or crisis occurs [8, c. According to his observations, scuba diver, pilots and astronauts have a constant standby status due to life-threatening condition, which, is not always realized by them [9, p. The concept of extremity, considered by I. Chistilin (2008), includes environmental, personal and activity aspects [14, p. 62]
