“…Психологические исследования, которые проводились с начала пандемии, затрагивали вопросы совладания населения с ситуацией пандемии, страхом и тревогой заражения. Неопределенность, которую принесла пандемия, повлияла на профессиональную самоидентификацию, поскольку условия труда изменились или перестали приносить удовлетворение [1]. Очевидно, что влияние пандемии заключается не только в непосредственном воздействии, но и в пролонгированном характере.…”

Introduction The impact of the pandemic is prolonged, changing people's attitudes towards the meaning of relationships, life and professional activities. Future psychologists found themselves in a difficult situation during the pandemic: it was assumed that they would be able to show resilience and support their loved ones, to find new meaning in the profession they were acquiring. But in reality, it turned out that the students themselves needed psychological support, many of them showed disappointment in the profession.Purpose setting. The purpose of this study is to assess the parameters of professional identity and resilience before and after the COVID-19 pandemic. The materials of two empirical studies obtained on a sample of students (future psychologists) of different courses at the Pacific State University before and after the COVID-19 pandemic are presented. The 2019 study (N = 78) included respondents aged 17 to 25 (M = 19.8; SD = 0.65), in the 2022 study (N = 78) ‒ aged 17 to 25 (M = 20.3; SD = 0.45).Methodology and methods of the study. The following methods were applied: hardiness survey (adapted by D. A. Leontiev, E. I. Rasskazova), professional readiness method (A. P. Chernyavskaya); questionnaire of professional identity of students – future psychologists (U. S. Rodygina).Results. The analysis of correlations in two different groups allowed us to identify certain specificity of resilience in relation to professional identity before and after the pandemic. So, before the pandemic, autonomy of choice and risk taking were positively related, a passive position in acquiring a profession was negatively related to other parameters of resilience. After the pandemic, a dual nature of relationships was found, which clearly delineated students who remain in the profession and those who passively continue to study, and the indicator of involvement in life is positively associated with an active strategy and positive emotions for the future profession. The main differences among students, confirmed statistically, before and after the pandemic were in the parameters «Negative emotions associated with the dissatisfaction of a person's needs in this profession» and «Risk acceptance».Conclusion. These differences and the nature of correlations indicate a rethinking of their positions in the acquired profession and a change in the possibility of taking risks in a difficult situation. The results can be used in the training of future psychologists, including personal growth trainings and self-help groups.

<p>The article presents the results of an empirical study dealing with the features of the adult internal position as a motivational basis for self-determination in modern high school and college students. The study aims to analyze the adult internal position in adolescent students, which is seen as a confluence of the social need for autonomy and the cognitive need for professional education. The hypothesis was tested that the peculiarity of the studied psychological phenomenon is due to the fact that the external conditions of development (environmental factors and institutional requirements for growing up) outpace the formation of internal conditions that ensure the modern young people’s individual psychological readiness for self-determination. We tested the assumption that the institutional requirements for adulthood outpaced the modern young people’s individual psychological readiness for self-determination. Standardized scale methods were used to diagnose the level of professional identity (A. Azbel), the level of ambition and self-esteem (the Dembo-Rubinshtein scale modified by A. Prikhozhan), the level of subjective control (modified by A. Gretsov), as well as to study the emotional attitude towards learning (modified by A. Andreeva-A. Prikhozhan). The sample of the study is 191 people, high school and colleges students from Moscow and Orsk. Correlative, cluster and factor analysis of the data obtained confirmed the assumptions made about the structure of the adult internal position in the early youth and the features of its formation in post-industrial societies. It is shown that the formation of the professional identity of modern high school and college students is more consistent with the objective requirements of the social situation, rather than the level of personal maturity necessary for making informed decisions.</p>

The article is devoted to the analysis of social health trends reflected in the dynamics of individual causes and classes of causes of population morbidity and mortality, as well as in the dynamics of certain types of offenses. The work reviews the period of market transformations and includes data on Russia, federal districts and subjects of the Russian Federation. The study is based on information from Russian and foreign statistical sources (the Federal State Statistics Service, the database of the World Bank and the World Health Organization). The author looks at social health as an indicator of society’s adaptation to the changing social reality. We emphasize the fact that when analyzing social health it needs to be taken into account that subjective personality traits currently play a greater role than before, which is important when selecting empirical indicators. Despite the steady decline in the dynamics of most social health indicators over the previous years, Russia has still remained one of the world’s leaders when it comes to the spread of a number of social pathologies, including population mortality from homicides and suicides. At the same time the aforementioned problem continues to bear a high degree of latency: according to various estimates, the actual scale on which social illness manifests exceeds by many times whatever is indicated in the official statistical information. The paper concludes that, as the complex negative consequences of the “chaotic 90’s” wane, the problem of social health does not disappear, but instead manifests in different forms. It demands to be studied more closely at the level of public consciousness, social perception and behavior.
