“…В подростковом возрасте с уровнем психологического благополучия тесно связаны как личностные характеристики, так и социальные, в частности факторы социальных конфликтов на разных уровнях взаимодействий, характерных для подросткового кризиса Головей, Галашева, 2022). Во многих исследованиях отмечается особая роль социальной поддержки, снижающей факторы тревоги, депрессии и стресса у подростков (Холмогорова и др., 2014;Haugstvedt, 2022;. Исследователи отмечают гендерную специфику в поиске и принятии социальной поддержки в подростковом возрасте.…”

At present, due to the speed and intensity of modern life and the high stressfulness of events and situations, scientific interest in the study of stress and factors that allow to constructively overcome them has seriously increased. Purpose: to study the contribution of personal and social characteristics to the perception of stress in senior adolescence. Hypothesis: boys and girls manifest the parameters of stress perception differently: overstrain as an emotional component and hardiness to stress as an instrumental component. For girls, the perceived stress is more closely related to their personal characteristics, and for boys it’s associated with social ones. In general, in the period from 15 to 17 years, personal characteristics contribute more to the ability to reduce or increase intensity of stress, and social characteristics contribute to the activation of efforts to counteract stress. A sample of 90 senior adolescents aged 15–17 was divided into two groups: 45 boys and 45 girls. Methods: the scale of perceived stress (ShVS-10, adaptation by Ababkov et al.); the scale of personal anxiety A.M.Prikhozhan; S.Muddy’s hardiness questionnaire (Leont’ev, Rasskazova’s adaptation); K.Riff ’s psychological well-being scales (Troshikhina, adaptation by Zhukovskaya); G. Sommer and T.Fydrich’s perceived social support questionnaire (adaptation by Kholmogorova, Petrova). Correlation and regression analysis was carried out. The study showed gender characteristics and differences in the perception of stress, which are manifested in a subjectively more intense and active experience of stress by girls compared to their peers boys. Data have been obtained on the greater contribution of individual-personal characteristics to the perception of stress in general and to such a component as overstrain in particular. It is also shown that in counteracting stress, along with personal characteristics, the factor of social support also plays a significant role.

Проведен анализ исследования психологического благополучия обучающихся и воспринимаемой ими социальной поддержки как ресурсов совладающего поведения в ситуациях стресса. Выборку составили 107 учащихся старших классов школы в возрасте 16–17 лет (52 юноши и 55 девушек). Методики: Шкала воспринимаемого стресса (ШВС-10), «Юношеская копинг-шкала» (ACS); Шкалы психологического благополучия К. Рифф; Опросник воспринимаемой социальной поддержки Г. Зоммера и Т. Фюдрика. Сделан анализ описательных статистик в группах, разделенных по признаку пола, корреляционный и регрессионный анализ. Показаны общие факторы воспринимаемого стресса, совладающего поведения, психологического благополучия и социальной поддержки, а также гендерные особенности и различия. Юноши чаще демонстрируют автономность, компетентность и более высокий уровень самопринятия. При этом все старшеклассники отмечают наличие социальной поддержки. Девушки более напряженно переживают стрессы, и им приходится прилагать больше усилий для совладания с ними по сравнению с их сверстниками юношами. Девушки чаще прибегают к эмоционально напряженным стратегиям совладания, тогда как юноши чаще используют проблемно-ориентированные и внешние социальные ресурсы. Представлена позитивная роль психологического благополучия и социальной поддержки для возможности продуктивного совладания со стрессами, а также обнаружены мишени психологического воздействия и коррекции при выборе старшеклассниками непродуктивных стратегий копинга. Инструментальная поддержка, проявляющаяся в советах, действенной или материальной помощи, как предоставление готового решения, не требующего усилий самого учащегося, может приводить к укреплению использования непродуктивных способов совладания. The article analyzes the study of high school students’ psychological well-being and their perceived social support as resources of coping behavior in situations of stress. The sample consisted of 107 high school students 16-17 years old (52 boys and 55 girls). Methods: Scale of Perceived Stress-10, Adolescent Coping Scale (ACS), Ryffs Scales of Psychological Well-being, Questionnaire of social support of G. Sommer and T. Fydrich. Descriptive statistics in groups divided by gender, correlation and regression analysis were analyzed. Results: Common factors of perceived stress, coping behavior, psychological well-being and social support, as well as gender characteristics and differences are demonstrated. Young males were more likely to demonstrate autonomy, competence and higher levels of self-acceptance. At the same time, all adolescents note the availability of social support. Girls are more stressed compared to their male peers, and they have to make more efforts to cope with it. Girls are more likely to use emotionally stressful coping strategies, whereas males are more likely to use problem-oriented and external social resources. The positive role of psychological well-being and social support for the possibility of efficient coping with stresses, as well as the targets of psychological influence and correction have been found. Instrumental support, manifested in an advice, effective or material assistance, as the provision of a ready-made solutions that do not require the teenager’s own efforts, can lead to the strengthening of the use of unproductive coping strategies.
