The article is devoted to the problem of development of empathic abilities of officers of the Armed Forces. An officer of the modern Armed Forces must be a holistic personality, capable of constant self-development and selfimprovement, with a certain set of moral qualities; his personality should be leadership-oriented, which includes the skills to lead subordinates, take responsibility for them and have a sufficient level of empathic abilities, manifested in empathy, interest in improving the moral and psychological condition of subordinate personnel and each subordinate individually. The concepts of personality, leadership and empathy as a communicative and organizational component of leadership qualities are covered. The level of empathy ability among the officers of a unit of a separate military unit is analyzed and recommendations for its increase are given. Regarding the problem of developing empathic abilities among officers of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, we can say that this topic is unfairly underestimated. This is due to the specifics of military-professional activities, which are clearly regulated by the statutory relationship. "Living by statute" implies the mandatory fulfillment of all its requirements, and does not provide any recommendations for the establishment of interpersonal relations in the military. However, as the experience of recent years has shown, the Armed Forces of Ukraine needed an immediate increase in mobilization resources, which led to conscription of Ukrainian troops, with different motivational factors, different levels of life experience, different age groups. Empathy is one of the important communicative and organizational components of leadership. The chief officer must have an average level of empathic abilities, which allows you to create the most comfortable psychological climate in the subordinate department, without violating military discipline. Analyzing the level of empathy on the example of one of the military units, we saw that not all officers have formed it enough, so it was suggested training exercises to improve it. We also stressed the importance of awareness of the participants about empathy, as well as its development in terms of its various components.

The Individual

The effectiveness of a police officer’s professional performance depends on many social processes and phenomena, on socially-oriented and/or person-oriented communication with colleagues, different categories of citizens, on the level of organisation of this activity in general, on leadership and management processes. These days, such areas of psychology as communication between work colleagues, leadership in the circle of colleagues, and other factors impacting professional efficiency remain insufficiently covered. The authors have already touched on the issue of leadership and communication in our research, however, the authors have not carried out a specific study. The study is mainly aimed at the theoretical-methodological and empirical research into the phenomenon of leadership in the workplace team environment. Main research methods: observation, testing, mathematical-statistical analysis and socio-psychological influence methods. Key results: the scientific concept of ‘leadership’ and specificity of its manifestation in the service team was revealed; the problem regarding the lack of methods and techniques for the study of leadership and management processes in the service team was noted; in order to characterise the service team as an integrated system of interpersonal relations the indices of mutual acceptability/unacceptability, cohesion, coherence, etc. were calculated; the results of communicative activity and expression of leadership personality and management style, etc. were obtained; recommendations on how to organise joint activities and develop leadership skills are given. It is also noted that in order to develop leadership qualities in the workplace, it is advisable to develop the readiness of the individual to make responsible decisions, skills and abilities to quickly and correctly assess the personality, the situation, the socio-psychological climate of the workplace team, etc.

Тhe article considers the problem of psychological climate in a sports team. The paper presents an analysis of different approaches to the problem of interpersonal relations in a sports team, as well as substantiates the need to create a favorable psychological climate in a volleyball team. During the work, the coach is faced with different types of psychological climate and naturally there is a need to change it. It is necessary to establish contacts within the system, make the most of the capabilities of each player. In addition, athletes, respect their mentor and highly value his authority, in the process of training show honesty, the desire to perform any task of the coach, no matter how difficult it may be. It is clear that such an attitude to activity, multiplied by years of training, with the appropriate level of ability can not but lead to the achievement of high sportsmanship. The results of the study of the psychological climate and interpersonal relationships in the student volleyball team are presented. It was determined that low normative behavior is observed in 58.75% of players, 30% have an average level and 12.25% have high normative behavior. According to the results of testing among athletes of the volleyball team aged 18-21 in 60% of subjects - low inadequate self-esteem, which is expressed in dissatisfaction with themselves, insecurity, as well as excessive self- criticism. Adequate self-esteem and a certain maturity were found in 40% of the subjects. Accordingly, low self-esteem, which is present in athletes with low behavioral norms, who try to increase their importance through self-expression due to behavioral characteristics. They evade social requirements, try to stand out in the group, violate discipline. When determining the relationship of the psychological climate in the team, it was found that it is influenced by such factors as the level of self-esteem (r = 0.62, at p <0.05) and closed-sociability (r = 0.58, at p <0, 05). Thus, a favorable psychological climate helps the team to move faster towards a common goal, overcome difficulties, the ability to find compromise solutions in conflict situations and, as a result, higher rates of personal and team satisfaction.

Common Sense Psychology

According to Heider, some of his ideas about common-sense psychology presented in The Psychology of Interpersonal Relations ( Heider, 1958 ) originally came from his academic teacher, Alexius Meinong. However, Heider makes no reference to Meinong in his book. To clarify Meinong’s influence on Heider, we compare Heider’s explication of common-sense psychology with Meinong’s writings, in particular those on ethics. Our results confirm that Heider’s common-sense psychology is informed by Meinong’s psychological analyses in several respects: Heider adopts aspects of Meinong’s theory of emotion, his theory of value, and his theory of responsibility attribution. In addition, Heider more or less continues Meinong’s method of psychological inquiry. Thus, even without Meinong’s name attached, many aspects of Meinong’s psychology found their way into today’s social psychology via Heider. Unknowingly, some of us have been Meinongians all along.
