Personality and occupational stress in the field of mine rescue and intervention

The special conditions created by emergency situations are likely to lead to psychological and emotional strains. For part of intervention and rescue personnel, these are accompanied by mobilization of internal resources, while in others these may lead to disabling phenomena as well as the occurrence of stress symptoms. Some people have a constitutional or psychological vulnerability to the action of traditional stressors, being more prone to psychic stress. The multifactorial complex of non-specific factors that modulate the individual response necessarily includes personality traits, acquired during the individual’s experience and manifested in the context of its interactions with the social network, as well as in actual situations (stressful events). This paper presents the results of a series of psychological personality assessments of intervention and rescue personnel, in the context of analysing the relationship between personality traits and the risk of occupational stress occurrence.

ALIENATION FROM ITSELF AS A BREAK OF TIES WITH THE WORLD

The Relationship

The study analysis focuses on one of the main existential problems of the individual and social life development, namely the problem of alienation. As a phenomenon that describes the ontological situation of violation or rupture of the individual's ties with the common being, alienation is a condition of non-acquisition or loss of meaning in life. Reproduced genetically in the Judeo-Christian tradition, the alienation phenomenon characterizes the situation of connection loss of the individual with his spiritual potential. That is, we are talking about the non-disclosure of the inner potential of human. Therefore, it is noted that as a result, a person refuses to take responsibility for his life. In this situation, internal resources are directed not to the development of the soul potential, but to the achievement of material goods. The latter are presented by the modern socio-political system as markers of "success". Thus, a person betrays himself. It, therefore, subordinates its life to the power of external forces, alien, inherent in its nature. This leads to a gap between essence and existence, the formation of dissatisfaction feelings, helplessness, inadequacy. The author focuses on the fact that integrity, co-existence, co-involvement, demand for personality are born in the relationship. Therefore, any violation, deformation or simulation of these spiritual connections causes problems of both individual and social development. The modern relations space, in which "distant connections" predominate, only states the actualization of the individual alienation problem, which is transmitted from the individual space to all types of social relations. The solution to the problem, according to the author, lies in the space of existential issues, overcoming tendencies to self-alienation of the individual. It is this perspective of the study of the social and individual problems development and requires the development of a methodology for studying the issue.

Three personal reflections provided by doctoral students of the Michigan School of Professional Psychology (Farmington Hills, Michigan) address identification of individual perspectives on the tragic events surrounding Trayvon Martin’s death. The historical ramifications of a culture-in-context and the way civil rights, racism, and community traumatization play a role in the social construction of criminals are explored. A justice orientation is applied to both the community and the individual via internal reflection about the unique individual and collective roles social justice plays in the outcome of these events. Finally, the personal and professional responses of a practitioner who is also a mother of minority young men brings to light the need to educate against stereotypes, assist a community to heal, and simultaneously manage the direct effects of such events on youth in society. In all three essays, common themes of community and growth are addressed from varying viewpoints. As worlds collided, a historical division has given rise to a present unity geared toward breaking the cycle of violence and trauma. The authors plead that if there is no other service in the name of this tragedy, let it at least contribute to the actualization of a society toward growth and healing.

This volume provides the first comprehensive overview of the extant Greek and Latin letter collections of late antiquity (ca. 300-600 C.E.). Bringing together an international team of historians, classicists, and scholars of religion, it illustrates how letter collections advertised an image of the letter writer and introduces the social and textual histories of each collection. Nearly every chapter focuses on the letter collection of a different late ancient author—from the famous (or even infamous) to the obscure—and investigates its particular issues of content, arrangement, and publication context. On the whole, the volume reveals how late antique letter collections operated as a discrete literary genre with its own conventions, transmission processes, and self-presentational agendas while offering new approaches to interpret both larger letter collections and the individual letters contained within them. Each chapter contributes to a broad argument that scholars should read letter collections as they do representatives of other late antique literary genres, as single texts made up of individual components, with larger thematic and literary characteristics that are as important as those of their component parts.

Професійне становлення особистості супроводжує всі етапи соціально-вікового розвитку особистості. Трудова діяльність є основним видом суспільної активності, який дозволяє працівнику задовольняти основні потреби, особливо у процесі постійних соціальних, освітніх реформ. Важливим завданням психологічного супроводу працівника у процесі виконання професійної діяльності є забезпечення сприятливих умов формування професійно важливих якостей. Соціальна успішність є результатом ефективного розв’язання виробничих завдань, які мають суспільно корисну важливість та пов’язані з потребами інших людей. Якісний прогресивний розвиток працівника можливий лише за умови збереження стійкого позитивного ставлення до професії. Позитивна професійна самоідентифікація пов’язана з ототожненням та персоналізацією працівником особистісних рис працівників, які досягли успіху у професії, мають суспільно визнані результати діяльності. Таким чином, професійна успішність як суб’єктне новоутворення у якості відчуття гордості за власні результати діяльності забезпечує реалізацію традиції наставництва і передачі позитивного професійного досвіду. Професійно успішний працівник усвідомлює необхідність та важливість результатів своєї діяльності для інших, що вимагає, відповідно, від соціального середовища усвідомлення необхідності визнання результатів діяльності фахівців. Знехтуваний суспільством працівник, або той, результати діяльності якого позиціонуються як меншовартісні, дистанціюється від професії та має негативний потенціал розвитку. Professional formation of the person accompanies all phases of social and age of the individual. Gainful employment is the main form of social activity that allows the employee to realize the basic needs. An important task of psychological support worker in the course of professional activity is to provide favorable conditions for the formation of professionally important qualities. Professional success is the result of an effective solution of industrial jobs that are socially useful and important related to the needs of others. High-quality progressive development of an employee is only possible while maintaining a stable positive attitude towards the profession. Positive professional identity associated with the identification and personalization of employee personality traits of employees who have been successful in the profession, who have publicly acknowledged performance. Thus professional success as the subjective feeling of a lump in the pride of their own results of operations ensures the implementation of the tradition of mentoring and of positive transfer of professional experience. Professionally successful employees aware of the need and the importance of the results of its operations for the other, which requires, respectively, from the social environment - awareness of the need to recognize the performance of specialists. Unclaimed society worker, or the results of operations, which are positioned as less important, is moving away from the profession and has a negative potential.

Self-realization of the individual in the conditions of using the policy of “social quality” as a modern tool of public administration in a transitional society is largely related to overcoming the existing limitations of the individual in acting in such a society and economy transitioning to a market character. Given that, in particular, in Ukraine the market is hybrid (and this is especially important), the existing limitations in self-realization of the individual must be overcome, including, and perhaps primarily, through transformations in the processes of socialization, which differ from European practices and institutions that ensure its implementation. Thus, it is a matter of overcoming not only and not so much the natural selfish interests of the individual, but the existing gap in skills, which are an invisible asset to ensure the endogenous nature of economic growth. It is shown that there is an inverse relationship between the formation of socialization and the policy of “social quality”, which is characterized by the dialectic of interaction between the individual and the group and which is a process of increasing the degree of socialization. The latter, due to interdependence, will serve to increase the effectiveness of interaction between the individual and the group, which expands the possibilities of self-realization of the individual in terms of European policy of “social quality” as a tool of public administration, whose successful application causes new challenges and content of the so-called secondary sociology. The logic of Ukraine's current development shows that new approaches are needed to achieve the social development goals set out in the Association Agreement between Ukraine and the European Union and to minimize the potential risks and threats that accompany current reforms in Ukrainian society. They should introduce new forms of public administration to create policy interrelationships of all dimensions, as proposed, in particular, by the social quality approach to socialization, the nature of which has been revealed in the author's previous publications. As a result, the socio-cultural (social) dimension will fundamentally change, the structure of which must include the transformational processes of socialization of a person, thanks to which they will learn the basics of life in the new social reality and intensify their social and economic interaction on the basis of self-realization, thereby contributing to the success of state policy of social quality and achieving stable socio-economic development.
