The article presents the results of a psychodiagnostic study of the socio-psychological adaptation of foreign students at medical schools in the Southern Federal District. Socio-psychological adaptation is a dynamic aspect of involving an individual's personality in a system of socially significant relationships, socio-psychological and professional-activity communications, in the implementation of the corresponding role functions. It has been established that medical students are exposed to many risk factors that violate the harmonious process of socio-psychological adaptation. Among the leading factors, the following are distinguished: the study of one of the most complex languages – Russian; differences in the cultural, communicative and linguistic characteristics of foreign students and residents of Russia; the risk of early emotional burnout during the acquisition of practical skills and intensive on the duration of classes in junior courses in a pandemic of new coronavirus infection. The study revealed that students in both samples have a normative level of socio-psychological adaptation, despite studying in different regions and in different languages (Volgograd State Medical University students study in English, ASMU students in French and Russian as a foreign language). At the same time, it was established that the most preferred strategies for behaviour in stressful situations in both groups are distance, positive reassessment, flight-avoidance and confrontation. The authors presented a statistical analysis of the data, which indicates that there are no statistically significant differences in the socio-psychological adaptation between the two samples for any of the tests performed. The results of this study can be used by the teaching staff, focused on the adaptation support of foreign students in medical universities, tutors and teachers of biomedical orientation for motivational and correctional activities of the pedagogical process. Also, these results will be useful for individual psychological correction of respondents with high maladaptation rates, low sociability indicators, and those who have problems with self-assessment of their capabilities.

The results of studying the opinions of anesthetists-resuscitators on topical issues of the implementation of their professional activities are presented. A total of 450 doctors were interviewed in St. Petersburg and 450 doctors in other regions of the North-West Federal District. It was found that 68,8% of anesthetists-resuscitators received specialized training in anesthesiology-resuscitation immediately after graduating from a medical university and work by vocation. At the same time, their professional activity is associated with increased workload (about a third of specialists work with workloads of up to80-90 hours a week), including psycho-emotional work (57,4% of respondents experience constant stress, 45,6% have chronic diseases, resulting from professional activities). The main directions of optimizing the conditions of their activity, doctors call both financial (raising wages, equipping with modern medical equipment), and organizational measures (optimizing the balance of work and rest, reducing the load). 61% of doctors working in St. Petersburg would not want to change jobs, in other regions only 27,6% of respondents would not want to change anything, and 15,5% plan to change their medical specialty. Among the positive aspects of their work, doctors unanimously noted the factors of emotional comfort: the ability to help people, a good work team, and a convenient work schedule. Doctors consider tension and fatigue, wage mismatch with the workload, and lack of legal protection as negative sides. Given the high degree of commitment of resuscitation anesthetists to their profession, adaptation to difficult conditions, the main efforts should be directed to measures to attract and retain medical personnel, optimize the required volumes and forms of advanced training, introduce a system of psychological adaptation of specialists to working conditions, development of legal support measures for doctors.

Study Results

The purpose of this study was to test the model of diagnostic assessment of the level of formedness of the competency of pedagogical staff to use teaching technologies when applied in the settings of formal and non-formal education and to see whether the model creates opportunities for designing a strategy for professional lifelong development of teaching staff. A convergent (computer-oriented and traditional) methodology was used in this study including: the methodology for examination of the motivation drivers of professional activity (K. Zamfir); “Square of Values” methodology by O. Murzina; methodology of self-assessment of vocational and pedagogical motivation, Bass’s questionnaire on orientations entitled “Personality orientations”, Henning’s methodology called “Structure of Interests”, Criteria Cognitive Aptitude Test. It has been proved that the majority of teaching staff demonstrated the imitative and reproductive level of formedness of the professional competency consistent with all criteria. It seems that educators strive for self-improvement and self-development in using teaching technology in formal and non-formal education settings. This study results can be well used either to develop the structure and content of the professional development or post-graduation programs for the teaching personnel at the instructional institutions or to assess of the level of formedness of the professional competence of pedagogical staff to use teaching technologies in the settings of formal and non-formal education. The study attempts for the first time ever to assess professionalism-related competency in using teaching technology in formal and non-formal education settings and to specify the value orientations, motives, needs, spectrum of knowledge, skills, and abilities comprising the level of proficiency in this area as it is viewed through the needs of the labour market.

The present article deals with an actual problem of medicine – emotional burnout among the staff. Among all professions, it is medical workers that are the most exposed to the development of this phenomenon. The authors analyzed the level of satisfaction with the chosen specialty among psychiatrists and narcologists of Ivanovo and Yaroslavl regions, assessed their working conditions, peculiarities of interaction with related specialists, the motives for multiple jobholding as well as correlation of these parameters with emotional exhaustion, depersonalization and reduction of professional achievements. The results of the study find a significant connection between negative perception of working conditions and individual prospects in the profession with the phenomenon of emotional burnout. Multiple jobholding is typical more for psychiatrists than for narcologists, more often the reasons for multiple jobholding are financial dissatisfaction, less often – desire for novelty. All doctors are interested in referring the patient to additional consultations with related specialists, especially psychotherapists and psychologists. Significant differences in subjective assessing the working conditions between regions are revealed, Yaroslavl region is positively leading. Regret about choosing a specialty is connected with all parameters of emotional exhaustion and is more often observed in psychiatrists of Ivanovo region.

This article is devoted to the study of the peculiarities of adaptation of foreign students to the learning process in Russian universities. Adaptation of students to the University is considered as a process of their adaptation to the conditions of the University, to new methods and forms of education, to the norms of the student body and to future professional activities. Foreign students are representatives of different cultures and, in this regard, may differ greatly from Russian young people, so the process of their adaptation has its own characteristics. This point is very important for University teachers to understand and take into account. How the process of adaptation of a foreign student will take place depends on the effectiveness of his/her education at the University, mastering the future profession. The success of adaptation is determined by many objective and subjective factors. The language barrier was identified as one of the main difficulties for foreign students: more than half of the students of the Yakovlev state University have great difficulties communicating in Russian. The process of adaptation of students is influenced by the level of development of adaptability. In the course of the research, the diagnostics of foreign students' adaptability was carried out, for this purpose, the methods "self-Assessment of psychological adaptability" and "Assessment of emotional and activity adaptability" were used. The research was conducted at the I.Ya. Yakovlev Chuvash state pedagogical University. After processing and analyzing the results, the author concludes that the adaptability of most students is at a low level of development. At the same time, there are more girls with low socio-psychological adaptation than boys. In addition, a method was conducted aimed at studying the level of students ' anxiety. The analysis of the data showed that there is a link between the level of anxiety and the level of adaptability: the higher the anxiety indicators, the lower the adaptability indicators. In conclusion, it is concluded that more than half of foreign students experience difficulties related to adaptation to higher education.

Emotional Burnout

Львиная доля нашей жизни – это учеба. Учеба в школе, институте, университете… Учеба – это, прежде всего, учителя, каждый из которых наделен своими особенностями. Чьи-то личностные особенности нам помогают адаптироваться, заинтересоваться наукой, понять, кем я хочу быть. Таким учителям мы благодарны всю свою жизнь. Но всегда на долгом пути образования встречаются и те, кто нам не нравится по каким-то причинам. Причинам, которые мы часто и сами осознать не можем. Известный факт, что профессия педагога – одна из наиболее затратных психологически и эмоционально. Хорошему учителю нужно быть зрелым, эмоционально устойчивым, здоровым психически и физически. Если же педагог, помимо своей основной деятельности, занимается также реализацией дополнительных образовательных проектов, уровень энергозатрат возрастает вдвойне. Труд учителя всегда насыщен ситуациями, которые, в итоге, могут привести (и приводят) к выгоранию: эмоциональная загруженность, огромная ответственность, длительное нахождение в состоянии перманентного стресса. В результате перегруженный педагог очень быстро «сгорает» в пламени неврозов, депрессий, психосоматических заболеваний. Таким образом, в школе давно назрела ситуация, где основным клиентом психолога должен быть педагог. Автор настоящей статьи рассматривает попытку реализации психотерапевтической работы с педагогами на базе МАОУ «Гимназии №23 г. Челябинска» в рамках реализации модели проектной школы «Практики будущего» на примере метапредметной области «Урбанистика». В статье представлены теоретические основания и методические указания, касающиеся применения психотерапии на основе метода символдрамы в работе с педагогами. Теоретический материал иллюстрирован примерами из практики автора. В качестве данных для исследования были использованы протоколы сессий. В результате исследования автор приходит к выводу, что целесообразно вводить в штат школ ставку психотерапевта или клинического психолога именно для работы с педагогическим составом. A huge period in person's life is closely associated with studying at school, college, or university. Studying is teachers, each of whom is endowed with their own characteristics. Teacher's personality traits help us to adapt, to become interested in science, to understand who we are to be. We are grateful to teachers all our lives. But there are always those who we do not like for some reasons on the long road of education. The reasons that we often cannot even realize. It is well known that teaching as a profession is one of the most energy-intensive. A good teacher needs to be mature, emotionally resilient, mentally and physically healthy. If a teacher, in addition to their main activity, is also engaged in the implementation of additional educational projects, the energy expenditure becomes even greater. The teacher's work is always full of situations, which, in the end, can (and do) lead to burnout: emotional workload, huge responsibility and permanent stress. As a result, an overworked teacher is likely to burn out in the flame of neuroses, depression, psychosomatic diseases. Thus, the school has a long overdue situation where the main client of a psychologist must be the teacher. After all, professional activity is replete with factors that provoke emotional burnout: high emotional workload, many a number of emotional factors, the daily and hourly need for empathy, sympathy, responsibility for children and their work. As a result, a teacher becomes a hostage to the situation of emotional burnout, a prisoner of the emotional and professional behavior stereotypes. Among the professional illnesses of teachers there are various neuroses, and psychopathic conditions, in addition to a number of psychosomatic disorders. In this regard, an important part of a psychologist's activity at school is psychotherapeutic work with teachers and educators who implement additional educational projects. The author of this article considers an attempt to implement psychotherapeutic work with teachers in the MAEI "Gymnasium № 23 of Chelyabinsk" within the framework implementation of the model project school "Practices of the Future" in the example of the metasubject area "Urban Studies". The article presents theoretical foundations and guidelines for the use of psychotherapy based on the symboldrama method for work with teachers. The theoretical material is illustrated with the examples from the author's practice. Session protocols were used as data for the study. As a result of the study, the author therefore asserts the conclusion that it is advisable to introduce a psychotherapist or a clinical psychologist into the school specifically for working with the teaching staff.
