The paper analyses the value-intentional mechanisms and strategies of psychological adaptation to the conditions of the professional environment of a military higher education institution. The results allowed the authors to identify two strategies, including non-specific (universal) and specific (unique) mechanisms. Nonspecific mechanisms are inherent in both strategies, arise in all respondents and have manifestations by neutralisation of fears, actualisation of social success and value-intentional destabilisation. Specific mechanisms are different in individuals with low and high efficiency of adaptation: the first there is a weakening of group-centric intentions and enhanced hedonistic-egocentric distancing; the second noted group-centric cohesion and activation of cognitive activity.
