To investigate the psychological determinants of professional success of rescuers.Methodology. The study involved 55 male rescuers aged 20 to 60 years, with different levels of education (from secondary professional to higher). Self assessment of the success of rescuers was determined by a 7 point scale via the question: “Do you consider yourself successful?” (7 – definitely Yes; 6 – Yes; 5 – rather Yes; 4 – hard to say, 50% to 50%; 3 – rather No; 2 – No; 1 – definitely No). Expert assessments of professional success were also performed. Psychological determinants of success were studied using psychodiagnostic techniques: “Socio psychological adaptation” by K. Rogers and R. Diamond, “Professional burnout” by K. Maslach, a questionnaire to identify risk appetite by G. Schubert, the test of resilience by S. Muddy, the scale of psychological well being by K. Ryff.Results and Discussion. With the help of cluster analysis of self assessments, the sample of rescuers is divided into groups with high, medium and low professional success. According to the correlation analysis, external and internal evaluations of success significantly correlated only in the group of rescuers with low self assessment of success. At the same time, expert assessments showed a negative trend, decreasing from a group with high to a group with professional success. Indicators of social and psychological adaptation, risk appetite, psychological well being and resilience also show negative trends.

The article considers the features of socialization and individual expectations of the individual as components of its spheres of life. It is shown that the peculiarities of the subject's self-attitude determine the attitudes to life. Transforming, creative activity is one pole. The opposite pole - passivity, expectations, dependence. The result of psychological "tightness" is a feeling of failure. To solve the corrective tasks of forming an active life position, it is important that this transformative, corrective process begins with the analysis and work with self-assessment judgments. Individuals who have, in general, a fairly positive experience of social adaptation and self-realization will tend to form positive, flexible, realistic and concrete expectations. At the same time, individuals who have experienced numerous disappointments and conflicts in the past will be more likely to have negative, rigid, unrealistic and diffuse expectations in their respective fields of activity. Accordingly, the selected indicators are expressed in the features of the expectations of the individual in such areas as significant interpersonal relationships, ideas about their own potential and prediction of the future. The role of individual expectations (as components of cognitive development), as well as their relationship with the process of self-determination of the individual, which provides an opportunity to develop new, more effective programs of socio-psychological adaptation of the younger generation. Key words: specialty, socialization, examination, life.

Background: The Recovery Approach is about supporting people to live the best life they possibly can. This paper reports on a 2008-11 study of a recovery-focussed, one-to-one coaching programme called Whole Life (WL) in a group of people with stabilised schizophrenia. WL comprises 15 modules, each addressing an aspect of life that may pose challenges for someone with mental illness. It involves regular meetings with a coach, additional homework activities and lasts approximately one-year. This level of commitment requires participants to be motivated and enthusiastic. Methods: This was a non-randomised feasibility study, designed to assess acceptability and potential benefits of WL. The WL group was compared to another group of people with the same diagnosis, who received their usual treatment. This was not a strict control group. The primary outcome measure was the Social Adaptation Self-Assessment Scale. Results: Of those recruited to the WL group, 33/44 (75%) completed the full programme. WL participants showed an 11-point increase in mean SASS between baseline and Week 60. Subjective ratings showed benefits of WL at 3 and 6 months after the intervention had ceased, with most saying they felt better and none saying that they felt worse. The comparison group was more ill than the WL group at baseline and showed some improvement over the course of the study, albeit at a lower level than the WL group. However, controlling for baseline group differences meant that none of the outcome measures could reliably distinguish between WL and comparison groups. Conclusions: The study showed that WL is an acceptable and helpful intervention for motivated and enthusiastic individuals. It may have wider applicability for people with a less serious and chronic mental illness, although we do not know how it compares to other interventions. We discuss some methodological limitations of the study.

This paper is the continuation of the article focused on the role of health as the most important source for social adaption of workers. This analysis has been based on the data from Russian recurring survey of population wellbeing and health conducted from 1994 to 2018 and the research conducted at the production plants in 5 cities of Russia from 2003 to 2020. In the second part of article there are results of review of real workers behavior on leisure time. As signs of successful social adaptation there were used the most important indicators for social health – satisfaction of work at the production plant, of financial welfare and of life in general. If to consider self-ratings for social wellbeing, the social adaptation is relatively more successful for those who estimate health condition as good. The most workers with higher health self-ratings have higher satisfaction not only at work but also in whole life. At production plants the majority of workers, which consider their health as good, are satisfied with their life in general and refer themselves to people with average level of income. Completed analysis of 5-years trend in dynamic of social health and opinions of workers from one of the largest production plant in Omsk demonstrated following things. In both groups that are at rather well level in terms of self-assessment for health (1) “not bad”, 2) “good and perfect”) we noticed some improvements in self-assessment results for satisfaction in work. However, satisfaction in financial welfare and in life in general improved only for those workers that treated condition of their health at the best level (only “good and perfect”). The level of happiness which has been revealed during the research in 2019–2020 in Omsk depends on self-assessment of health condition and workers with condition of health “good and perfect” demonstrated much more higher happiness indicators.

The increase in the prevalence and age of seborrhea, its significant impact on the psycho-emotional sphere, social status and social adaptation of patients determines the relevance of further study of the causes of dermatosis in the key of constitutional psychodermatology, namely – the study of relationships between oily skin and emotional impact of oily skin with anthropometric indicators. The aim of the study was to analyze the correlations between Oily Skin Self Assessment Scale (OSSAS) and Oily Skin Impact Scale (OSIS) in men and women with seborrheic dermatitis with body structure and size indicators. A survey of 40 men and 40 young women with generalized fatty seborrheic dermatitis done. The OSSAS and OSIS scoring system was used to assess the severity of oily skin and the emotional impact of oily skin in seborrheic dermatitis. Anthropometric survey was carried out according to the scheme of Bunak V. V. (1941). The mathematical scheme of Carter J. and Heath B. (1990) was used to evaluate the somatotype. Matiegka J. (1921) formulas were used to calculate body weight components. In addition, the muscle component of body weight was assessed by the American Nutrition Institute. Correlation analysis was performed in the license package "Statistica 6.0" using the non-parametric Spearman's method. As a result of the conducted researches multiple reliable and moderate unreliable correlations of OSSAS or OSIS with anthropo-somatotypological indicators of men and women of patients with generalized fatty form of seborrheic dermatitis of mild and severe course were established. The practical lack of similar correlations between OSIS and anthropo-somatotypological parameters in men and women with severe seborrheic dermatitis is noteworthy. Quantitative analysis of reliable and moderate unreliable correlations of OSSAS or OSIS with anthropo-somatotypological parameters in men and women with seborrheic dermatitis of mild and severe course showed that the vast majority of such correlations are inverse, and unreliable average correlations are often observed (except for OSSAS correlations with anthropo-somatotypological parameters in women with mild disease). It was also found that regardless of sex, most of the reliable or moderately unreliable correlations between OSSAS or OSIS and anthropo-somatotypological indicators are observed in the mild course of the disease. The obtained results of the correlation analysis expand the current understanding of the risk criteria and unfavorable prognosis of seborrheic dermatitis.
