DEVELOPMENT OF PROACTIVE ADAPTABILITY OF A PERSONALITY THROUGH A CRISIS SUPPORT PROGRAM
УДК 159.99
Abstract
Introduction: a person in the course of life is faced with crisis situations. Some people easily adapt to changing conditions, but for many they need psychological help in dealing with the crisis. It is worth noting that most of the existing support programs are aimed at working with reactive adaptation mechanisms. However, programs focused on the development of proactive mechanisms will enable people to help themselves in the long term to cope with possible crisis situations in the future. The purpose of this study is to test a psychological support program for individuals in crisis situations aimed at developing and optimizing the adaptive potential of individuals and their components in a crisis situation. The implementation of the developed crisis support program, based on the principles of modern crisis psychotherapy (short-termism, realism, symptom-focus and personal involvement), will lead to a significant increase in the level of proactive adaptability of the individual during crisis situations compared with traditional reactive approaches. Materials and Methods: 60 respondents who applied for help at the Altai Regional Clinical Psychiatric Hospital named after Erdman Yu.K. participated in the testing of the support program (М=35,7). To evaluate the results, psychometric techniques were used to measure the levels of adaptivity, reactivity and proactivity, as well as readiness for self-regulation; qualitative interview. Results: the results showed that there was a development of adaptive potential, a change in the severity of adaptive emotional and behavioral coping strategies, an increase in life awareness and an improvement in emotional reactions when living through a crisis. Conclusion: it is shown that the program of psychological correction, aimed at the comprehensive development of personal adaptive potential in crisis situations, is a new stage in psychological science.
