Empirical results of student personality resistance in modern social environment

Introduction. The formation of the student's personality occurs in an unstable socio-economic situation in the world and in the country, which negatively affects the mental health of young people. The issue of studying the most important personal formations that make up the psychological structure of students' personality resistance in a modern social environment is relevant
Materials and methods. The article presents a psychodiagnostic toolkit that made it possible to determine the basic level of indicators of interest: Self-relationship questionnaire (CCA) S. R. Pantileev and V. V. Stolin; Meaning-life installations (method of D. A. Leontyev); Scale of resistance to sources of stress (E. V. Raspopin); Methodology for studying the subjectivity of E. N. Volkova, I. S. Seregina (modification and standardization for youth and student age N. I. Dunaeva); Scale of psychological stability (Hardiness Scale, S. Maddi), adapted version of D. A. Leontyev, E. I. Rasskazova; Questionnaire "Methods of controlling behavior" (R. Lazarus, S. Folkman, adaptation of T. L. Kryukova, E. V. Kuftyak); Methodology "Psychological diagnostics of the safety of the educational environment" by I. A. Baeva.
Results. The study was attended by students of the National Research Nizhny Novgorod State University named after N. I. Lobachevsky, 1-2 year students of the Faculty of Social Sciences, Faculty of Economics – 196 people (18-20 years old). The results of the study allow us to draw conclusions: every fourth student demonstrates a high level of unconditional acceptance of himself. Students have expressed life goals, as well as a belief in their own ability to control their lives. Key aspects of subjectivity, such as accepting responsibility for your choice and deep understanding and acceptance of other people, are not sufficiently developed.
Discussion and conclusions. The conclusion is justified that the conducted meaningful analysis of the structural components of the student's personality resistance made it possible to identify limitations and develop modular programs of various orientations in accordance with the author's concept of personality resistance.
