FORMATION OF PSYCHOLOGICAL STABILITY CADETS OF A MILITARY UNIVERSITY
The level of development of modern aviation science and technology places high demands on the professional training of military specialists, one of the components of which is the formation of psychological stability. Psychological stability should be considered as the ability of a military specialist to manage his mental state, to maintain the optimal functioning of the body and psyche in adverse conditions in peacetime and wartime. The psychological stability of the future navigator is formed in the process of conscious and purposeful analysis of actions and actions in accordance with the norms and requirements of the military charter and professional ethics. One of the directions of the process of forming psychological stability is the development of mental self-regulation. Mental self-regulation for a future officer is one of the most important personal and professionally significant qualities. The survey conducted among cadets, future navigators, allowed us to determine the stressful factors that have a negative impact on the mental state, which allowed us to determine the main methods of forming self-regulation skills that are widely used in the practice of training cadets. These methods include two groups: a set of verbal psychological methods (self-persuasion, auto-suggestion, self-expression, self-control, etc.) and non-verbal psychophysiological methods (breathing and facial exercises, exercises aimed at muscle relaxation). In addition, the development of interpersonal relationships between crew members is of great importance for the formation of psychological stability. For this purpose, it is advisable to conduct various forms of training sessions, trainings. The use of psychological methods and various forms of training in the process of training cadets contributes to increasing their psychological stability, which has a positive effect on the effectiveness of their professional training and further military activities.
