Consciousness and error-free performance: The research of ratio of the formation of regulatory processes with the professional accuracy of rail crews
Purpose. The article is devoted to the study of the ratio between the development of regulatory processes (allowing for the regulation of activity at a conscious level) and error-free activity as one of the manifestations of reliability and safety of workers of locomotive crews of different age groups. The purpose of the research is to get ideas about the relationship between the level of reflexivity and self-regulation, the structure of self-regulation with the error-free professional activity of locomotive crews of different age groups. Design . The study sample consisted of 342 locomotive crew drivers of different age categories-men aged 23 to 56 years. Total work experience from one year to 19 years. Methods aimed at studying the components of self-regulation, the level of reflexivity, analyzed data on errors in train activity. Findings . The results of a cross-group comparison of different-level features of self-regulation, reflection and error-free activity of locomotive crews are described. It is established that the properties of self-regulation, the level of reflection, and their manifestations in connection with the age characteristics of specialists (with a large and small number of violations of activity) have a pronounced specificity. Value of results. The obtained results indicate a significant influence of individual components of self-regulation, and their probably joint, mutually reinforcing, impact on the activity error variable.
