Scherbinina O.A., Shayarova E.R. STRESS RESISTANCE STUDY, ANXIETY AND COPYING STRATEGIES IN LAWYERS OF VARIOUS SPECIALIZATIONSThe practical significance of studies of the relationship between stress resistance, anxiety and copying strategies is determined by the fact that the phenomena under consideration are integral components and manifestations of the human psyche. Intertwining with external conditions, they accompany a person all his life and, among other things directly or indirectly affect the success of his professional activity, and at what cost this success is achieved.
Whether the result obtained by the specialist justifies the efforts spent by him; whether his chosen way of coping is effective; whether the specialist understands the multiplicity of both the influences on the result and the variability of the result; whether he understands his role in achieving the result and the extent of his responsibility; whether he is aware of the existence and importance of an optimal background for the deployment of his activities; whether he sees signals indicating a change in the optimal background of his activity and whether he makes efforts aimed at his restoration. The answer to these and other questions helps to get research conducted in the declared topic. The results of a comparative empirical study of two groups of practicing lawyers are presented: specializing in civil and criminal cases.
The results suggest that there are no significant differences in such parameters as stress resistance and situational and personal anxiety in the study samples; significant differences in the intensity of such copings as social support and positive reassessment of results were identified; revealed multidirectional correlations of copying taking responsibility with indicators of situational and personal anxiety in the former, with indicators of situational anxiety in the latter. The data obtained justify the need for the psychological component of the professionalization of lawyers and help to determine the targets of psychological impact on them.Key words: situational anxiety, personal anxiety, stress resistance, copying strategies, lawyers of civil specialization, lawyers of criminal specialization.
