It was found that the frequency of stress-induced somatic diseases in cadets during 45 training years increased from 0 in the I cours to 10% in the VVI courses. The first place in frequency is occupied by diseases of the digestive system (K00K93 according to the International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problem 10th revision), during the training their level increased from 0 to 7.3%. Diseases of the circulatory system (I00I99) increased to 2.7%. Based on the psychophysiological, psychological and psychosocial indicators of the surveyed cadets, a discriminant analysis was performed and a linear classification function model for predicting the propensity to stress-induced somatic diseases was obtained. The model is statistically significant, the percentage of correct classifications is 95.8%, that indicates a good separation ability of this model. The stability of the model indicators during the entire training period is shown, so that makes it possible to use it as a prognostic model and apply to identify propensity of the junior cadet to developing stress-induced somatic diseases. Timely identification of cadets who are prone to developing stress-induced somatic diseases and personalized approach to psychological correction will contribute to the prevention of somatic health disorders, the increasing of efficiency and reliability of activity and the professional longevity of future military specialists. The indicators included in the model shows that the propensity to stress-induced somatic diseases is determined by both innate features (the speed of nervous processes and the ratio of inhibition and stimulation in the central nervous system, typological properties of the personality), and acquired skills of social behavior (coping models and psychosocial characteristics of the personality), as well as stress-induced neurotic manifestations which accumulated in the process of personal development. Psychological correction should be aimed at awareness and self-disclosure of their personal characteristics while developing the desired behavioral and social interaction skills, as well as training in mental self-regulation skills.

The effectiveness of penitentiary activities, assuming the authoritarianism of the management system, is largely determined by the individual and personal characteristics of unit heads of the penal system, who need to show their managerial abilities as fully as possible, but not every leader has a sufficient amount of such abilities. If he/she does, he/she cannot always demonstrate them to the fullest extent. In this case, there can be serious miscalculations, leading to certain socio-psychological and criminological consequences. Among them, the instability of the socio-psychological climate in a team, provoking a high employee turnover, which does not allow forming the key personnel of a unit, as well as a high risk that subordinate employees, projecting the style, manner of communication and affects of the management, begin to show socially disapproving and even self-destructive forms of behavior, such as various forms of aggression towards oneself and others, neglect of safety requirements at work and in everyday life, unlawful actions against convicts, etc. One of the most important factors in the prevention of these phenomena is the system of work with a personnel reserve for managerial positions. The arsenal of diagnostic tools for the study of 65 employees working in the penal system, who are middle managers in the personnel reserve, included a set of methods: a) analysis of documents; b) expert assessment of the employee’s personality; c) psychological testing, which allows obtaining a generalized psychological profile of a personality according to the estimates of five “traits of an adequate personality”, motivators of socio-psychological activity, the style of behavior self-regulation, levels of legal consciousness and faith in people, as well as self-assessment of professional development opportunities and career prospects. The generalized characteristics of the respondents show that 88% of them meet the requirements for penitentiary activities. The respondents have an average level of emotional intelligence development with a tendency to lower; their style of behavior self-regulation is accentuated due to their relatively poorly developed independence; 95% of respondents have a high and medium level of legal consciousness development; 70% of them are distinguished by their distrust of people; the leading motivator of their socio-psychological activity is success achievement. All surveyed employees see opportunities for their professional development, although about 30% of them have concerns about promotion opportunities in this system. Based on the results obtained, the resources of success and the four most important areas of work with the personnel reserve were identified.

Relevance of the problem:The study of junior students' hubristic motives is a new area of scientific research, so the study of the features of younger students' self-awareness and personality traits, depending on their dominant hubristic motivation, is relevant. Aim: determination of self-awareness and personality traits, depending on pupil’s dominant hubristic motivation Methodology of the research: The projective methodology "Fairy tale Kingdom", projective "Tree" Technique (John and Dian Lampen), the Fairy Tale Test (by K. Colacclaw), methodology "Style of Self-Regulation of Children's Behavior - SSRCB M2" V.I. Morosanova. The sample included 204 students (3-d and 4-th forms) of Gymnasium № 169 in Kharkiv. Results of the research. The motivation of superiority over others in younger students involves perceiving their current status as a leader in the classroom. The real and desirable student`s status corresponds to his/her hubristic degree, as well as to the dominant emotional states (aggression or anxiety), motives (affiliate needs that determine the motives of cooperation or needs for superiority, which determine the motives of competition) or personal characteristics. Typological profiles of hubristic motivation determine the awareness of one's own status in the class and the desire to change it, determine the manifestation of personal traits, needs, motives and dominant emotional states. Hubristic motivation in younger school age affects the ability to self-regulate behavior.

The results of the study on stylistic peculiarities of personality behavior self-regulation in late adolescence are stated. The data of analysis of psychological concepts of conscious activity and behavior self-regulation are given (after C. Sherrington, I. M. Sechenov, L. S. Vygotsky, O. A. Konopkin, V. I. Morosanova). The work concentrates on understanding of stylistic peculiarities of self-regulation as being typical for a person and most essential individual peculiarities of self-organization and controlling external and internal goal-oriented activity which consistently shows itself in different types of one. Empiric research is made on the sample of senior school children of general educational schools of Saratov (n = 180, age 15–16). Complex of methods was applied: sixteen personality factor questionnaire by Cattel, Bass - Darky questionnaire, Zung Depression Scale (adapted by T. I. Balashova), “Anxiety state” test (C. D. Spielberg, L. Yu. Khanin), “Style of behavior selfregulation” questionnaire by V. I. Morosanova; method of correlative analysis allowed pointing out the structure of self-regulation stylistic peculiarities depending on personal characteristics of adolescent. The peculiarities of interrelations between self-regulation components and a variety of personal characteristics are represented. Thus, for instance, it is typical for the adolescents with high rate of distrust to other people to carefully premeditate his/her ways of actions towards objectives, circumstantiate and expand programs under development with account of significance of the external and internal conditions of his/her activity. The applied aspect of the problem under study can be actualized by solving tasks of psychological follow-up for school children’s personal development.

Las TIC median las interacciones y la comunicación de los estudiantes a diario. Se conciben como mediado-ras de la reflexión y la autorregulación de la actividad del estudiante, resultante de la interacción consciente de la percepción que tiene el estudiante sobre si con la que negocia con el resto de los estudiantes, los ase-sores y la sociedad en general. En este contexto el aprovechamiento de las TIC debe promover una influen-cia formativa en los espacios formales y no formales. Las condicionantes de complementariedad de espa-cios y de unidad en la diversidad de recursos tecnológicos y didácticos deben guiar la actividad que tenga al estudiante como centro de la misma.Ya no se trata de integrar las TIC en el proceso de formación, haciéndolo formal y estandarizado. El reto está en que sean las características personales de los estudiantes, sus estilos de aprendizaje, sus conoci-mientos y experiencias previas, y sus esquemas afectivos los que marquen el aprovechamiento de las TIC en la evaluación del aprendizaje autónomo de inglés.En el presente trabajo se estructura el aprovechamiento de las TIC mediante un EPA base para la evalua-ción del aprendizaje autónomo de inglés. El EPA base constituye un andamiaje de personas, procedimien-tos, espacios de interacción, y de recursos tecnológicos y didácticos. Los componentes que lo conforman se encuentran débilmente acoplados por la tecnología y altamente cohesionados por la significatividad de las conexiones que el estudiante establece entre ellos. Palabras Clave: Aprendizaje, Autonomía, Entorno, Evaluación, Personal. ABSTRACT There is no doubt about the key role of ICT in the interaction and communication processes among students. ICT are thought as a mean for the reflection and self-regulation of students´ activity, which is in a permanent conscientious comparison between the perception a student has about him/herself and the one he/she nego-tiates with the rest of students, advisors and society in general terms. In this context, ICT should promote a positive influence on student formation in formal and non-formal spaces. The conditionals related to spaces combined support and union in the diversity of technological and didactical resources should guide every activity having students at the center of its conception.It is no longer about integrating ICT to the formation process making it formal and standardized. The chal-lenge on autonomous language learning evaluation with ICT has to do with making the differences through personal characteristics of students, their learning styles, previous experiences and affective schemas.In this paper the use of ICT is structured by means of a PLE frame for the evaluation of English autonomous language learning. It is a scaffolding of people, procedures, interaction spaces, and technological and didac-tical resources. Its components are weakly coupled by technologies and highly cohesive by the meaningful connections students establish among them. Keywords: Learning, Autonomy, Evaluation, Environment, Personal. Recibido: septiembre de 2016Aprobado: noviembre de 2016

An overview of the areas of sibling research that laid the foundation for the modern understanding of sibling issues is presented. Attention is focused on the importance of sibling relationships for personal development, socialization and adaptation, and on the existing shortage of relevant work at the same time. The main stages of the development of sibling theory in their continuity are considered, starting from the first studies devoted to the search for a connection between the order of birth and achievements and dated to the end of the 19th century, to the term “individual environment” developed by the genetics of behavior in the second half of the 20th century. It emphasizes the role of A. Adler, who has made sibling a central feature of family life and personal development and has long determined the future direction of empirical family research. It shows a gradual shift in the interest of researchers from studying the influence of birth order, gender, and age intervals between siblings on personal characteristics. In this connection, an analysis of the nature of sibling relations on the basis of reciprocity and complementarity, undertaken by Dunn, is given. Early works on the jealousy and rivalry of children in the family, the study of the impact of parental differential treatment on them, as well as the influence of child characteristics on siblings in families with sick children are considered.

The article presents research data on the attitude of gifted children aged 9-10 years to different ages, their ideas about the future, setting short-and long-term goals. There is a great creative potential of giftedness, but how much it will be realized when reaching maturity depends not only on cognitive sphere, but also on the characteristics of the personality. The psychological literature contains contradictory information about the personal characteristics of gifted children; there is very little data on such aspect of personal development as orientation to the future, which determines the relevance and novelty of the study. The study involved 96 children with IQ≥115, enrolled in grades 3 and 4 of the gymnasium for gifted children, and 104 children enrolled in grades 3 and 4 of the secondary school under the traditional program (Moscow). We used the modified method of B. Zazzo “Golden age”, the projective method “Unfinished sentences” and the method of M.V. Matyukhina, which allows us to determine educational motivation in primary school age. It is shown that the majority of primary school children prefer youth as the age period of maximum opportunities. Gifted children are less likely than their peers with normative intellectual development to set short-range goals of good and excellent studies, self-improvement in activities that require physical effort, and more goals related to filling the lack of emotional support. The area of long-range goals related to youth is wider for younger students. Gifted children have a more pronounced orientation to high material security and freedom in its various manifestations, to a lesser extent – to the traditional construction of life (work, family, children).

The article addresses the problem of a current trend in foreign and domestic psychological science which is self-regulation among professionals working under extreme conditions. Self regulation in risk situations plays a crucial role in making decisions and choosing strategies of behavior under conditions of uncertainty, which is not only a rational process implemented by cognitive mechanisms but also an emotional process including people’s attitudes toward a situation. A set of extreme professions includes service of managers in the penitentiary service, which is associated with emotionally intense social activity and involves a constant presence of pronounced negative stressors. Studying the problem of self-regulation related to the interaction of managers with the socium of extreme nature focuses on answering the key question: What psychological and situational factors contribute to a sufficient level of self-regulation for successful activities under stress conditions? To analyze the system of self-regulation among managers in the penitentiary service we conducted a research using 6 standardized psychodiagnostic technique: Behaviour Self-Regulation Style (V. I. Morosanova, E. M. Konoz); Burnout Assessment, adapted by A. A. Rukavishnikov; Personal Aggressiveness and Propensity to Conflicts (E. P. Ilyin and P. A. Kovalev); Rapid Evaluation of Management Potential (N. P. Fetiskin, V. V. Kozlov, G. M. Manuylov); Evaluation of Communicative and Organizational Aptitudes (V. V. Sinyavsky and B. A. Fedorishin); Orientation Styles of Professional Communication (N. P. Fetiskin, V. V. Kozlov, G. M. Manuylov). The principal assumption in this research was that the structure of individual features of self-regulation (a self-regulation style) and its levels was determined by one’s personal characteristics and professional-environmental factors. The study objectives were: to identify the relationship between the level of self-regulation, overall mental state, and management potential in managers involved in extreme activity (working in the penitentiary service); to reveal psychological factors for optimization of managerial competencies under extreme conditions of professional activity; and to identify main difficulties and competence deficiencies for subsequent corrective and psychotherapeutic interventions. The research conducted enabled us: to study in details the peculiarities of self-regulation, overall mental state, and management potential among managers in the penitentiary system; and to determine which system components require intentional development in order to mitigate deficiencies and to increase the effectiveness of managers. Key words: self-regulation; manager; professional competence; extreme profession; penitentiary service.

The present study explored the relation between personal characteristics and romantic relationship satisfaction as mediated by communication. Couples in established heterosexual romantic relationships of at least 3 months (N = 96 couples) were recruited from an undergraduate population at a university through a Psychology Participant Pool System. It’s been hypothesized that there would be a relation between predicting variables — four of five-factor personality traits, emotional intelligence and self-disclosure — and relationship satisfaction as mediated by communication behaviours. Results indicate that for both genders, conscientiousness is related to one’s own relationship satisfaction which is mediated by communication. For females only, communication mediated the relation between emotional intelligence and her relationship satisfaction. For males and females, self-disclosure is related to both one’s own and one’s partner’s relationship satisfaction which is mediated by communication. Collectively, these results suggest that personal characteristics are related to communication which influences the relationship satisfaction of both members of a couple.
