Annotation:
There are many examples of crises and catastrophes in the history of mankind. Almost the entire
spectrum of natural disasters is possible in Kazakhstan. In particular, earthquakes, floods, fires in forests and
steppes, snowstorms, and others. In all mountain and foothill zones, there is a danger of landslides, the threat of
snow drift. In addition, there are situations that have arisen for man-made reasons. These catastrophes are the
result of human activity. Such extreme situations require the concentration of all physical and psychological
capabilities of a person. This is especially important for military personnel who often operate in extreme or
critical conditions. Psychological readiness to solve such situations gives the individual confidence in the
correctness of their own actions and, in the end, leads to a successful result.
The purpose of this article is to present the results of research in the framework of a master's thesis. The
main focus is on the analysis of the features of psychological training of military personnel to act in an extreme
situation. The studied problem is revealed by the authors from the point of view of modern approaches to the
psychological training of military personnel in a critical situation. The research methods used (analysis,
generalization, experiment) allowed us to reveal the depth of the problem relevant to military psychology. The
research is based on the results of modern research by Kazakh and foreign scientists. Approaches to the
interpretation of the essence of the content of the concept "extreme situation" are considered, and the factors that
determine the specifics of psychological training of military personnel to act in a crisis are highlighted. The
concept of "psychological readiness of military personnel to work in critical (extreme) situations" is defined.
Statistical results of the experiment are presented. The experimental activity carried out in the course of
experimental work has a high practical significance, since it was successfully tested through the implementation
of the work of the military unit 3176 "K" in Pavlodar and can be used in the psychological training of military
personnel. The article is devoted to the actual problem of psychology. The results presented in the article may be
useful for military psychologists.
