摘要:Background. The present research is carried out in the context of the conscious self-regulationof professional activity.Objective. It investigates the regulatory and personality predictors of reliability in rescueoperations under stressful conditions.Design. The research sample includes 87 rescuers (72 men and 15 women aged from 25to 50 years). Respondents were asked to complete the Morosanova’s Self-Regulation ProfileQuestionnaire – SRPQM, the Eysenck Personality Profile - Short (EPP-S), and the expert questionnaire“Professional Reliability of Rescue Operation” designed for this particular study.Results. On the basis of a correlation analysis, the structural model of the predictors ofaction reliability was constructed using the maximum likelihood method. Consistency indicesshowed a good agreement between the model and empirical data. The model containsthree latent factors: “Self-regulation”, “Neuroticism” and “Reliability of actions”. As the modeldisplays, the “Self-regulation” factor is a significant predictor of professional action reliability.There are two indicator variables for the factor “Self-regulation”: the self-regulation reliabilityconsidered as its stability in the stressful situations, and the rescuers’ levels of development ofprofessionally critical regulatory features - modeling of conditions significant for the achievementof goals and the programming of actions. The study results also show that personalitydispositions (by Eysenck) have only indirect influence on action reliability. As the structuralmodel reveals, the conscious self-regulation is a mediator in the relationship of neuroticismtraits and action reliability.Conclusion. The conscious self-regulation is a significant predictor of professional actionreliability under stressful conditions. It is also the mediator of the effects of personalitydispositions on the reliability of action.
