Abstract

The article highlights the current problem of the influence of individual psychological factors on the process of adaptation of students in conditions of prolonged stress. Due to prolonged social and military upheavals, modern youth increasingly face psychological difficulties that complicate the process of learning, socialization and personal growth. Psychological factors such as anxiety, emotional stability, self-esteem, achievement motivation and the level of psychological resilience are studied. Considerable attention is paid to the analysis of coping strategies used by students in overcoming stressful situations, as well as the features of the formation of adaptive and maladaptive models of behavior. The presented results of the empirical study demonstrate that a high level of awareness, internal support and flexibility contributes to effective adaptation. It is shown that psychological support in an educational institution plays an important role in strengthening the internal resources of the individual. The potential of preventive programs for the development of stress resistance is also outlined. The author emphasizes the need to integrate psychoeducational activities into the educational space. The materials of the article may be useful to specialists in the field of educational psychology, teachers and higher education administration. Based on the data obtained, recommendations are formulated for practical psychologists on the prevention of maladjustment and support for the psych emotional state of students in conditions of instability and chronic stress.
