SUBJECTIVE ASSESSMENT OF THE ACTUAL PSYCHOLOGICAL AND SOMATIC CONDITION OF THE EMERCOM OF RUSSIA EMPLOYEES IN THE COURSE OF MEDICAL AND PSYCHOLOGICAL REHABILITATION

Relevance. The question of the appropriateness of using data obtained through questionnaires of subjective assessment of the psychological and somatic condition for the purpose of diagnosing the functional state of EMERCOM of Russia experts is the subject of many years of discussions among psychologists working with this contingent.

Intention. To study the possibility of using the data of the Giessen questionnaire of psychosomatic complaints and the SUN test with the purpose of assessing the functional state of EMERCOM specialists in the course of medical and psychological rehabilitation.

Methods. 111 specialists of the EMERCOM units were examined within the framework of medical and psychological rehabilitation based on results of monitoring or postexpedition surveys. A detailed psycho-physiological exam was conducted, including a psychological interview, a battery of psychophysiological techniques using Psychophysiologist and Reakor complexes, blood pressure measurements, Martine’s test and subjective state assessment methods (well-being – activity – mood and Giessen questionnaire of psychosomatic complaints). Functional indices of objective and subjective methods as well as correlations between them were studied before and after rehabilitation measures.

Results and Discussion. There are statistically significant differences in the results of the surveys before and after rehabilitation, as well as statistically significant correlations between the indicators of subjective assessment of the condition and objective data on psychophysiological follow-up and the effectiveness of rehabilitation.

Conclusion. Statistically significant correlations between the parameters of subjective questionnaires and the objective data on the functional state of the nervous and cardiovascular systems, as well as the adaptive abilities of the organism confirm feasibility and effectiveness of prenosological assessment of the functional state of EMERCOM professionals during medical and psychological rehabilitation if complex diagnostic equipment is lacking.
