Abstract

Military service is a very specific type of activity, during which the human body can be exposed to a whole range of unfavorable factors of various etiologies. The most difficult period in military service is the initial adaptation period, when the physiological and psychological restructuring of the soldier's body occurs, his adaptation to life and everyday life, to the requirements of the military environment. Adaptation of military personnel to military activities affects the success of this activity, as well as the preservation of the health of military personnel. The study of the features of the process of adaptation to military service seems important for organizing high-quality training of personnel and achieving the ability of military personnel to withstand significant physical and neuropsychic stress. All this also applies to students of military educational institutions. In this case, motivation will be understood as a time-limited psychophysiological process that controls the behavior of an individual, setting its direction, organization, activity and stability; the ability of a person to actively satisfy his needs, while further acting in the interests of the state and society. One of the important areas of this work, which has great practical significance, is the study, assessment and forecasting of the adaptive capabilities of the cadets' body. Most often, psychological diagnostic methods are used to determine the level of adaptation, but recently instrumental research methods, in particular, heart rate variability analysis, have become increasingly widespread.

ABSTRACT

Military service is a very specific type of activity, during which the human div can be exposed to a whole range of

unfavorable factors of various etiologies. The most difficult period in military service is the initial adaptation period,

when the physiological and psychological restructuring of the soldier's div occurs, his adaptation to life and everyday

life, to the requirements of the military environment. Adaptation of military personnel to military activities affects the

success of this activity, as well as the preservation of the health of military personnel. The study of the features of the

process of adaptation to military service seems important for organizing high-quality training of personnel and

achieving the ability of military personnel to withstand significant physical and neuropsychic stress. All this also applies

to students of military educational institutions. In this case, motivation will be understood as a time-limited

psychophysiological process that controls the behavior of an individual, setting its direction, organization, activity and

stability; the ability of a person to actively satisfy his needs, while further acting in the interests of the state and society.

One of the important areas of this work, which has great practical significance, is the study, assessment and

INTRODUCTION

The aim of the study

was to examine the relationship

between the indicators of cardiointervalography and

the psychological components of the adaptive

potential of the individual (API) when assessing the

functional state of the div of 1st year cadets.

The object of the study

were cadets during their

training at the Armed Forces Academy during 2022-

2024. The research involved 59 cadets of the 1st and

2nd courses. The average age was 19.5±3 years. Group

1 included cadets serving on conscription and students

of the Military Academic Lyceum (TM HAL). The

number of subjects was 34 people. Group 2 included

cadets who entered the Academy after graduating

from secondary school. The number of subjects was 25

people.

METHODS

To study the adaptation processes, a multi-level

personality survey was conducted - according to the

Adaptability questionnaire (MLO-A), developed by

Maklakov A.G.

The methodology is based on the concept of

adaptation as a continuous process of active

adjustment of a person to constantly changing

conditions of the social environment and professional

activity. The effectiveness of adaptation largely

depends on how realistically a person perceives

himself and his social connections, accurately

measures his needs with the available opportunities

and is aware of the motives of his behavior. A distorted

or insufficiently developed idea of oneself leads to a

violation of adaptation, which can be accompanied by

increased conflict, disruption of relationships,

decreased performance and deterioration of health.

Cases of severe adaptation disorders can lead to gross

violations of military discipline, law and order, suicidal

behavior, disruption of professional activity and the

development of diseases. The questionnaire contains

165 questions and has certain scales. The results are

processed according to four "keys" corresponding to

the scales: "reliability", "neuropsychic stability",

"communicative potential", "moral normativity",

"adaptive abilities". The subject can answer each

question of the test with "yes" or "no". Therefore,

when processing the results, the number of answers

that match the "key" is taken into account. Each match

with the "key" is estimated at one "raw point".

The study of the functional state of the regulatory

mechanisms of the cardiovascular system was carried

out using the variation cardiointervalometry (VCI)

method. The removal, recording and analysis of

electrocardiogram signals were carried out using the

UPFT "Psychophysiologist" (OOO Medikom MTD,

Taganrog), with electrodes built into the device div.

The subject held the device in his hands, tightly

pressing his palms to the electrodes. Based on the

heart rate calculation, heart rate variability was

assessed at five functional levels: the functional state

of the div is normal; the functional state is close to

optimal; the functional state is acceptable; the

functional state is extremely acceptable; the functional

state is negative stress; the functional state is critical.

Mathematical and statistical processing of the

experimental material was carried out using the

Microsoft Excel spreadsheet editor and the Statistica

6.0 software package.

RESULTS

The results of psychological testing showed that in the

examined sample, 1 group of high and normal

adaptation (33.9%) and 2 groups (8.5%). With

satisfactory adaptation 1 group (22%) and 2 groups

(30.5%). With low adaptation 1 group (1.7%) and 2

groups (3.4%). 1 group of good adaptive abilities.

People of this group easily adapt to new conditions of

activity, quickly "enter" a new team, navigate the

situation quite easily and adequately, quickly develop a

strategy for their behavior and socialization. As a rule,

they are not conflict-prone, have high emotional

stability. The functional state of people of this group

during the adaptation period remains within the

normal range, performance is maintained. In group 2,

most people of this group have signs of various

accentuations, which are partially compensated in

familiar conditions and can manifest themselves when

changing activities. Therefore, the success of

adaptation largely depends on external environmental

conditions. These people, as a rule, have low emotional

stability. The socialization process is complicated,

antisocial breakdowns, manifestation of aggression

and conflict are possible. The functional state in the

initial stages of adaptation may be disrupted. People in

this group require constant monitoring.

2; close to optimal - in 50% of group 1 and 40% in group

2, acceptable - 11.7% of cadets in groups 1 and 28% in

groups 2, the functional state is maximum acceptable

in 5.8% of group 1 and 16% of group 2.

Thus, according to the obtained results, in the majority

of cadets in the first (50%) and slightly fewer in the

second (40%) groups, the functional state of the

regulatory mechanisms was close to optimal and was

characterized by normocardia (with a heart rate below

average values), i.e. an optimal heart rhythm, which

indicates a balanced influence of the autonomous and

central regulatory circuits. In this group, a slight

predominance of the trophotropic function was also

observed (responsible for such imbalances as

hyperhidrosis,

dilation

of

peripheral

vessels,

hypotension,

increased

intestinal

peristalsis,

bradycardia, hypersalivation), which indicated a

possible, slight predominance of parasympathetic

influences.

In another group of cadets, which included both

representatives of groups 1 and 2, the features of the

adaptation of the autonomic nervous system in the

first year of training consisted of a shift in the

autonomic balance towards the predominance of the

sympathetic nervous system. All indicators of heart

rate variability indicate a decrease in the ability of the

sinus node to concentrate the heart rate, high

mobilization of the circulatory organs, and an increase

in the degree of centralization of heart rate control.

Fig. 2. Indicators of the state of regulatory mechanisms according to the HRV indicators

Such manifestations of the shift of the vegetative

balance towards sympathicotonia can be associated

with the intensification of the educational process,

psychoemotional stress. This can be explained by the

following: high-intensity loads of the special

preparatory period of training increase the exhaustion

of the functional capabilities of the cardiovascular and

central nervous systems, which negatively affects the

state of regulatory mechanisms and, ultimately, the

physical condition of cadets.

Comparison of groups with a low and medium / high

level of PAP revealed significant differences between

them in a number of indicators of the CVS. Indicators

reflecting the activity of the parasympathetic link of

the regulation of the CVS were higher in more adaptive

individuals with a higher level of PAP. These were

mainly cadets of group 1.

Cadets with a low level of PAP were generally

characterized by the predominance of the influence of

sympathetic mechanisms on the state of the CVS. In

individuals with a low level of psychological

adaptability, a fairly pronounced tendency towards

less variability in intervals between heart contractions

is manifested. This feature reflects a certain stabilizing

effect of centralization of heart rhythm control, which

is mainly due to the increased degree of activation of

the sympathetic division of the ANS and a decrease in

the activity of the autonomous circuit of cardiac

regulation.

Considering that the above indicators prevailed among

the cadets of the 2nd group, it can be stated that the

cadets of this group are more likely to experience not

only overstrain of the physiological, but also

psychological regulatory systems. We believe that it is

necessary to take into account the upper limits of the

scales, the excess of which in the "average" cadet may

indicate the risk of failure of adaptation with an

inadequate change in the level of functioning of the

main biological systems of the div and psyche.

Thus, the study of the adaptation processes of 1st-year

cadets of military educational institutions using

psychological tests and heart rate variability indicators

allows us to identify a group with an insufficient level

of adaptation and the possibility of its failure. This will

allow for timely correction of disorders, enhance the

div's ability to adapt to new conditions, increase the

stock of functional reserves and the ability to mobilize

them in a timely manner, preventing depletion of

regulatory mechanisms.

CONCLUSIONS

1. Cadets of group 2 with low LAP scores are usually

characterized by the predominance of the influence of

the central control circuit in regulating the heart rate

and the effects of sympathetic mechanisms on the

state of the cardiovascular system. In group 1 cadets

with average/high LAP scores, the influence of

parasympathetic and sympathetic mechanisms on this

system is more balanced.

2. The indicators of the VCM in a state of physiological

rest can be considered as prognostic characteristics in

relation to not only biological but also psychological

adaptability of an individual.

3. Motivated adolescents (who have entered military

service and graduates of Military Academic Lyceums)

adapt to military service more easily.
