Abstract. Introduction. The article discusses the problem of testing a mobile version of the mindfulness-based program “OsNOVA” for reducing professional burnout among teaching staff.

Materials and methods. 60 educators with various backgrounds and specializations participated in this study. The following instruments were used: the MBI, the Ways of Coping Questionnaire, the BDI, the PSS-10 Perceived Stress Scale, the SF-12 questionnaire, the FFMQ, and the MAAS Mindfulness Questionnaires. The Student’s t-test was employed in the processing.

Results. It has been confirmed that the average score of students in the discipline taught by a teacher with high level of burnout is significantly lower than the average score of students in the subject taught by a teacher with low level of burnout. It has been established that when implementing a program to reduce the level of professional burnout among teaching staff, presented in a mobile format, there is a significant reduction in burnout in those subjects whose burnout was initially high. This is accompanied by an increase in awareness (primarily such components as Non-Evaluation, Observation and Awareness of Actions), productive coping strategies. Teaching staff with a relatively low level of burnout experienced an improvement in a number of indicators reflecting the level of the latter, as well as an increase in the quality of life. The effect achieved from the program persisted for at least one month after the end of active use of the OsNOVA mobile application.

Conclusion. The mobile application with the online version of the OsNOVA program can be used to prevent professional burnout among teaching staff. Additional work is planned to improve it.

Abstract. Introduction. Conflict resolution competence and psychological well-being are important for a psychologist but are often not formed by the time of training completion. This determined the purpose of the study, which is to identify the relationship between conflict resolution competence and the psychological well-being of future psychologists, because these relationships are essential for the process of psychological and pedagogical support for students while receiving psychological education. The correlation analysis findings are provided, taking into account the components of conflict resolution competence of psychology students (cognitive, emotional-personal, and reflexive-behavioral).

Materials and Methods. The study sample included 360 students in psychological training from three universities in the Russian Federation. 7 psychodiagnostic techniques were used, 6 of which were aimed at assessing conflict resolution competence: a technique for assessing the semantic index of negative perception of conflicts by A.I. Tashcheva, “Diagnostics of personal creativity” by E.E. Tunik, “Personal aggressiveness and conflicts” by E.P. Ilyina and P.A. Kovaleva, V.V. Boyko’s method for diagnosing interference in establishing emotional contacts, A.V. Karpov’s method for assessing personality reflectivity, and Thomas-Kilmann’s “Strategies of Behavior in Conflict” test. The seventh technique was aimed at assessing psychological well-being (Ryff Scales of Psychological Well-Being).

Results. Correlation analysis showed a significant number of relationships both between the index of psychological well-being and indicators of conflict resolution competence of future psychologists, and between conflict resolution competence and specific indicators of Ryff Scales of Psychological Well-Being, among which personal autonomy turned out to be the correlation “core”.

Discussion and Conclusion. Numerous relationships between the psychological well-being of psychology students and their conflict resolution competence allow us to talk about various possibilities for experimental work with these phenomena, which can be implemented in developmental programs.

Abstract. Introduction. The active involvement of Russian college students in the process of creating and implementing innovative technological and social projects on the part of the state actualizes the issue of developing the research competencies of teachers themselves in the secondary vocational education system. The purpose of the article is to scientifically substantiate the content of the research activities of a vocational education teacher and to present a model of such activities, including all the necessary components.

Methodology and Methods. The theory of activity (A.N. Leontiev, S.L. Rubinstein) served as a basis for modeling the structure of the activity under consideration. The authors enhanced the theory with the specifics of the teachers’ research activity through the analysis of scientific publications on this topic. The research methods used are system analysis and synthesis, as well as modeling.

The results. The scientific novelty of the research is determined by the content of the structural model of the vocational education teacher’s research activity presented in the article, which includes five components: needs, motive, goal, operational actions, and result. The practical significance of the work is seen in setting the content of the research activity as a starting point and the possibility of determining vectors for designing content, forms, and other necessary conditions for the vocational education teachers’ research competency development in the course of their professional development.

Abstract. Introduction. The article examines the problems of psychological readiness for future professional activity as an integral education, the dynamic transformations of the content characteristics of which are carried out in the process of specially organized influence. By analyzing current research, we can conclude that there have been positive changes in the phenomenon under study at different university stages as a result of gaming technologies. These changes have given students a greater sense of self-awareness and have improved their ability to evaluate options carefully and effectively in order to accomplish goals.

Materials and Methods. The participants in the study were 82 first-year students of the journalism major at Kemerovo State University (Kemerovo), Russian State University for the Humanities (Moscow), and Immanuel Kant Baltic Federal University (Kaliningrad). As diagnostic tools, the questionnaires assessing the personal qualities required for carrying out journalistic activities were used: the “Motivation for Professional Activity” method by K. Zamfir, modified by A.A. Rean; the method for determining the level of emotional intelligence developed by N. Hall; and the “Professional Readiness” method by A.P. Chernyavskaya. The obtained data were analyzed using Statistica 10.0 software. To conduct the forming experiment, a desktop career guidance game “Game of Scoring” was developed, which incorporates elements of the test on the academic discipline “Television Technique and Technology” and game inserts of TV projects “The Weakest Link” and “Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?”.

Results. The analysis of approaches to the essence and structural components of psychological readiness for professional activity in psychology is presented: the specifics are described, the interpretations of researchers regarding the substantive characteristics of the components of readiness of future journalists are considered, and the possibilities of the impact of career guidance games on the substantive characteristics of readiness are determined. The overall findings of an experimental study on the application of gaming technologies to the process of developing students’ psychological readiness for journalism at the initial stage of training are presented.

Discussion and Conclusion. It is substantiated that the formation of psychological readiness in student journalists for future professional activities is ensured through the use of gaming technologies, the variability of the content and technological support of which is determined by the stage of mastering professional competencies and enriching the experience of practical activities of students at the initial stage of study at the university.
