FRUSTRATION TOLERANCE OF STUDENTS-PSYCHOLOGISTS AS AN INDICATOR OF PROFESSIONAL AND PERSONAL MATURITY

Abstract

The article describes the peculiarities of the development of frustration tolerance among psychology students studying at the faculty of psychology and reacting to difficulties in achieving the goal. The study of frustration reactions was carried out using the Rosenzweig technique, which allows one to predict students-psychologists’ emotional and frustration reactions on various difficulties in achieving the goal. The article describes the established differences in the manifestation of emotional frustration reactions in different groups of students-psychologists and the features of their psychological defence. This forms the basis for creating psychological and pedagogical conditions for elaborating resistance for frustrating situations, i.e. development of frustration tolerance. It is necessary to develop frustration tolerance as a professional ability in the conditions of training and education of future psychologists. This will help overcome psychological barriers.
