Key

The processing of the results is carried out according to seven "keys" corresponding to the scales: "reliability", "neurological stability", "hysteria", "psychasthenia", "psychopathy", "paranoia", "schizophrenia". The subject can answer “yes” or “no” to each question of the test. Therefore, when processing the results, the number of answers that matched the "key" is taken into account. Each key match is worth one raw score.

The reliability scale assesses the degree of objectivity of the answers. If the total number of raw scores is equal to or exceeds 8, then the data obtained should be considered unreliable due to the desire of the subject to correspond to the socially desired type of personality.

Interpretation

9, 10 stans are considered high rates and reveal the practical absence of these signs.

6, 7, 8 stans correspond to a satisfactory norm and allow the presence of signs.

4, 5 stanes - borderline indicators, indicate the presence of these signs.

Less than 4 stanes - indicate a significant severity of the corresponding signs.

Scale of neuropsychic instability

Unsatisfactory level of behavioral regulation, violation of interpersonal relations, insufficient social maturity, violation of professional activity, violation of disciplinary and moral norms of behavior, lack of adequate self-esteem and real perception of reality, low adaptive capabilities.

High scores on the CPI scale indicate the presence of signs of neuropsychic instability in the subject, the nature of which is specified when interpreting the personality profile (graphical representation of the results on the scales of the questionnaire).

Hysteria Scale

Persons with high scores are characterized by posturing, egocentrism, narcissism, demonstrative and theatrical behavior, a desire to be in the center of attention, a desire to appear in the eyes of others as a significant personality, a thirst for recognition and originality, a tendency to exaggeration. Superficial attitude to the assigned tasks, their careless execution. Painful and inadequate reaction to public censure, non-recognition of "merits". Activities and behaviors are oriented toward external effects.

Psychasthenia Scale

Characterized by high anxiety, suspiciousness, indecision, self-doubt, especially in a dynamic environment, lack of time and information; increased vulnerability and a sense of inferiority, an endless analysis of one's actions, a tendency to doubt, low self-esteem and dissatisfaction with oneself; exactingness in the fulfillment of formalities, delicacy and tact, timidity, reduced activity; difficulty in making decisions, avoiding responsible tasks.

Psychopathy Scale

Increased excitability, aggressiveness, quarrelsomeness, stubbornness and perseverance; a tendency to violent reactions of protest and straightforward criticism; low level of self-control, imperiousness, a high sense of rivalry, the desire to defend, justify one's actions and beliefs at any cost; unpredictability of emotions and actions.

Paranoia Scale

Propensity to form "outstanding ideas" and "struggle for justice"; deep theorizing, straightforwardness in judgments, arrogance and self-confidence; the ability to captivate, organize people to implement their ideas; narrowness and one-sidedness of interests, distrust and suspicion, persistence in upholding beliefs, conflict in case of non-recognition of merit.

Schizophrenia scale

A tendency to theoretical constructions and unexpected conclusions, often not coinciding with the conclusions and judgments of others, originality and contemplation; emotional coldness, superficial empathy, misunderstanding of comrades, arrogance and rigidity, or, conversely, increased vulnerability and sensitivity; desire for immersion in one's own world, alienation, isolation, fruitless daydreaming, growing difficulties in communication.

Attention! It should be remembered that only the NNP scale can be subjected to an isolated interpretation, while all other scales - as a whole, and not as a set of independent scales. The rise on one of the scales indicates the greatest presence of signs of this scale in the general characteristic of the neuropsychic instability of the personality.

5.16. Method for diagnosing suicidal behavior S.A. Belicheva et al.

The technique is a modified version of the G. Eysenck questionnaire and the technique of D. Sachs, S. Levy "Unfinished sentences".

Suicidal behavior is a consequence of the psychological maladaptation of the individual, which occurs in the conditions of an experienced microsocial conflict in the presence of three factors: sociocultural characteristics of education, an unfavorable social environment, a combination of individual personality traits (personal anxiety, frustration, negative perception of the environment, lack of a conscious desire for life).

The questionnaire makes it possible to determine the level of anxiety, frustration, aggressiveness.

Attention! The questionnaire was standardized on a male sample under the age of 18. In our case, the scope is limited to psychodiagnostic measures with conscripts and cadets.

Instruction: There are 40 statements in front of you. They concern some aspects of your life, your character. Read them and decide if they are right for you. If the statement suits you, then circle the number "2", if it does not quite fit - the number "1", if it does not fit - "0".

Often I have thoughts in my head that I should get rid of.
I am afraid of the difficulties that I will face in life
Often I feel insecure.
In any business, I am not content with little, but I want to achieve maximum success.
I easily get close to people
I often delve into my shortcomings
Sometimes I have states of despair
It's hard for me to control myself when I'm angry
I get very worried if something suddenly changes in my life.
I'm easily convinced
I feel confused when I have difficulties
I prefer to lead rather than obey
Often I am stubborn
In difficult times, I sometimes behave like a child
Sometimes little things get on your nerves unbearably, although I understand that these are nothing.
I have a sharp, rough gesture
I'm reluctant to take risks
I can hardly bear the waiting time
I think I can never fix my flaws
I am vengeful
Even minor violations of my plans upset me.

Interpretation

The average score on each scale is 10. Exceeding it indicates the predominance of the studied quality in the personality structure.

When evaluating the proposals, the features of the testee's perception of the environment, the presence or absence of a conscious desire to save life, and some personal attitudes are analyzed.

Personal anxiety – the tendency of an individual to experience anxiety, characterized by a low threshold for the occurrence of an anxiety reaction.

frustration- a mental state that arises as a result of a real or imagined obstacle that prevents the achievement of a goal.

Aggression- increased psychological activity, the desire to take a leading position through the use of force in relation to other people.

Rigidity- difficulty in changing the activity planned by the subject in conditions that objectively require its restructuring.

Inventory of stress symptoms

Introductory remarks

The technique allows you to develop observation of stressful signs, to carry out a self-assessment of the frequency of their manifestation and the degree of exposure to the negative consequences of stress.

Stress Symptom Inventory Questionnaire

The total number of points scored is calculated.

Up to 30 points. You live calmly and intelligently, coping with the problems that life presents. You do not suffer from false modesty or excessive ambition. However, we advise you to check your answers with someone who knows you well: people with such a score often see themselves in a rosy light.

31-45 points. Your life is characterized by activity and tension. You are stressed both in the positive sense of the word (strive to achieve something) and in the negative sense (enough problems and worries). Most likely, you will continue to live the same way, just try to make a little time for yourself.
45-60 points. Your life is an ongoing struggle. You are ambitious and dream of a career. You are quite dependent on other people's assessments, which constantly keeps you in a state of stress. This lifestyle may lead you to success on a personal or professional front, but it is unlikely to bring you joy. Everything will flow like water through your fingers. Avoid unnecessary arguments, suppress anger caused by small things, do not always try to achieve the maximum, abandon this or that plan from time to time.

Over 60 points. You live like a driver who presses both the gas and the brake at the same time. Change your lifestyle. The stress you experience threatens both your health and your future. If a change in lifestyle seems impossible to you, try to at least respond to the recommendation.

Symptomatic questionnaire "Health in extreme conditions"

A. Volkov, N. Vodopyanova

Introductory remarks

A symptomatic questionnaire was developed to identify the predisposition of military personnel to pathological stress reactions in extreme conditions. Practical experience shows that a significant number of young people do not cope with the adaptation to military and naval service during the first 3-4 months. Most often, this manifests itself in psychosomatic and emotional disorders (pathological stress reactions). The questionnaire allows you to determine the predisposition to pathological stress reactions and neurotic disorders in extreme conditions of military service according to the following symptoms of well-being: psychophysical exhaustion (reduced mental and physical activity), violation of volitional regulation, instability of the emotional background and mood (emotional instability), vegetative instability, impaired sleep, anxiety and fears, a tendency to addiction.

The technique was created on the basis of a clinical and psychological examination of 1,500 healthy military personnel and 133 military personnel who first fell ill with neuroses and neurosis-like conditions in the first year of military service. Age of the surveyed 18-35 years. Of the observed signs related to the phenomenology of neuroses, 42 were selected, which were most common in 133 servicemen who fell ill with neurotic disorders as a result of working in extreme conditions of military service. Long-term application of this method has shown high validity and reliability of this technique.

Symptomatic Feeling Questionnaire (SOS)

Instruction: the proposed questionnaire reveals the features of your well-being in a given period of time. You need to unambiguously answer 42 questions: either “yes” or “no”.

Processing and evaluation of results. Answers "yes" - 1 point, "no" - 0 points. In accordance with the "key", the sums of points are calculated for each scale and the total number of points scored is the total indicator of neuroticism.

Up to 15 points. A high level of psychological resistance to extreme conditions, a state of good adaptation. 16-26 points. The average level of psychological resistance to extreme conditions, the state of satisfactory adaptation. 27-42 points. Low stress resistance, high risk of pathological stress reactions and neurotic disorders, a state of maladaptation.

"Key"

Questionnaire "Determination of neuropsychic stress"

T. Nemchin

Introductory remarks

The author of the NPN methodology is a professor at the Psychoneurological Institute named after A.I. V. A. Bekhtereva T. A. Nemchin used the results of many years of clinical and psychological studies conducted on a large number of subjects in an extreme situation when developing the NPN questionnaire. The first stage of developing the questionnaire consisted in compiling and systematizing a list of complaints-symptoms received from recipients in a stressful situation: from 300 students during the examination session and from 200 neurotic patients with leading symptoms in the form of phobias, fear, anxiety before performing painful procedures and stress- interview. At the second stage of developing the methodology, out of 127 primary signs related to the phenomenology of neuropsychic stress, only 30 signs were selected, which were systematically repeated during repeated examinations.

The highest frequencies of recurrence of 30 signs were found in the group of patients with neuroses. The different severity of signs in different subjects allowed the author to divide each of the items of the questionnaire into three degrees: weakly expressed, moderately expressed, sharply expressed, which received a conditional score in points of 1, 2, 3, respectively. According to the content of the questionnaire, all signs can be divided into three groups statements: the first group reflects the presence of physical discomfort and unpleasant sensations from the somatic systems of the body, the second group claims the presence (or absence) of mental discomfort and complaints from the neuropsychic sphere, the third group includes signs that describe some general characteristics of the neuropsychic tension - frequency, duration, generalization and severity of this condition. The questionnaire is recommended to be used to diagnose mental tension in a difficult (extreme) situation or its expectation.

Questionnaire NNP

Instruction: fill in the right part of the form, marking with a “+” sign those lines, the content of which corresponds to the features of your condition at the present time.

Floor……………………………………………………………………………

Age………………………………………………………………………

Type of activity (work, waiting for an exam, procedures, etc.)

………………………………………………………………………………

Professional affiliation……………………………………….

After the subjects fill in the right part of the questionnaire, the points scored are calculated. At the same time, 1 point is awarded for the “+” sign placed against subparagraph A; put against subparagraph B, 2 points are awarded; put against sub-item B, 3 points are awarded. The maximum number of points that the subject can score is 90, the minimum number is 30 points, when the subject denies having any manifestations of neuropsychic stress.

Table 2.1

Characteristics of the three degrees of CNP according to the questionnaire

(7.A. Nemchin)

According to the statistics presented by T. A. Nemchin, according to the sum of the points scored, the NPN index (IN) distinguishes three degrees of NNP and their characteristics (Table 2.1).

IN< 42,5 - the first degree of NPN - the relative safety of the characteristics of the mental and somatic state.

42,6 > IN< 75 - the second degree of NPN - a feeling of recovery, readiness for work and a shift towards sympathicotonia.

IN> 75 - the third degree of NPN - the disorganization of mental activity and a decrease in the productivity of activity.

There are certain differences between men and women at all stages of NPI.

Psychological stress scale RSM-25

Introductory remarks

The Lemyr-Tessier-Fillion PSM-25 scale is designed to measure the phenomenological structure of stress experiences. The goal is to measure stress sensations in somatic, behavioral and emotional indicators. The methodology was originally developed in France, then translated and validated in England, Spain and Japan. Translation and adaptation of the Russian version of the methodology were made by N. E. Vodopyanova.

When developing the methodology, the authors sought to eliminate the existing shortcomings of traditional methods for studying stress states, aimed mainly at indirect measurements of psychological stress through stressors or pathological manifestations of anxiety, depression, frustration, etc. Only a few methods are designed to measure stress as a natural state of mental tension. . To eliminate these methodological inconsistencies, Lemour-Tessier-Fillion developed a questionnaire that describes the state of a person experiencing stress, as a result of which there was no need to define variables such as stressors or pathologies. The questions are formulated for the normal population aged 18 to 65 for different occupational groups. All this makes it possible to consider the methodology universal for application to different age and occupational samples in a normal population.

Ottawa, Larcy at the University and in the hospital of Montreal, as well as Tessier and his colleagues at the hospitals of St. Francis of Assisi and St. Justine in Montreal. In Russia, the methodology was tested by N. E. Vodopyanova on a sample of teachers, students and commercial personnel in the amount of 500 people.

Numerous studies have shown that PSM has sufficient psychometric properties. Correlations were found between the integral PSM index and the Spielberger anxiety scale (r = 0.73), with the depression index (r = 0.75). The magnitudes of these correlations are explained by a generalized experience of emotional distress or depression. At the same time, divergent validity studies show that PSM is conceptually different from anxiety and depression research methods.

PSM Questionnaire

Instruction: a number of statements are proposed that characterize the mental state. Please rate your condition over the past week using an 8-point scale. To do this, on the form of the questionnaire, next to each statement, circle the number from 1 to 8, which most accurately describes your feelings. There are no wrong or wrong answers here. Answer as sincerely as possible. The test will take approximately five minutes to complete. Numbers from 1 to 8 indicate the frequency of experiences: 1 - "never"; 2 - "extremely rare"; 3 - "very rarely"; 4 - "rarely"; 5 - "sometimes"; 6 - "often"; 7 - "very often"; 8 - "constantly (daily)".

Note. * Reverse question.

Processing and interpretation of results. The sum of all answers is calculated - an integral indicator of mental tension (IPN). Question 14 is evaluated in reverse order. The higher the PPN, the higher the level of psychological stress.

PIT over 155 points- a high level of stress, indicates a state of maladaptation and mental discomfort, the need to use a wide range of means and methods to reduce neuropsychic tension, psychological relief, change the style of thinking and life.

PPN in the range of 154-100 points- average level of stress.

low stress, PPN less than 100 points, indicates the state of psychological adaptation to workloads.

Diagnostics of the state of stress

K. Schreiner

Introductory remarks

With sincere answers, the technique allows you to determine the levels of stress and can be used in autodiagnosis.

Instruction: Circle the numbers of those questions to which you answer yes.

1. I always strive to complete the work, but often I do not have time and have to catch up.
2. When I look at myself in the mirror, I notice traces of fatigue and overwork on my face.
3. At work and at home - continuous trouble.
4. I struggle hard with my bad habits, but I'm not succeeding.
5. I am worried about the future.
6. I often need alcohol, cigarettes or sleeping pills to unwind after a busy day.
7. Such changes are taking place around that the head is spinning.
8. I love my family and friends, but often I feel bored and empty with them.
9. I have not achieved anything in my life and I often feel disappointed in myself.

Processing of results and their characteristics. The number of positive responses is counted. Each “yes” answer is assigned 1 point.

0-4 points. You behave in a stressful situation quite restrained and know how to regulate your own emotions.
5-7 points. You always behave correctly in a stressful situation. Sometimes you know how to keep your composure, but there are times when you get turned on over a trifle and then regret it. You need to work on developing your own individual methods of self-control in stress.
8-9 points. You are overtired and exhausted. You often lose self-control in a stressful situation and do not know how to control yourself. As a result, both you and the people around you suffer. Developing self-regulation skills in stress is now your main life task.

According to the data obtained by the author of the methodology, it was noticed that the vast majority of bank employees have a score in the range of 5-7 points (80% of respondents). Approximately 18% of respondents have 8-9 points. And only about 2% have a score of 0-4 points. Consequently, most bank employees urgently need to increase their means of self-control in stressful situations.

V. Zhmurov

Introductory remarks

One of the causes of depressive states is the depletion of the neuropsychic potential due to prolonged stress or psychotrauma. Depression is a specific affective state of an individual, which is characterized by negative emotions, as well as the transformation of motivational, cognitive and behavioral spheres. In a state of depression, the individual experiences excruciatingly difficult experiences, such as longing, despair, fears, depression, guilt for past events, helplessness-infantility in the face of life's difficulties. Depressive states, as a rule, are characterized by low self-esteem, skepticism, a tendency not to trust anyone, lack of initiative, fatigue, a drop in activity, etc. The technique makes it possible to differentiate six levels of depression: apathy, hypothymia, dysphoria, confusion, anxiety, and fear.

Questionnaire

Instruction: From each group of indications, select and circle the answer 0, 1, 2, or 3 that best describes your condition.

Processing and interpretation of results. The sum of all marked options (points) of answers is determined. In accordance with this amount, an assessment is made severity depression.

1-9 points- depression is absent or very insignificant;
10-24 points- depression is minimal;
25-44 points- slight depression;
45-67 points- moderate depression;
68-87 points- severe depression;
88 points and more- deep depression.

Qualitative characteristics of depressive states

Apathy. A state of indifference, indifference, complete indifference to what is happening, others, one's position, past life, prospects for the future. This is a persistent or passing total loss of both higher and social feelings, and innate emotional programs.

Hypothymia (low mood). Affective depression in the form of sadness, melancholy with the experience of loss, hopelessness, disappointment, doom, weakening of attachment to life.

At the same time, positive emotions are superficial, quickly exhausted, and may be completely absent.

Dysphoria(“I can’t bear it well”, I carry the bad, the bad). Darkness, anger, hostility, gloomy mood with grouchiness, grumbling, discontent, hostile attitude towards others, outbursts of irritation, anger, rage with aggression and destructive actions.

Confusion. An acute feeling of inability, helplessness, misunderstanding of the simplest situations and changes in one's mental state. Super-variability, instability of attention, inquiring facial expression, postures and gestures of a puzzled and extremely insecure person are typical.

Anxiety. An obscure, incomprehensible feeling of growing danger, a premonition of a catastrophe, a tense expectation of a tragic outcome. Emotional energy acts so powerfully that peculiar physical sensations arise: “inside everything is compressed into a ball, tense, stretched like a string, is about to break, burst…”

Fear. A spilled state, transferred to all circumstances and projected onto everything in the environment. Fear can also be associated with certain situations, objects, persons and is expressed by the experience of danger, an immediate threat to life, health, well-being, prestige, etc. It can be accompanied by peculiar physical sensations indicating an internal concentration of energies: “it got cold inside”, broke off, “ hair is moving, chest is constricted, etc.

Methodology "Differential diagnosis of depressive conditions"

V. Zung, adapted by T. Baklashova

Introductory remarks

Depressive states occur as post-stress or post-traumatic reactions. The questionnaire can be used for the differential diagnosis of depressive states for screening diagnostics in mass studies and for the purpose of preliminary pre-hospital diagnostics. A complete examination takes 20-30 minutes.

Instruction: Read carefully each of the sentences below and cross out the appropriate number to the right, depending on how you've been feeling lately. Do not think about questions for a long time, because there are no right or wrong answers.

depression scale

Full Name……………………………………………………..

Date of …………………………...…………………………………………………………..

Answer options: 1 - "never" or "occasionally"; 2 - "sometimes"; 3 - "often"; 4 - "almost always" or "always".

Processing and interpretation of results. The level of depression (LD) is calculated by the formula: UD = S + Z, where S is the sum of the crossed out numbers for "direct" statements No. 1, 3, 4, 7, 8, 9, 10, 13, 15, 19; Z is the sum of the digits of the “reverse”, crossed out, statements No. 2, 5, 6, 11, 12, 14, 16, 17, 18, 20. For example, the number 1 is crossed out in statement No. 2, we put 4 points in the amount; statement No. 5 has the answer 2 crossed out, we put 3 points in the total; for statement No. 6, the answer 3 is crossed out - we put 2 points in the amount; statement No. 11 has the answer 4 crossed out - we add 1 point to the total, etc.

As a result, we get UD, which ranges from 20 to 80 points. UD<50 баллов - No depression.

50 - mild depression of a situational or neurotic origin.
60 - subdepressive state or masked depression.

UD > 70 points- depression.

Subjective Comfort Rating Scale

A. Leonova

Introductory remarks

The Russian version of the subjective comfort assessment scale was developed by A. B. Leonova. The technique is aimed at assessing the degree of subjective comfort of the functional state experienced by a person at a given moment in time. It consists of 10 bipolar scales, the poles of which are indicated by adjectives opposite in meaning, describing the characteristic features of a “good” and “bad” subjective state.

Instruction: read each of the pairs of polar statements below and on the rating scale note the extent to which your feelings at a given time are closer to one or another pole of the scale. The absence of any pronounced shift towards one or another experience on this scale corresponds to a score of "0". Please do not think for a long time over the choice of answer - usually the first feeling that comes to mind is the most accurate.

Full Name ………………………..…………………………..

Date……………………………… Time of completion………………………

Processing and interpretation of results. When calculating the test results, the scale is transformed from 7 to 1 points. 7 points are assigned to the most positive assessment of the trait, and 1 point - to the most negative. A score of 4 points corresponds to the neutral point "0".

Direct scales: 1, 2, 4, 5, 7, 9.

Reverse: 3, 6, 8, 10.

The subjective comfort index (SCI) is calculated as the total score for all scales. Interpretation of results:

Scale of differential emotions

K. Izard, adapted by A. Leonova

Instruction: Here is a list of adjectives that characterize different shades of different emotional experiences of a person. To the right of each adjective is a series of numbers - from 1 to 5 - corresponding to the increase in the varying degree of severity of this experience. We ask you to evaluate how much each of the listed experiences is inherent in you at this moment in time by crossing out the corresponding number. Don't think long about the choice of answer: the most accurate is usually your first feeling!

Your possible scores:

1 - "experience is completely absent"; 2 - "experience is expressed slightly"; 3 - "experience is moderately expressed";
4 - "the experience is expressed strongly"; 5 - "the experience is expressed to the maximum extent."

Processing and interpretation of results.Index of positive emotions characterizes the degree of positive emotional attitude of the subject to the existing situation. Calculated: PEM = I, II, III (Interest + Joy + Surprise).

Index of acute negative emotions reflects the general level of the negative emotional attitude of the subject to the existing situation. Calculated:

NEM = IV, V, VI, VII (Grief + Anger + Disgust + Contempt).

Index of anxiety-depressive emotions reflects the level of relatively stable individual experiences of the anxiety-depressive complex of emotions that mediate the subjective attitude to the present situation. Calculated: TDEM = VIII, IX, X (Fear + Shame + Guilt).

The questionnaire was developed by K.N. Polyakov, A.N. Glushko and is designed to identify neuropsychic instability and some character accentuations.

The questionnaire contains 276 statements and has the following scales:

credibility,

neuropsychic instability,

Hysteria

psychasthenia,

psychopathy,

paranoia

Schizophrenia.

Instructions to the examinees.

“Now you will be asked to answer a series of questions concerning some features of your state of health, behavior, character.

Be frank, do not think long about the content of the questions, give the natural answer that comes to your mind first. Remember that there are no "good" or "bad" answers. If you answer the question "Yes", put a "+" (plus) sign above the number in the corresponding cell of the registration form; if you chose the answer "No", put a "-" (minus) sign under the number. Make sure that the question number of the questionnaire and the cell number of the registration form match. You need to answer all the questions in a row, without missing anything. If you have any questions, please raise your hand.”
