Abstract: Military service is a special type of activity, in which the stress effect on a person plays a high role. The article is devoted to the study of the influence of cognitive abilities on neuropsychic stability of cadets, as one of the most controversial issues in the medical and psychological support of military personnel. The subject of the study is the influence of cognitive abilities on the neuropsychic stability of cadets. The object of the study is: 1,822 cadets of the Naval Polytechnic Institute aged 18 to 26 years with different levels of neuropsychiatric stability. The sample was divided into three parts according to the level of neuropsychiatric stability. Special attention is paid to statistical data processing as an important element of the scientific method of cognition of the world. The article provides examples of calculating a model for predicting the level of neuropsychiatric stability of the cadets. A comparative study of the cognitive abilities of cadets with different levels of neuropsychiatric stability was conducted. Mathematical modeling was carried out using discriminant analysis. Predictors of a cadet's neuropsychic stability are a combination of indicators of their cognitive development: the ability to establish logical relationships between concepts based on analysis and synthesis operations, the level of development of verbal and logical thinking; tempo characteristics of mental activity, the level of development of operational thinking and operational memory, as well as attention characteristics; the ability to transform visual images in space, the level of development of spatial-figurative thinking. It is shown that the level of communication abilities increases from low to high neuropsychiatric stability. At the same time, the differences between the indicators of cadets with high neuropsychological stability differ significantly compared with cadets with medium and low, the differences between groups with low and medium stability are determined at the trend level. A model for predicting the level of neuropsychic stability was obtained: Wilkes Lambda: 0.95595 approx. F (6.3634)=13.799 p

Abstract: The problem of post-combat personality changes in combat veterans over the past decades has become particularly important both in socio-psychological and clinical and organizational aspects. The purpose of the work: to study the features of post-combat personality changes of combat veterans. The subject of the study is personal changes of veterans of combat operations of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation. The object of the research is scientific publications on the research topic. Special attention is paid to both the historical aspects of the study of post-combat personality changes of veterans, as well as modern ideas about personality development and views on its pathological development. The conceptual approaches to the problem of post-combat personality changes of combatants within the framework of various models of combat stress and combat post-traumatic stress disorders are considered.  Materials and methods: the literature of the RSCI citation database was analyzed (elibrary.ru ) by keyword queries: "combat veteran", "combatant", "personality changes". The analysis includes 23 papers, 87% of which were published later than 2004. The review article provides an analysis of personal changes of Russian combat veterans in clinical, descriptive and conceptual directions. Descriptions of post-traumatic personality changes in combat post-traumatic stress disorder are presented. The close interrelation of the concepts of combat stress, combat mental trauma, and combat post-traumatic stress disorders is noted. Attention is focused on the important role of the social aspect in solving the complex problem of post-combat personal changes in combatants. Taking into account modern (sometimes very controversial) ideas about personality disorders and socio-psychological characteristics of society in the context of a special military operation, the problem of post-combat personal changes of combat veterans is, in our opinion, becoming increasingly relevant, which implies further comprehensive development of this problem.

Abstract: The author analyzes the problem of plagiarism in biomedical research. The specifics of biomedical research are considered, the primary international documents regulating the conduct of biomedical research on humans are provided, and the basic principles of such research are given. The features of plagiarism in scientific research are revealed, and its concept and varieties are considered. The specifics of the work of anti-plagiarism systems and the associated difficulties are analyzed. Plagiarism in biomedical research is a serious violation of research and publication ethics, which, if intentionally committed, leads to the discrediting of science and scientists and the illegality of research activities. The following results were obtained from the study: The use of borrowings undermines the authenticity of scientific papers and the journals publishing them, threatens the unity of the scientific process and the attitude of society toward science, and violates the literary rights of the authors of original texts and the property rights of copyright holders. Plagiarism can cause material, reputational, and moral harm to authors, such as public disclosure of data, loss of funding for ongoing research, difficulties in the professional growth of the authors of the article or the completion of research work, and in some cases, is a crime and leads to litigation.

Abstract: The article is devoted to the analysis of psychophysiological and personality correlates of successful professional education of would-be operators. The data of the socio-psychological study and psycho-physiological examination of young people showed that in modern demographic and social conditions, young men often do not have sufficient prerequisites for achieving successful military-professional adaptation during the training period, which places increased demands on the functional state of the body and the personality of the cadets. These indicators should be determined at the stage of enrollment in a military school, as well as in the process of training in the framework of medical and psychological support for students. Taking into account the cumulative expert assessments, the cadets are divided into two groups of learning success: “more successful” and “less successful”. The research methodology involves a comparative study in groups. The success of the cadets mastering the curriculum and the formation of professional competencies, including mastering the skills of the communications operators, are related to the presence and severity of a number of psychophysiological and personal qualities: strength and high endurance of the nervous system, high mobility and balance of the nervous processes; the level of verbal and non-verbal intelligence, the quality of logical and spatial thinking, high-speed cognitive characteristics, indicators of productivity and reliability (efficiency) of mental activity; high level of neuropsychic stability, development of communicative and moral qualities; military professional orientation and low propensity to deviant behavior and suicidal risk.

Abstract: Personality pathology that used to be called 'psychopathy' before and currently called 'personailty disorder' is the core phenomenon in psychic pathology that deals with borderline disorders but closely relates to endogeneous disorders. Still, this disorder still remains very unclear for clinicists, especially when it comes to its etiology, pathogenesis and even clinical borders. In such cases, O. Kerbikov believed it would be reasonable to appeal to the historical side of the issue and analyze certain discussion points that have been risen as personality pathology developed. The authors of the research analyze the origin of the term 'psychopathy' and focus on Russian priorities in the history of teaching about psychopathy. In Russia, V. Kandinsky was the first to describe psychopathy. According to O. Kerbikov, besides I. Balinsky who gave a definition of psychopathy, there should have been at least three names being recalled when we speak of psychopathy. These are V. Kandinsky, O. Chechotta and I. Balinsky, each of them made their own very special contribution to the research of psychopathy. For example, O. Chechott introduced the term 'psychopathy' into judicial psychiatry, I. Balinsky promoted the term among lawyers and others and defined psychopathy as an individual clinical phenomenon, and V. Kandinsky gave an in-depth description of personality pathology. 

Abstract: The article is devoted to the dynamics and structure of values of N.G. Kuznetsov Naval Academy students demonstrated during their attendance of the University. Students' values were defined using the Semantic Differential Inventory. The test was based on 12 bipolar seven-point scales. The research involved 302 students aged 17 - 26 years old including 53 first-, 80 second-, 87 third-, 48 fourth-, and 34 fifth-year students. The research methodology is based on comparative analysis of these groups. To deffine values and motivation of students, the author has used factor analysis of main components using Varimax normalized rotation. The leading values of students appeared to be family, career and successful future. Students related their ideal Self to military service and discipline, responsibility and being in a military environment associated with military service. As for real Self, they associated it with family and future, career and material prosperity.
