Item Neurotic conditions: problem, diagnosis, correction by cognitive-behavior therapy(ALUNA Publishing House, 2021-11) Kolesnichenko, Lina; Колесніченко, Ліна Аліковна; Колесниченко, Лина Аликовна; Muzychko, Liudmyla; Музичко, Людмила Володимирівна; Музычко, Людмила Владимировна; Savchenko, Olena; Савченко, Олена В’ячеславівна; Савченко, Елена Вячеславовна; Kolesnichenko, Yelyzaveta; Lovegrove, AnastasiiaThe aim: To identify the relationship between neurotic states and hardiness as an indicator of mental health, to explore the possibility of using the cognitive-behavior therapy techniques to correct neurotic states in young people. Materials and methods: The methods “Clinical questionnaire for the detection and evaluation of neurotic conditions” (K. Yakhin, D. Mendelevich) and “Hardiness Survey” (S. Muddi, adapted by D. Leontev, O. Rasskazova) were used for diagnosis. Wilcoxon test was used to determine changes in the manifestations of neurotic states in the conditions “before” and “after” the application of cognitive-behavior therapy techniques. Correlation analysis was used also to distinguish the relationship between neurotic states, hardiness and its components. Results: It has been identified that various neurotic states are differently related to hardiness as an indicator of mental and social health. The level of anxiety and obsessivephobic disorders has inverse negative relationship with general level of hardiness (r = -0.31 and r = -0.34), but the level of asthenia has a positive connection with this indicator (r = 0.49). The level of neurotic anxiety is inversely related with the level of personal involvement in life (r = -0.27). The effectiveness of CBT techniques (psycho-education, distancing, cognitive reassessment) for the correction of neurotic states, namely: anxiety (p <0.01) and hysterical reaction type (p <0.01) was proved. Conclusions: Neurotic states are correlated with level of hardiness (an indicator of mental and social health) and personal involvement in life. The correction of neurotic states can be effectively carried out by means of CBT.Item The influence of unhealthy neuroticism on the peculiarities of personal decision making(ALUNA Publishing House, 2021-11) Savchenko, Olena; Савченко, Олена В’ячеславівна; Савченко, Елена Вячеславовна; Muzychko, Liudmyla; Музичко, Людмила Володимирівна; Музычко, Людмила Владимировна; Kolesnichenko, Lina; Колесніченко, Ліна Аліковна; Колесниченко, Лина АликовнаThe aim: To determine the influence of unhealthy neuroticism (the high level of personal neuroticism) on the properties of the decision-making process, to identify the differences in the decision-making process features of persons with high and low levels of neuroticism. Materials and methods: A comparative design was used with two contrasting groups, which differed in the level of neuroticism. Causal relationships were defined using one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA). The methods «Diagnosis of the neurotic personality tendency” (L. Vasserman), “Diagnosis of decision-making features” (D. Myroshnyk, O. Savchenko), “Locus of control” (O. Ksenofontova) were used for diagnosis. Results: It was identified that individuals with a high level of neurotic personality tendency have exhibited less self-control in the decision-making process (p <0.01), have formed a pessimistic expectations of the ways in which decisions should be fulfilled (p <0.01). A high level of neurotic personality tendency has occurred mostly in students with a high level of external locus of control (p <0.01), a low assessment of self-competence (p <0.01), low internality in the field of interpersonal relations (p <0.05), unformed willingness to overcome difficulties (p <0.05). The level of neuroticism is an important factor of the peculiarities of decision-making process (self-control (p <0.001) and optimistic expectations (p <0.02)). The general level of internality has determined the level of neurotic personality tendency (p <0.02) Conclusions: Unhealthy neuroticism, which manifests itself in a high level of neurotic personality tendency, is a risk factor of mental health, and it prevents timely make appropriate decisions. The high level of external locus of control mediately (through increasing the level of neurotic personality tendency) affects the procedural and effective properties of the decision-making process.
