Abstract

The article presents the results of an empirical study on the features of the emotional-volitional police officers are prone to psychosomatic disorders. It is established that such persons have noted the presence of the following health problems: gastrointestinal disorders, headache, pain in the heart, sharp fluctuations in blood pressure, sexual failure, complications in the respiratory organs. Negative psychophysical condition often actualized under the influence of conflicts in the service or quarrels at home.

Based on the explanation of the respondents, it can be argued that the reason for the emergence of psychosomatic disorders are: the lack of support and understanding in the family and referential environment, lack of vitality, loss of faith in the possibility to realize their potential; tendency to blame themselves for the problems of performance and everyday life; feelings of helplessness and insecurity, inability to withstand professional and life difficulties.

The necessity of the target corrective influence on such persons as the low level of positive mood, activity and health causes reduction of the energy potential of the individual, creating a kind of «vicious circle» in which the motivation of professional activities do not have the necessary reinforcements, thereby increasing situational and personal anxiety and the future development of psychosomatic personality.
