The content and essence of the concept "psychological readiness for activity", which was investigated by various scholars (B. Ananiev, S. Rubinshtein, K. Platonov, V. Shyrynskyi, V. Krutetskii, S. Lybin, L. Kandybovych, M. Diachenko, V. Barco, A. Lynenko, P. Rudyk, A. Vedienov etc.).The definition of "psychological readiness" for various types of activity (professional, labor, sports, military, etc.) is considered. The problem of readiness from the point of view of different theoretical concepts: functional, personal and complex is highlighted. It is analyzed the main types of structures of psychological readiness of a person for professional activity: three-component model (V. Shalaiev, M. Lohachov, O. Ivanova, M. Tomchuk), four-component model (O. Dobrianskyi, V. Varvarov, V. Yahupov, O. Mushynska, L. Karamushka, M. Moskalov, O. Topolenko), a five-component model (M. Diachenko, L. Kandybovych), a six-component model (L. Kondrashova). Considering the structure of psychological readiness through the prism of the study – "psychological readiness of the police officer for official activities", an analysis of the above approaches is carried out and a conclusion as to the optimal component and its internal certainty is made. The four-component model is proposed for the optimal structure of psychological readiness, and the motive, cognitive, operational, and personal components are determined as the structural components of psychological readiness of the police officer for official activity. The study opens the prospects for further research of the problem of psychological readiness of the police officer for official activity. The prospective directions include: the study of general characteristics of special and extreme conditions of activity and the specifics of psychological readiness of the police officer for professional activities.
