RECREATIONAL VECTOR IN THE SYSTEM OF SUPPORT OF PSYCHOLOGICAL SAFETY OF A CREATIVE PERSONALITY
SUMMARY:
In psychological research on work and learning activities, the dyad “work-rest” as an important component of life cycles is given insufficient attention. In the context of investigating this issue, the phenomena of personality’s physical, psychological and mental health are considered. Creative health is understood as individual’s capacity for creating ingenious ideas, constructions, various works under conditions of overcoming considerable difficulties and obstacles. It is emphasized that creative health is not always connected with physical health and can contradict successful creative acts, which reduce personality’s psychological safety. The principally important point is that psychological health should be provided by, first of all, personality’s mental peace. According to the conception of psychological safety, the followingcomponents of it have been distinguished: sensor-perceptive, emotional, intellectual, general personal, mental. Based on the analysis and typification of people’s manifestations in critical life circumstances, the specific character of approaches to preventing and correcting essential negative informational influences on a number of population groups (adequate-hypertrophying, adequate-adequate, adequate-minimising, inadequate-adequate, inadequate-minimising, inadequate-hyperbolising) has been identified. The people belonging to the adequate-hypertrophying group do not change their behaviour in response to extreme conditions. In the ad equate-adequate group, the participants intensify their activities and improve its results in critical situations. The people from the adequate-minimising group slow down their activities and reduce activity when influenced by negative information. Having received some stressful information, the people from the inadequate-adequate group start frenzied, though not considered enough activities. People from the inadequate-minimising category try taking actions first, but after that, they become inactive rather quickly. The people belonging inadequate-hyperbolising group usually take no actions at all. It has been concluded that the system of personality’s psychological health should provide many - sided perception and recoding of signals by a personality – their under-standing, assessment, incorporation in the experience-based analysis and interpretations, decision aking on the basis of sensor-perceptive “acceptance” of information in terms of adequate behaviour. There is the need for integrated solving of the problem of supporting creative health and psychological safety of a personality by joint efforts of psycholo-gists, health professionals, and educators with efficient use of recreational facilities.
