STRUCTURAL-PHENOMENOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS OF AGGRESSIVENESS AND HOSTILE REACTIONS IN THE COMMAND WAREHOUSE OF THE COMMERCIAL AND PASSENGER NAVY

Abstract

During 2016-2019, 110 members of the command staff of the Merchant Navy (KTF) and 70 commanders of the passenger fleet (KPF) were surveyed. The study included the use of clinical and psychopathological, psychodiagnostic and statistical methods. The purpose of the work is to provide structural and phenomenological characteristics of aggression and hostile reactions in the command staff of the merchant and passenger navy, as a destructive response of the individual to excessive occupational stressors, depending on the specifics of their professional activities. Design, contingent and research methods. KTF are characterized by a higher intensity of manifestations of aggression, which are expressed in them at the level of increased values, and have a higher number of people with a high level of their severity, compared with KPF, which show a medium intensity of manifestations and a higher number of people with a low level of aggressive manifestations. This is due to an increase in such components of aggression as irritation and verbal aggression, against the background of average susceptibility to physical aggression. The vast majority of commanders of both types of navy show hostility reactions of increased severity, although among the CPF the number of people with an average level is higher than among the CTF. This indicates the presence of a destructive vector of affective-behavioral response in this contingent. This is partly due to the increased sense of guilt, which is observed both in the sample as a whole and in a larger number of KPF, compared with KTF. The obtained data should be taken into account when developing specific measures of psychotherapy and psychoprophylaxis for this contingent, which is the perspective of this study.
