Abstract

This study is a part of the multipurpose research of the employees of the Research Institute of Hygiene, Occupational Pathology and Human Ecology Federal State Unitary Enterprise, Federal Medical Biological Agency 2019-2020, dedicated to the problem of psychophysiological responses under cognitive stress in young men with different levels of physical activity. The article gives a detailed description of the selected groups of men, which are has differences in the level of physical activity, as a consequence of the evaluated psychophysiological responses in the conditions caused by the emotional strain. The results of the evaluation of the psychological state, the use of methods of arbitrary self-regulation, the physical possibilities of carrying the load of aerobic power, the purposes of daily physical activity and its intensity are presented. The study used tests «Feeling, activity, mood», «Integrative Test of Anxiety»; questionnaire «Methods of Selection of Self-regulation Methods at the Examination»; Tests for the Treadmill «Intertrack-750»; questionnaires. The results of assessing the use of methods of arbitrary self-regulation, goals of daily physical activity and its intensity, psychological state, physical capabilities of aerobic power load tolerance are presented. Participants in sports professions are more likely to engage in arbitrary self-regulation. Physical education practitioners use different self-regulation methods less frequently, mostly using methods such as status analysis, self-suggestion and the inclusion of logical thinking. Persons without physical activity are distinguished from professional athletes by a marked disregard for the methods of presenting a good outcome of a situation and providing support to a close person (by 24.4% and 33.8%, respectively).
