6.2.5. Some possible ways of practical usage of the method and the diagnostics results

6.2.5.1. Since reliability in extreme situations is a necessary quality for the representatives of a great number of professions (special subdivisions of law administring organizations, army, aviation, cosmonautics, life-saving service, firemen, customs officials and others), the reliability diagnostics, including the diagnostics of its integral index and indexes of its components, is necessary in the personnel-selecting process.

6.2.5.2. During professional training the diagnostics of reliability in extreme situations should be used to make a feed back in the process of its formation.

6.2.5.3. Besides, the exactness of sense-motive reactions under the strained conditions should be taken into account while selecting people in the groups of seizure and быстрого реагирования, safe-guarding service (especially bodyguards), while choosing drivers of high-speed cars, etc.

6.2.5.4. The index of FAH (CFAH) changes gives an idea of the peculiarities of individual reaction to extreme situation. That’s why it should be used for prognostication of individual manifestations of reliability (unreliability) under extreme situations.

It should be also pointed out that the CFAH diagnostics can be made not only during the experiment but also in real conditions of activity connected with extreme situations, for example during fighting, life-saving actions, solving main tasks, etc. In such cases the CFAH index may be taken into account while making a decision about the expediency of further usage of the specialist or his suspending, about the necessity of making a psycho-correction.

The CFAH indexes can also be used while planning some operations under extreme conditions. Due to the more exact prognostication of people’s activity in extreme conditions you can avoid some unexpected and uncontrolled situations.

6.2.5.5. The results of the coefficient of effectiveness of psycho-emotional states self-regulation (CSPSt) investigation are necessary, firstly, for inquiring about the examinee’s individual reliability. Secondly, the systematic investigation of effectiveness of psycho-emotional states self-regulation is necessary while teaching people the methods of psychic self-regulation as a means of a feedback.

§3. Stability diagnostics

6.3.1. General description

Stability – is an ability to reproduce the result. Stability becomes apparent both in extreme situation and in normal conditions.

Stability index as a component of reliability in extreme situation is a reiteration of the examinee’s testing effectiveness while repeating it several times. Taking into account all the above mentioned you can make a diagnosis of stability level on the basis of extra working up of the investigation figures described in previous paragraph.

6.3.2. Working up of the figures

6.3.2.1. Using the figures from column 6, table 19 calculate the coefficient of stability in calm conditions by formula:

_

n Х

Cstab. = _ (23),

Σ |xi – X|

where: Cstab. – coefficient of stability,

n – number of indexes,

X – index of the measurement by eye (in numbers).

Note: in order to convert the quantity of mistake in mm (points) into numbers you should use the diagnostic scale 2.4, appendix 2.

6.3.2.2. By analogy calculate the coefficient of stability in extreme situation. Use the figures from column 11, table 19.

Put down the result in the lower line of table 19.
